When Shelby and Mike decided to tie the knot, they chose the unique and industrial Cadillac Service Garage for their Pink and Black Wedding. Their wedding was a beautiful and fun celebration focused on joy, family, and unforgettable moments. There were so many special moments, from the emotional first look to the lively reception. The unique elements made their wedding truly one-of-a-kind.
Shelby and Mike, both dedicated professionals in the medical field, share a love for hiking and an obsession with their dog, Peyton. Their wedding was a testament to their fun-loving spirit and their desire to celebrate with friends and family. The theme of their wedding was pure joy and fun, ensuring everyone had an unforgettable time.
From the first moment we met Shelby and Mike, we felt an instant connection. Their warmth and enthusiasm made working with them a pleasure. Due to a GPS mix-up, we ended up having a bonus engagement session with them (more about that here), which only strengthened our bond. Shelby’s quiet sweetness perfectly complements Mike’s overflowing joy and emotion.
Mike’s emotional reaction during their first look was one of the highlights of the day. Overcome with feelings at the sight of Shelby, he laughed, cried, and expressed his love openly throughout the ceremony. The reception saw Mike cutting loose, singing at the top of his lungs, and dancing the night away, embodying the true spirit of their fun-filled celebration.
Shelby and Mike chose the Cadillac Service Garage in Greensboro, North Carolina, for their wedding venue. Shelby fell in love with its industrial feel and unique features. She mentioned, “Everyone seems to get married in barns these days around this area and I’m not much of a barn person. The industrial feel of CSG is different and there are so many fun and unique features.”
Events by Summer Joy provided impeccable planning services, ensuring everything ran smoothly. Shelby’s stunning dress from The Magnolia Bride was both comfortable and flattering. When she added the overskirt, she truly felt like a bride. After the ceremony, Shelby surprised Mike with a second look by removing the overskirt, and he loved the surprise!
The couple chose a color palette of pink, white, and green paired with classic black. This palette was reflected in the bridal party attire and florals. The bridesmaids wore beautiful Hayley Paige dresses purchased through Bella Bridesmaids, while the groomsmen and groom looked dashing in black tuxes from Men’s Wearhouse.
Shelby loved the floral arrangements by Flower Barre, which perfectly complemented their wedding style. DJ Q kept the party going all night, ensuring the celebration was lively and fun. The cake by Regi Originals was both a visual and culinary masterpiece, delighting all the guests. Pepper Moon Catering provided delicious food and an open bar package, enhancing the festive atmosphere.
Shelby and Mike’s wedding ceremony was filled with heartfelt and memorable elements. The enchanting melodies of a string quartet set a romantic atmosphere, while a bespoke wedding song, a surprise gift to the bride and groom, added a personal touch that left everyone in awe. The couple incorporated a ring warming ceremony, allowing their guests to hold and bless their wedding rings, infusing them with love and good wishes. All of Shelby and Mike’s nieces and nephews played special roles in the ceremony, adding a touch of familial love and joy. These thoughtful and unique elements made their ceremony a truly unforgettable and deeply personal experience.
To add a unique touch, Shelby and Mike included lottery tickets in envelopes that read “lucky in love,” hoping someone might win big on their special day. This fun addition was a hit with their guests and added an extra layer of excitement to the celebration.
Not to be outdone, the couple hired a talented Jazz Band for cocktail hour to delight guests!
Shelby and Mike’s pink and black wedding at the Cadillac Service Garage was a joyful and unforgettable celebration. Their focus on fun and their love for each other shone through every moment. From the emotional first look to the lively reception, their wedding was a beautiful testament to their joyful spirits and the love they share.
