Personalized Cocktail Napkins

The pair couldn't resist campy golden cocktail napkins from MikWright; "We tend to seek a balance between the high and low," Jeremy says.

Reception Tables

Each table had a different theme; perched atop the "music" table's orange shag carpet is a rack of 8-track tapes and a Woodstock LP tucked into a Fisher-Price record player. (Florist Candi Milliard rooted succulents in a retro cork planter and used craspedia to playfully suggest a disco ball.)

Playful Centerpieces

The "photo" table holds vintage View-Master discs, slide carousels, wooden frames, and a classic camera; larkspur, peach roses, scabiosa seed heads, and craspedia shoot out of the centerpiece's wheatgrass base.
