Saying “I Do” at Laural Mill
Laural Mill, a stunning southern Indiana wedding venue, provided the perfect backdrop for Kelsey and Chris’s fairytale wedding. From the charming rustic atmosphere to the warm hospitality, Laural Mill helped create a day filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories.
Finding the Perfect Fit
The couple’s journey with Laural Mill began when they attended a cousin’s wedding at the venue in 2021. They were immediately captivated by its beauty and charm, and the friendly and professional staff made a lasting impression. Hailey and Gina, two of our on-site coordinators at Laural Mill, were a constant source of support throughout the planning process, answering every question with a smile and ensuring the couple felt at ease.
Priorities and Must-Haves
For Kelsey, a smooth and enjoyable wedding experience was paramount. She envisioned a day that went off without a hitch, where everyone felt comfortable and had a great time. Thankfully, Laural Mill’s dedication to excellence ensures that our couples’ visions become a reality.
One unexpected moment highlighted Laural Mill’s commitment to exceeding expectations. When Kelsey realized she forgot her garter just hours before the ceremony, Hailey stepped in without hesitation. Using her creativity and resourcefulness, she crafted a beautiful garter for Kelsey from readily available materials.
We love when couples infuse their wedding with personal, unique touches that reflect their personalities. Chris and his groomsmen added a playful twist by wearing t-shirts featuring Marvel and DC comic characters beneath their suits. It’s these special details that make each celebration truly special and reflective of the couple’s style.
Moments to Remember
Among the many special moments of the day, Kelsey vividly recalls her journey down the aisle with her mother by her side. The emotions of the moment and the anticipation of seeing her groom waiting for her at the altar created a memory that will forever be etched in her heart. These life-long memories are our passion to host here at Laural Mill.
Creating a Dreamy Atmosphere
The couple opted for an elegant and simple wedding style, and Laural Mill’s natural beauty provided the perfect canvas. They chose a color palette of sapphire blue, light blue, dark purple, and light purple, inspired by the vibrant florals designed by their talented florist.
Laural Mill’s extensive collection of décor provided the perfect finishing touches. With flowing table runners, delicate bud vases, and repurposed bridal bouquets adorning the head tables, the space was transformed into a romantic and intimate haven for celebrating love.
Love, Fashion, and a Happy Ending
Kelsey’s wedding attire embodied her desire to incorporate tradition and sentimentality. She wore her grandmother’s pearls, a timeless heirloom piece, and her mother’s earrings, adding a touch of personal meaning to her look. Her hairpiece, adorned with a sapphire blue stone, served as her “something blue” and completed her elegant ensemble.
The couple’s love story began with a serendipitous encounter, and their proposal was just as memorable. While vacationing in Florida, Chris planned a surprise proposal, but Kelsey’s keen eyes discovered the ring hidden in their luggage! Despite the unexpected discovery, the proposal was filled with love and laughter, setting the stage for their happily ever after.
Looking Ahead
As they embark on the next chapter of their lives, Kelsey and Chris are filled with joy and excitement. They look forward to welcoming their baby boy in May and building a beautiful life together. Laural Mill played a pivotal role in their special day, creating a magical and unforgettable wedding that will forever hold a special place in their hearts.
