Bespoke details and heartfelt touches were at the heart of Kathryn and Hunter’s wedding-day blueprint. Sparked by the elaborate patterns of their custom-made invitations, the pair focused on covering their event in soft colors reminiscent of springtime. Beginning with the bride’s outfit, the floral illustration from their invites graced her pale blue shoes, her “something new” and “something blue,” along with the bridesmaids’ custom dresses, seamlessly weaving the bridal entourage into a picture of elegance and unity. The couple’s wedding theme, an enchanting garden party, was meticulously brought to life with peaches, delicate pinks, serene blues, verdant greens, sunny yellows and warm oranges. This chromatic harmony mirrored the couple’s wish for a jubilant yet refined celebration. The design tableau—from the tranquil blue linens and pastel blooms to the plush peach velvet chairs and the fairy lights twinkling above the lily pond—evinced an enchanting aesthetic. As the moon’s reflection glimmered on the lily pond, Kathryn and Hunter shared a serene moment at their exquisitely decorated sweetheart table. This pause in the whirl of celebration allowed them to revel in the bliss of their newly forged bond, encircled by the presence of dear ones. The emotional pinnacle of the evening took place when the bride’s nephew sang “Landslide” by Fleetwood Mac: Kathryn’s beloved anthem. Crafted lattice installations mirrored the venue’s natural splendor; thoughtfully arranged soft seating and late-night snacks by the dance floor ensured a deeply felt experience. The newlyweds and their loved ones joyfully danced well into the night.
