Classic and traditional—with a twist. That’s how bride Elizabeth Farnsworth describes the way she and now-husband Drew Frank wanted their Farmington wedding to feel.
“Yellow has always been my favorite color, so I knew I wanted to incorporate it into the design in combination with lots of greens used as more of our ‘neutral’ color,” she says. As luck would have it, Farmington’s ballroom was already yellow, so the couple only needed to add flowers to take the look to the next level.
Florist Shelby Spillar of Tupelo Floral Company created a handful of “statement moments” (as the bride says): flowers and ribbon hanging from the ceiling over the dance floor, overflowing arrangements at bar tables, and garlands over doorways.
“We are big on the little details and wanted all of the paper, linens, flowers, and all other personal touches and surprises throughout the night to be cohesive to tie in the vision,” Elizabeth says. “We are just so happy with how everything turned out.”

The couple started dating at the beginning of their fourth year at the University of Virginia.
“Having all of our favorite people in the place where we originally met and fell in love was the most amazing and full circle moment for both of us,” the bride says.
Elizabeth and Drew say they made an effort to stay on the dance floor for most of the reception. “It really made for the most fun night ever,” says Elizabeth.
After the wedding, the couple went to St. Barts on their honeymoon.
