A word from the Bride...
My husband and I are a "Tinder Love Story". We met online in the middle of the covid pandemic. By the end of our first date, we made plans to see each the next day and then the next day and everyday since :) He proposed on our one year anniversary at the same spot where we had our first kiss.
Our style was "country chic". My dress was Burke by Maggie Sottero. Boho/country style dress with petal-shaped hemline and that same petal-shaped lace throughout. I wore white sandals for the ceremony and switched to cowboy boots for the reception. Bridesmaids were in a full length dusty blue dresses. Groom and groomsmen wore khakis, white button down shirt and suspenders with dusty blue tie. Guests were encouraged to dress as "country chic" as they would like and they did not disappoint!
We had a few unique things at our wedding. Since the wedding was in Pennsylvania and most of our guests were driving in from NJ and NY, we had a "pre-ceremony cocktail hour" in addition to the regular cocktail hour. This allowed our guests to have a drink and get something to eat after driving in that day. We also had donkeys in the cocktail hour space that our guests could interact with. During cocktail hour and the reception we had games such as corn hole and Giant Jenga outside for our guests to play. Once it got dark, we lit up a bunch of fire-pits outside and had a s'mores bar. These were all packages that the venue offered that we are so glad we incorporated into our day. Our caterer made the most amazing bacon bar for cocktail hour that was gobbled up by our guests so quickly! Our caterer also put together a great ice cream bar for dessert that our guests loved!
