Modern, Sophisticated Wedding at The Millbottom


Becca and Brenton are some of the most genuine, thoughtful people I know. They were a dream to partner with on their wedding day as it was filled with modern sophistication, special attention to detail, and energy!

Thank you to the crazy talented Lighter Focus Photography for capturing these amazing moments!


GETTING READY

Becca recalls of when they first met, which was a complete chance encounter on a sidewalk. The two ran into each other outside of The Penguin Dueling Piano Bar, located in Columbia, Missouri. Sparks flew immediately, and this couple has been inseparable since. As Becca writes to Brenton, “When dad called me a princess, I never realized that I’d live a fairytale. Thank you for being there to let me be who I always wanted to be.”

BRIDAL PARTY

Becca chose a stunning a-line gown from Nolte’s Bridal, located just outside of Kansas City. She opted out of a traditional ivory gown in favor of something with a bit more color. Becca’s bridesmaids wore white halter-top gowns from Bella Bridesmaids. The men sported navy suits from Menswearhouse.

ST. ANDREW’S CATHOLIC CHURCH | CEREMONY

Becca and Brenton chose to exchange their vows at Becca’s home church in Tipton, Missouri. Gathered together with their families and loved ones, the two said their, “I dos.”

The two selected The Millbottom as the host venue for their reception; a blend of modern and industrial, it provided the perfect backdrop for their sophisticated wedding styled with white florals and brass accents.

PORTRAITS

I love how Maid of Honor, Madeline, describes the love Becca shares for Brenton, “Brenton made her nervous, happy, and a little scared in the beginning because deep down she already knew he was the one”

THE MILLBOTTOM IN JEFFERSON CITY, MISSOURI | RECEPTION

Becca and Brenton started off the evening with cutting their wedding cake, followed by 4 toasts from friends, then first dances with loved ones. As tribute to their chance meeting on a sidewalk years before, the two entertained their crowd with a dueling piano group that brought down the house. I loved every minute of this day, and I am so thrilled to have worked with Becca and Brenton this year. Congratulations to the happy couple!

Missouri Wedding Planner, Coordinator

Hi, I’m Terra!

Founder of Plan it Terra

Born and raised in Missouri, I’m a grateful wife and dog mom to my rescue pups, Hildi & Lola. I’m a true believer in the pursuit of bold dreams, learning from mistakes, and staying curious.

I'm a girl that lives in her Chacos during the summer, and I'm typically always wearing lipstick. Yes, red is my preference! When I'm not helping engaged couples plan weddings, you'll find me on stage teaching Jazzercise classes. Needless to say, creating engaging experiences that leave people feeling good afterwards is my passion. Seriously!

I’ve created this blog and my wedding packages to empower you to plan an awesome wedding day and put all of the stress and obligations straight into the dumpster! Now that sounds like a party.
