The Bride Mandy Briggs Hall, 32
The Groom Andrew (Drew) Cochran, 31
The Date June 12
Drew and Mandy wanted a classic, but still very vibrant wedding colour scheme so they chose navy with pops of sunny yellow, for a non-traditional twist they incorporated the game “Clue” to represent their careers in the legal field.
Cheery yellow roses, orchids and ranunculuses, broken up with strategically placed white blooms, made up Mandy’s bouquet.

Mandy’s second cousin wore a navy ring bearer suit with a handmade navy and white, polka dot bow tie.

Mandy and Drew said their vows outdoors overlooking a beautiful marsh at Orton Plantation Gardens.

The guys wore small clusters of yellow craspedia tied with a yellow and white ribbon and fixed with a button.

A custom blue and white polka dot pillow, an Etsy.com find, matched the ring bearer’s fun bow tie.

To keep their guests cool, the couple served icy lemonade in Mason jars during the wedding ceremony.

Further tying into their Clue theme, the couple used printed evidence tags as their escort cards and hung them from an antique door.

Guests typed their notes to the couple on a cool vintage style typewriter- which suited their ‘Clue’ theme perfectly!

Clear vases of single yellow flowers were grouped around décor that could be found in a room from Clue, like these items from “The Observatory.”

Guests were assigned to tables named after Clue game locations, based on the information on their evidence tag escort cards.

The bride and groom cut into a monogrammed white and yellow cake, which topped a tower of cupcakes in a variety of flavours.

Mandy and Drew rode off in a decorated pedi cab after leaving their wedding through a tunnel of sparklers.
