The Bride Alison Pearlstein, 29, works in real estate and interior design The Groom Josh Goldblum, 34, owner of Bluecadet Interactive in Philadelphia The Date September 24 Alison and Josh wanted their day to reflect their personal styles, so they decided on a bohemian garden design with a modern twist. A color palette of deep aubergine, white, gray and green brought their vision to life. -- Amanda Black

Ivory, soft-yellow and lavender garden roses, greens and hydrangeas were one of the many tablescape designs.
Antique-looking framed table numbers were nestled in with low centerpieces and large candle lanterns.
Wanting to create a warm setting, Alison and Josh decorated the tables with an eclectic mix of items; giant aged candelabras, fabric runners, and low, lush arrangements.
For a nontraditional spin on tablescapes, the couple topped antique china with seasonal fruits like figs.
Florals and figs decorated the simple white cake. For a moment away from the party, Alison and Josh cut it in private.
For an unexpected look, artichokes and berries were tucked into the centerpieces.
Alison wore her hair in a messy side updo with a delicate jeweled hairpiece.
Aubergine letterpress invites gave guests a first look into the wedding day design.
Alison carried a white-and-green bouquet of lady's slipper orchids, gardenias, lilies of the valley and roses.
Long, farm-style wooden tables and stone urns created a homey vibe inside the sailcloth reception tent.
Tented escort cards printed with a deep-purple type guided guests to their seats.
Test-tube-like vases of various flowers decorated the escort card table.
