Arianna Pugliese & Stephen Menzel

Arianna and Stephen’s bohemian chic wedding at Coles Garden Wedding and Event Center is making all of our terracotta dreams come true! The couple met online, and their connection was undeniable after the first date. Stephen got down on one knee with an electrifying proposal. Arianna said, “In August 2019, we got engaged on our favorite beach surrounded by a tropical storm, but right above us were clear skies. As he placed the ring on my finger, lightning struck (literally)!” After getting engaged, the pandemic hit, forcing Arianna and Stephen to postpone their original wedding date back a year. However, the long-awaited nuptials were worth the wait as the couple said their “I do’s” with their family and friends in attendance.

The terracotta details within Arianna and Stephen’s big day create the chic bohemian aesthetic that we love so much! From florals to table numbers to the invitation suite from Eros Studios, every wedding detail contained the beautiful and trendy terracotta color! As we all know, some of the most beautiful weather in Oklahoma happens in September. Arianna and Stephen took advantage of the fall temps and had their ceremony outside. Arianna walked down the aisle under three center arches lining the aisle from Wooden Hearts Boutique filled with greenery and terracotta blooms from Poppy Lane Design. Amanda Watson Photography’s images of the couple under the floral arches are some of our absolute favs from the day!

After becoming Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Menzel, the couple and guests made their way to the reception hall. Inside, rentals and decor from Marianne’s Rentals transformed the space into a bohemian dream! Poppy Lane Design added to the magic head table by hanging greenery and florals from the ceiling– absolutely stunning. Arianna and Stephen celebrated their night with dinner, dancing, and a delicious slice of cake from Amy Cakes. If you want to see more bohemian chic details, keep scrolling!

Arianna and Stephen’s Favorite Wedding Memory:

“We loved having the ceremony outside in the gardens at Coles Garden Wedding and Event Center with the arches from Wooden Hearts Boutique and placing the overhead floral above the tables at the reception! It was truly magical.”
