They Understood the Assignment
When Kerri and Glenn toured Keswick Vineyards and I found out that Glenn was in the navy, I told him that if they got married here, he had to wear his uniform and they had to re-enact the last scene from the movie, “An Officer and a Gentleman”. That has always been one of my favorite movies. So, when they arrived for their rehearsal, Glenn was wearing his uniform and remembered our deal. So, they quickly posed for me that scene when Richard Gere comes into the factory to carry Debra Winger off in his arms to live happily ever after. I think that was the sweetest thing for Glenn to be wearing his uniform at the rehearsal knowing he wasn’t going to wear it on their wedding day, but a promise is a promise☺ What do you think??? Pretty cute, huh?
So, on Friday, June 14th, Kerri and Glenn were married at Keswick Vineyards and had their dream wedding surrounded by family and friends. Let’s start with the ceremony. They chose to be married in front of Edgewood Estate right in front of the fountain, which they chose to adorn with florals. Between the florals in the fountain and the blooming lavender and day lilies surrounding the fountain, simply breath taking!
When couples choose this location, our bride is secretly taken through the vineyard to make a surprise entrance from the back versus entering from the front of the estate. Just look how beautiful this ceremony is in this location! Right after the ceremony we had our golf cart ready to swoop this newly couple away for some private time before returning for some photos with family members.
Their seating chart and circular bar at cocktail hour framed with swagged bistro lights had everyone in aww. Just look at the beautiful table assignment wall! Right next to it was a couch and table for people to sit at and take a polaroid photo at.
And let’s talk food. DELICIOUS!!!! So many amazing appetizers that looked as pretty as they tasted. And dinner was a plated surf and turf dinner. And then, to top that off was these delicious cupcakes that had flavored icing like lemon, orange and strawberry. All those flavors reminded me of the fruits they had incorporated into their centerpieces. Always a nice touch!
Kerri and Glenn, thank you again for trusting Keswick Vineyards to host your dream wedding at. I know what a wonderful time you and your guests had. May the two of you enjoy a lifetime of adventure and happiness!
