Love is Like a Garden
Huge thanks to Tayler Ashley Photography for sharing all these incredible pictures with us!
Cultivating a timeless love, much like planning a wedding, takes a bit of work.
These two made it look easy!
Olivia finished getting ready in our Bridal Suite while Austin patiently awaited their First Look before the ceremony.
We always adore a flower crown, and the simple elegance of this one perfectly complements the delicate lace of Olivia’s dress.
First Looks aren’t only for Grooms; Fathers love surprises too!
The ceremony was on our Front Lawn, and everyone melted seeing Austin’s face as Olivia came down the aisle!
This area has ample space for large guest groups, and with a few umbrellas, even the hottest summers can be tamed.
Blush and Slate Gray are a fantastic color combination to balance a formal yet cheerful look!
Always our favorite picture of the night!
What a spectacular backdrop for the perfect glowing moment!
Now, let’s discuss the details.
These love birds had heaps of little hidden custom quirks to make their special day a little extra fun!
Not only did each groomsman have fun socks, but Olivia had the cutest wedding shoes all glammed up for the occasion.
During cocktail hour, guests enjoyed delectable appetizers from Personal Touch Dining.
Baked Brie with Warm apricot Sauce, Spinach and Artichoke Stuffed Mushrooms, and Coconut Shrimp with Mango Puree constantly circulated so each guest could have their fill.
As well as the sweet little “Let Love Grow” escort card/wedding favor plants, the happy couple asked that everyone sign their guest book letters.
As always, our clients have the option to use our lawn games throughout the night.
As you can see, they’re a hit with guests of all ages!
All the gorgeous floral arrangements were from the ever-talented Four Seasons Flowers, who added a little magic to our Castle with their romantic flair!
Soon, it was time for the Grand Entrance and First Dance.
Austin and Olivia took advantage of our elevated Front Entrance to sway for the first time as Husband and Wife so all their guests could see.
For dinner, Personal Touch Dining treated us all to a fully stocked buffet!
Herb Crusted Mahi Mahi drizzled in a Lemon Chardonnay Sauce lured in guests while the Citrus and Oregano Marinated Tri-Tip carved to order delighted and impressed. Sides included hearty Oven Roasted Parmesan Potatoes, Fresh and colorful Veggies, and a dazzling Field Greens Salad.
After dinner, the whole party enjoyed the warm night air and danced out under the stars!
Sunset Mobile Music kept everyone on the dancefloor to shimmy and shake the night away!
Raspberry Crumble Bars, Mango Cake Bites, Churro Shooters with Chocolate, and Caramel Sauce decked the dessert bar.
Personal Touch Dining knows just how to satisfy the biggest sugar fiends!
It was a dream working with Olivia and Austin, and we wish them all the best in their bright future together!
We’re so honored to have been chosen to share in their special day.
Thanks to all our rockstar vendors who help us do what we love!
We couldn’t have done it without you all, especially Personal Touch Dining, who Caters and Coordinates our special events while also Managing our venue!
