Kelly + Katherine’s wedding day was a love story that gave early spring vibes in every sense and overflowed with love, the biggest smiles and genuine, natural joy all day long……cozy, sweet, relaxed, sentimental and heartwarming at a venue full of exposed brick and stone with hanging bistro lights, a soft white floral ceremony arbor of hydrangeas, sweet peas, ranunculus, roses; reception tables set with sage green glass goblets, ribbed smoke gray glass votive candles and taper candles in a mauve/desert rose tone…
It was a bright and beautifully sunny day in mid-March with no clouds in the sky. Kelly and Katherine got ready together in the same hotel suite with their VIPs but chose to get dressed in separate rooms and share an intimate first look before heading out for portraits on the water.
Katherine’s dress had lace botanical appliques with a soft pink undertone while Kelly’s dress was a simple and modern satin dress in a halter top style – both dresses had pockets and both brides wore similar [unplanned!] hairstyles in a clean, low bun. Their letterpress invitation suite had soft sage green/gray text with an ivory envelope lined in a botanical print.
During their intimate indoor ceremony, both brides exchanged solid gold wedding bands against a backdrop of a minimalist metal arbor covered in all-white blooms, including delicate trailing pear blossoms. Mother Bradley has known Kelly’s family for 20+ years, marrying her brother before this; the sweetest moments during the ceremony included some of their guests standing up and sharing prayers as a lovely surprise to the couple.
Espresso martinis were passed during cocktail hour and muted earth toned garden spring linens covered the high-top courtyard tables. The vibe was relaxed, sophisticated and softly lit by a glow of candles and hanging bistro lights above…
Kelly + Katherine, there are not enough words to describe how much I enjoyed and am so grateful to have had the honor of documenting all the love and support that surrounded you on your wedding day — it was absolutely magical! You both are the kindest souls that deserve all the happiness in the world and make every room better by simply being in it.
I can’t wait to celebrate you every March 16 for years to come!!!
