Katie and her bridesmaids got ready inside the Bridal Suite at The Estate on Second while Kyle and his groomsmen posed for photos outside. Once Katie was ready, she met Kyle on the terrace for their first look. A tap on the shoulder signaled Kyle to turn around, and when he did, smiles met his and Katie’s faces. The couple showered each other in compliments, then were joined by their wedding party for group pictures. The bridesmaids were dressed in maroon, and the groomsmen wore black. Together, they created lasting memories before lining up for the ceremony.
Guests entered the Crystal Ballroom where candles lined the aisle and a wooden arbor decorated in white florals and greenery stood tall as the ceremony backdrop. Once everyone was seated, the wedding party made their entrances. In front of all their closest friends and family, Kyle and Katie recited their vows, exchanged rings, and sealed the ceremony with a kiss.
Roasted Red Cherry Tomato Bruschetta and Fig, Goat Cheese and Mascarpone Tarts were tray passed during cocktail hour while guests mixed and mingled. While everyone snacked on hors d’oeuvres and dipped on refreshing beverages, the newlyweds snuck away for golden hour romantics around the venue. Upon their return, everyone headed back into the Crystal Ballroom for reception.
Tables were topped with fresh floral centerpieces and sparkling chandeliers hung above the romantic reception space. Katie and Kyle made their grand entrance, shared their first dance, and took a seat at their sweetheart table. Chicken Parmigiana, Penne Alla Checca, Roasted Italian Zucchini, and Caesar Salad were served, and toasts were shared. The menu was selected by the bride and groom with help from our event specialist, Arielle. After dinner, the newlyweds cut into their wedding cake and invited guests to indulge in a little something sweet. The evening ended with everyone out on the dance floor showing off their best moves and wishing the bride and groom well.
