White Stag Head and Floral Bar Backdrop

"I wanted something that really would incorporate John into the theme of the wedding," explains Gwen. That's when she came up with the idea for a stag as a massive centerpiece behind the bar. "Hunting is a very important hobby of John's and I was happy I could have it incorporated into the day in a way that wasn't all fluff. It actually ended up driving a lot of our style," she adds.
