Held in April, the sunlit day set a perfect backdrop for the couple’s union at The Estate at River Run. The start of the day was nestled in anticipation with the bride and bridesmaids getting ready in the Primary Suite. The groom with his groomsmen opted for the Pool House to prepare for the big day followed by a photo session in the Woodhaven Billiard Lounge. Easing into early afternoon, first looks took place in the Wedgewood Ballroom giving the couple a chance to let go of nerves for the ceremony.
Glistening warmth of the afternoon sun blessed the ceremony taking place on the stunning Bluestone Terrace, with its sweeping views of the surrounding estate. The space was adorned with classic white florals, creating an atmosphere of refined beauty. After the vows, the terrace was transformed for a sun-kissed dining experience. Guests dined outdoors, and the table settings glowed in gold and white, perfectly in harmony with the day’s luxurious feel.
As the celebration transitioned indoors to the Wedgewood Ballroom, the couple’s personalities shined. A custom set of Alpha-Lit Marquee Letters bearing the couple’s last name provided a playful yet sophisticated focal point. The ballroom was transformed into a dance party with a black-and-white checkered floor. Guests danced the night away dressed in cowboy hats, carried by the joyous energy
The evening concluded with a breathtaking fireworks display outside the estate, illuminating the night sky and closing the day on a magical note. This April wedding was a perfect blend of timeless elegance and fun, leaving guests with lasting memories of a day filled with love, laughter, and celebration.
