July 2 Wedding at Highgrove






The first wedding of July was a hot one... but it was a beautiful day with tons of special personalized touches! Elizabeth and Justin love to travel and they love Italy- and they wanted to make sure those two things were incorporated into their wedding day. Guests were first greeted with a picture perfect display on our wood farm table of antique globes, maps of Italy, luggage, and other decorations. They were then seated under the pergola for an outdoor ceremony, complete with lavish floral decorations. Cocktail hour on the outside patio featured Fresh Fruit cosmos, Prosciutto Bruschetta, and homemade Parmesan Cheese Straws served in vintage cigar boxes. Dinner was served in our ballroom where the tables were covered in Satin Lilac linens, amazing vintage inspired floral centerpieces, and antique Italian postcards (which served as table numbers). Family Style inspired dinner was complete with Caesar Salad, Field Greens with Walnuts and Grapes, Salmon with Tropical Salsa, Beef Tenderloin, Truffle Risotto, and Baby Carrots and Snow Peas-- it was a dinner to remember! Another special highlight was Leon the Artist, who drew caricatures for guests throughout the night-- a fun alternative to favors. Guests also enjoyed red velvet cake and were treated to cupcake favors as they left for the night. The bride and groom made their way off to Italy (of course) for their honeymoon!
