Robyn and Andrew had been engaged for so long that their friends and family started asking them "so when are you guys getting married??" and after fielding the question long enough, they decided to throw an engagement party to announce their wedding date to their closest friends and family. Little did their guests know that the engagement party, scheduled for April 1st (April Fool's Day), would be revealed as their actual wedding day! The result was an incredibly unique and stylish SURPRISE wedding that the couple pulled off without a hitch!
How could you not have this much fun at a surprise wedding?!
The bride's super stylish Badgley Mischka slip-ons, in a coordinating blue-green tone with just the right amount of sparkle!
The venue was decorated with Boho elements that reflected Robyn's trademark personal style, and included a marcrame arch 'selfie booth' backdrop that was later flipped to become the ceremony setting.
As Robyn and Drew grabbed the mic to thank their friends for attending and to announce their upcoming wedding date, Drew revealed "we've chosen our wedding date... and it's right now, TODAY!"
Soon after the announcement, Robyn quick-changed into a chic stylish dress and carried a natural flowing bouquet.
Drew threw on a sharp black suit jacket and donned a boutonniere to instantly look the part of the groom.
Their closest friends (who were asked to wear certain attire under the guise of coordinating for photos) were thrilled that they were able to stand up in their wedding as witnesses during the exchange of vows.
Every interaction between the couple exuded love and elation (and FUN!)
The couple looked stylish in their black and white attire with chic boho accents.
They celebrated with their guests with signature drinks (named after their grandparents), dancing, and delicious food.
A copper and natural wood marquee sign (handmade by the groom) hung above the bar.
A bountiful charcuterie display also included fruit, veggies, crackers, and cheese for guests to enjoy.
Tables were decorated with dusky blue linens, accented with green jewel tones, and featured natural wood chairs and table numbers.
The couple sat at a feasting table with mis-matched emerald glasses, succulents, and plenty of flowing natural greenery.
Accents of copper and other metals could also be found on tables, along with delicate succulents planted in wine corks at every place setting.
Large blooms and leafy greenery sat at the center of guest tables, adorned with candles set in beds of moss and mercury glass.
Vintage boho furniture sat outside for guests to relax on during cocktail hour.
Guests enjoyed delicious food from a local food truck that featured a live chalk artist creating a one-of-a-kind masterpiece inspired by the bride and groom!
Forty-Two Ten's outdoor space provided the perfect setting for this boho-chic wedding.
A variety of adorable desserts satisfied guests with a sweet tooth.
An assortment of mini gourmet donuts served on copper doilies.
A basket of flip-flops, paired with a cute sign, let guests know it was time to kick off their shoes and dance the night away!
How absolutely gorgeous did this couple look dancing beneath the night sky?!
String lights and uplighting created the perfect party atmosphere!
