Through a kaleidoscope of joy, Amanda Holder and Claude Swain’s nuptials unfolded on a bright fall day. The entrance, adorned with bespoke notes of gratitude and an old train bell for toasts, heralded a celebration steeped in personal significance. Underneath her gown, Amanda’s purple boots shimmered, a reflection of her essence and the day’s vibrancy. The ceremony, set against a floral-adorned fountain, was intimate, with deeply personal vows. “My favorite moment was when Claude exclaimed, ‘Oh, f***!’ seeing me at the aisle,” Amanda recalls, laughing. The reception was a feast for the senses, with dishes and drinks named after their dogs, capturing the couple’s love and memories. The evening glowed under statement-making purple lighting, echoing their lively spirits and a color that holds significant power in their lives. The finale—a private dance—was the perfect send-off for the newlyweds, marking the beginning of this exciting new chapter in their lives.
