The Bride Megan Blickley, 29, an account supervisor for Harrison and Star The Groom Jeff Good, 33, a benefits manager for Johnson & Johnson The Date May 19 From the beginning, Megan and Jeff didn't want their wedding to have a theme; they simply wanted to focus on making their venue and décor unique to them as a couple. They let the fresh peach, coral and neon palette do most of the talking and added in showstopping elements like the ceiling installations Megan made.

To match her feminine lace dress, Megan wore her hair in a low bun with a delicate tulle veil tucked into it.
The Ceremony
The bridesmaids carried smaller versions of the bridal bouquet. Megan asked them to choose their own dresses in shades of peach and coral.
The groomsmen wore their own navy or gray suits with peach and coral ties.
