From the gorgeous rich palette of Fall colors to the intricately designed paper goods, Rachel and Dave's Jewish nuptials at The Ritz-Carlton Fort Lauderdale is brimming with beautiful details all photographed by the talented ladies of VUE Photography. Wearing a fabulous pair of platform slingback Christian Louboutin heels, a figure hugging strapless gown with lace detailing and pretty jewels from her delicate pearl bracelet to stunning brooch, Rachel looked beautiful. Her bridesmaids wore cocktail dresses in a rich cobalt hue that made their vibrant makara orchid bouquets pop. Dave and his groomsmen wore tailored black suits, white button downs and black ties with makara orchid blooms as their boutonnieres. The ceremony started with the signing of the Ketubah, which featured a striking cobalt background and intricately designed laser cut overlay. With the walls draped in a soft cream and the floors neutral all the focus was on the brilliant decor from Xquisite Events. Deep mahogany chairs were set with cushions in pumpkin, while tall cylindrical vases with floating yellow orchids decorated the aisleway leading up to the magnificent chuppah. Completely covered in Fall inspired blooms, including cherry brandy roses, sunflowers, deep red trailing amaranthus, makara orchids, white hydrangea blooms and greenery the chuppah provided a gorgeous centerpiece as the couple exchanged vows beneath it.Designed in the striking palette of pumpkin, golden yellow, chocolate and maroon the stunning decor continued into the reception. Tables were draped with pumpkin pintuck linens and set with the deep mahogany chivari chairs and pumpkin cushions.
