Lauren married her soulmate on a beautiful fall day in the backyard of her parent’s house. The atmosphere was cozy with fireplaces roaring, pumpkins and mums scattered about, and hot apple cider being served.

Joe was nervous as he was about to see his bride. As he turned to see Lauren, who looked like she stepped out of a dream, tears began to fall from his eyes. They embraced and knew this was the moment they would remember the rest of their lives.

As guests walked in the driveway, they were greeted with a choice of a bourbon cider cocktail or a cinnamon cider. As they held onto their warm drinks, they walked the path to the back terrace, where a warm fireplace ceremony was waiting for them.

The outdoor ceremony was filled with passion and tears and vows, and ended with a kiss promising forever.

Guests enjoyed homemade baked brie and cocktails after the ceremony, and then grabbed a velvet blanket while entering the reception tent, to keep them cozy and warm.

I loved the deep purples tones, from the bridesmaids dresses, to the bouquets, to the reception linens. At each table, there were bouquets of flowers, wood centerpieces, and burlap table numbers.

The evening continued with hours of dancing underneath thousands of twinkle lights and ended with a romantic sparkler exit.

Congratulations Lauren and Joe!
