a gorgeous, green garden party
“Share the same space for a minute or two,
And you love me till my heart stops”– talking heads
Crissy + Rick’s garden party wedding was certainly one for the books! Even a hurricane couldn’t put a damper on the fun. After a traditional Catholic church ceremony, the pair headed on over to the lush and beautiful Willowwood Arboretum for a a tented celebration with friends and family. The personal touches were perfection – from the bold & summery striped bridesmaids’ dresses to the vintage car in honor of Rick’s late father, to the Talking Heads key fob favors and blue grass band serenading in the garden. The food, drinks, and dancing kept flowing all night as the sky opened up above. Crissy + Rick – may your roots always grow strong and deep. Cheers!
