Playful, squiggly details and a cheerful color palette set the tone for this clean, contemporary, and refreshingly colorful wedding design against the stunning backdrop of the Rooftop Terrace at The Charmant Hotel in La Crosse, Wisconsin.

A team of talented local vendors collaborated to create an inspiring wedding look that feels like a modern spin on a spring garden celebration. Filled with vibrant florals and trendy, whimsical touches, the design is perfect for couples seeking a fresh, contemporary vibe for their special day.

Featuring Orange Door Weddings, Haley Hundt Photos, Whimsical Design & Decor, Pennycress Studio, Crumbtastic Cakery, Castle Walls Wedding, Charlotte's Bridal & Formal Wear, Pamperin Bridal Lounge, and 4 Sisters Events, let yourself be inspired by all the creative and colorful details below!



Whimsical Design & Decor meticulously crafted every stationery and signage element, from the invitation suite to the welcome sign, name cards, dinner menus, table numbers, seating chart, bar menu, and more, all reflecting the day's fun, colorful, and squiggly theme. They added an extra layer of playful personalization by customizing the tablecloth and acrylic cake display with the brides' names in a wavy vinyl pattern, seamlessly tying together the vibrant and contemporary aesthetic.



Pennycress Studio brought a burst of freshness and garden-inspired charm with their vibrant floral creations. The soft textures of sweet peas and ranunculus in bright, light colors were perfectly paired with sleek, modern vases, creating a modern, lively, and romantic late-spring vibe for the celebration. Their arrangements, featuring a mix of whimsical blooms and contemporary designs, showcased the exceptional beauty and bespoke nature of their local, garden-grown flowers.



Expertly coordinated by Orange Door Weddings, thoughtful design and unique rentals set the stage for a cheerful and memorable celebration. Trendy matcha green and lavender tones were beautifully complemented by vibrant pops of oranges, yellows, and blush pinks, creating a dynamic and eye-catching palette that contrasted with the crisp white dotted table linens.

Playful, bubbly shapes were woven into every aspect of the design, from the whimsical table settings to the creative decor elements. Orange Door Weddings' attention to detail and flair for contemporary design ensured that every element contributed to a cohesive and fun atmosphere, making the event both stylish and unforgettable!



Castle Walls Weddings' "Wavy Figs" mural served as a showstopping backdrop to this funky and fresh celebration! Their hand-painted creation added an artistic and whimsical focal point that perfectly tied into the vibrant and playful atmosphere.



Both brides exuded elegance in chic, fashion-forward styles from Charlotte's Bridal and Formal Wear. The first bride dazzled in an off-the-shoulder gown featuring a sheath silhouette with bold bodice boning and shimmering silver buttons cascading down the back, creating a stunningly sleek and modern look.



The second bride made a bold statement in a contemporary white suit, perfect for brides seeking a stylish alternative to a traditional gown. The sleek, deep V silhouette added a touch of daring sophistication, while the subtly patterned lapels in a white-on-white design offered a unique textural element. A vibrant lapel floral boutonniere provided the perfect pop of color, completing her modern, chic ensemble.



Pamperin Bridal Lounge elevated each bride's look with elegant hair and makeup that perfectly complemented their modern styles. One bride wore a chic updo with soft, face-framing tendrils, paired with subtle, glamorous makeup featuring defined eyes and peachy pink lips. The second bride showcased a sleek low ponytail with loose, face-framing curls and a statement pearl headband for a contemporary touch. Her makeup was polished and refined, with bold brows, warm eyeshadow, coral pink cheeks, and complementary lip color, completing her fresh, stylish look.



Haley Hundt Photos brilliantly captured the day's vibrant energy and playful elements with her signature bright, natural light style. Her keen eye for detail and fine-art approach perfectly showcased this fresh, contemporary, and expressive wedding inspiration, making her work ideal for modern couples seeking a dynamic and engaging visual narrative.



The Rooftop Terrace at the Charmant Hotel provided a scenic and stylish setting for this colorful, contemporary wedding design. With sweeping panoramic views of downtown La Crosse, the venue's blend of historic charm and modern luxury made it the perfect location for an outdoor soirée!



Crumbtastic Cakery showcased their creativity with a striking two-tiered, clean white cake, highlighted by a playful green squiggly detail cascading down the side. Displayed on a clear acrylic column from 4 Sisters Events, the cake was further enhanced by vibrant blooms rising up through the column's interior and chic, wavy vinyl lettering running vertically on the outside. This fusion of minimalist elegance with bold, modern design created a captivating centerpiece that seamlessly integrated the stunning and delicious treat into the event's vibrant and contemporary theme.
