Loving a Little Lavender! | Christopher & Cecilia
When Christopher and Cecilia got married at Keswick Vineyards on Sunday, September 29th they only had 61 guests in total. It was one of our smaller weddings this year, but both the ceremony and the reception were so full and alive! The love that this couple shared is evident in every single one of their photos, even after 11 years they still giggle like teenagers when they’re together. Christopher told me how through their whole relationship they have been equals, which is why he did not even get down on one knee when he proposed! So, for the ceremony they retained that equality in coming down the aisle together. It was a powerful and unique set up, using the fountain as a centerpiece to create two aisles that merged into one, just as the two families were becoming one!
Lavender was big theme in this wedding, from the blueberry/lavender lemonade by The Catering Outfit, the dried lavender being thrown at the ceremony, the lavender colored cake by Maliha Creations, the lavender colored linens and bridesmaids dresses, down to the color of Christopher’s tie and the lavender art on the escort cards! What a beautiful way to tie everything together.
One of my favorite parts of the décor though was the light-wall draped behind Cecilia and Christopher at their reception. The drapery of this wall matched the drapery that we already have strewn through the tent and the twinkling lights added a magical element that we could not take our eyes off! We wish the two of them the happiest ever after imaginable! What a treat it was to play such a huge role on their wedding day.
Thanks too to all of the vendors who put this spectacular event together!
