A Dreamy Garden Affair at Cypress House, Pennsylvania
When it comes to weddings that feel like a chapter pulled straight from a storybook, this Cypress House celebration is the definition of thoughtfully curated magic. Nestled in the picturesque hills of Pennsylvania, the day unfolded with an air of whimsical elegance, where every detail—no matter how small--was a reflection of the couple’s impeccable vision. From the moment guests arrived, it was clear that this was no ordinary wedding. The atmosphere was bursting with pastel blooms and vintage watercolor tones that perfectly captured the essence of a romantic garden party. The couple chose a timeless vintage theme delicately woven throughout the day in a manner that felt both elegant and effortlessly personal. The bride made a breathtaking entrance in not one but two stunning gowns, both adorned in intricate floral lace appliqués that echoed the surrounding floral wonderland. Her look was ethereal, blending classic bridal charm with a touch of fashion-forward flair. Perhaps one of the most unforgettable elements of the day was the 360-degree ceremony seating, which created an intimate, immersive experience where the couple was truly surrounded—both literally and figuratively—by love. Their vows were exchanged surrounded by a soft canopy of blooms as sunlight filtered through the trees, painting the moment in a golden glow. After the heartfelt ceremony, guests were welcomed poolside for cocktails and appetizers. The bar featured custom signature drinks, each topped with a personalized drink topper featuring the couple’s beloved furry friends—a playful and heartfelt touch that left everyone smiling. A curated menu of garden-inspired bites paired perfectly with the breezy atmosphere. In another nod to their creativity, the couple brought in a caricaturist to sketch guests throughout the evening. These creative portraits served as a fun, memorable keepsake—turning a traditional wedding favor into a unique work of art. As the sun dipped low, the reception tent came to life beneath layers of lush greenery and delicate florals. Blush-toned candles flickered softly beside delicate champagne coupes, each one topped with a tiny butterfly, tucked amidst the blooms—a detail so small and intentional it could’ve been missed, but for those who noticed, it was pure magic. The show-stopping centerpiece of the evening was a vintage tiered cake draped in hand-piped detailing, almost too beautiful to eat. But the live band truly brought the tent to life, keeping guests on their feet and dancing long into the night. Every inch of the day was infused with romance, creativity, and a deep appreciation for beauty in the details. From handpicked flowers to heartfelt cocktails, and butterfly-kissed glassware to sketches of smiling guests, this Cypress House wedding will be remembered not just for its beauty, but for the love and care poured into every moment. A day for the books—and a celebration for the hearts. Thank you to the incredible vendor team that helped make this day truly magical.

Their wedding day, held at the historic Columbus Chapel, was a testament to their unique love story and their shared passion for life and music.
Underneath the sprawling branches of a century-old tree, Jess and Bill exchanged heartfelt vows, their love echoing amidst the gentle rustle of leaves and the soft hues of green that adorned the natural setting.

'It's not about smiling for the camera - it's about smiling because you've found the love of your life.'
There's no quote more fitting to describe Jackie. Her smile is one of those that is just so genuine and contagious that it spreads to everyone around her. From start to finish, this smile never left her face. From wedding crashers and cookie thieves (don't come at us high schoolers; we will chase you all day to protect our clients and our weddings) to the last song, these two had the absolute best day. Jackie and Cody exchanged vows on the croquet lawn at Toftrees on one of the clearest July days we've ever seen. There wasn't a single cloud in sight, fitting as blue was one of the bride's colors. When designing their reception space, the couple asked us for one thing: "Don't give us the standard boring wedding linens," and we were happy to oblige! Our favorite Cambridge Sky linen perfectly fit the couple's color palette and desire for a unique patterned linen. Pair that with the softest hues of sage and gold, and we were instantly in love. The group came to party, and that they did, filling the dancefloor until the very last song. Congratulations Jackie + Cody! Thank you to the amazing vendor team that helped make this all possible.

Jess and Bill celebrated their marriage on the historic grounds of the Boal Mansion, located in the heart of Boalsbug, PA. They had the most picturesque June day with the clearest skies we had seen all summer. The couple exchanged personal vows under the most stunning maple tree, surrounded by all their closest family and friends.
The couple had one goal for their wedding day: that it felt like THEIR wedding day. And it was precisely that. The day was filled with the sweetest, personalized, and meaningful touches from start to finish. The bride's cousin hand-painted the most beautiful sketch of the mansion, which we were thrilled to include in their invitation design. We also incorporated it throughout the reception, from the signage to the table numbers and menu cards. Even the food was personal, a buffet of the couple's favorite foods prepared by Nittany Catering, cousins of the bride. This was a full-blown family affair! When the groom is in a band, you know you're in for a day filled with fantastic live music. Starting with the best man playing the bride and groom back down the aisle, all while walking back down himself! The entertainment didn't stop there; various artists played throughout the night, closing out with the groom himself. His father even joined him on stage for a few songs. What better crowd to perform for than your new bride and all your closest family and friends? Congratulations Jess + Bill! Thank you to the amazing vendor team that made this all possible! Rooted Farmstead, Nittany Catering, Cakeshop By Tati, J Stephens Salon, Kairos Creative Co., Best Event Rental, Country Creek Farmhouse Tables, Happy Valley Nomadic Spirits, Jessica and Kevin's day can only be described by one word: fun. The couple exchanged personal vows in front of 220 of their closest family and friends on the most perfect August day. Emily from Pocketful Of Poseys absolutely blew us away (as she always does) with the most stunning ceremony arch that was exploding with white roses and deep greenery, which was only made more spectacular by the best rolling mountain views in the area. When you have two PSU Alumni getting married, it only makes sense to have a Penn State legend officiate your wedding, right? We were so excited to work with Mike the Mailman!
The couple's style was clean and elegant, with classic pops of white roses and deep greenery everywhere. And we mean everywhere; greenery was draped from every corner of Rolling Rails. This venue was completely transformed from the doorways and mantle to even the ceiling! Of course, we can't forget to mention the 20' greenery wall. Keeping in the tone of Penn State traditions, the couple chose their favorite local band, Lowjack, who absolutely packed the dancefloor. A late-night buffet of pizza, chicken fingers, nachos, and wings helped guests refuel throughout the night to keep the party going. This group came to celebrate the love of Jessica and Kevin, and they did until the very last moment. Congratulations, Jessica & Kevin! As always, none of this would be possible without the help of our amazing team of vendors.

Much like the butterfly, love changes as it grows to become more beautiful - Anonymous.
There's something about a first look that tugs at our heartstrings; for one, it's one of the only times throughout the day that the couple can truly be alone and reflect with one another. It also allows couples to spend more time together on their wedding day. Add a butterfly release to the mix, and Rebecca and Jon's first look tops the charts of one of our favorites to date. The couple celebrated their wedding day at one of our favorite venues, General Potter Farm. Guests were treated to a private creekside ceremony, bursting with laughter and warm September sunshine. It truly was a picturesque day. Rebecca and Jon chose to write their vows; it was impossible not to smile throughout the ceremony. It was plain to see that each guest could feel the love these two share. After the ceremony, guests were invited to the courtyard, where yard games and appetizers were waiting, setting the tone for a fun evening. Upstairs, the barn was bursting with pops of slate blue mixed with warm berry tones. Candlelight filled the reception space; the entire barn was glittering from the tables to the windowsills. The couple wanted to treat their guests to one of their favorite Penn State treats, Creamery Ice Cream. Classic Cone's vintage ice cream truck was the perfect setting for sunset pictures, allowing Rebecca and Jon's playfulness to shine through. After ice cream, guests were ready to pack the dance floor, singalongs, crowd surfing, and the Hora proved this group was ready to dance the night away. Congratulations, Rebecca and Jon! Vendor love!

There's something about fall weddings that makes us feel warm and cozy, even if it's chilly and drizzling outside. This wedding did just that. A little rain was not going to dampen this day!
Mark and Davita celebrated their marriage on Mark's family farm, surrounded by apple orchards and rolling hills of fall foliage. Although we couldn't execute the apple orchard ceremony, they were still able to share private moments tucked along the trees. The view was to die for. Guests were treated to the full farm experience, including a tractor ride and personalized apples picked fresh from the farm, guiding each guest to their seats. Guests walked into a tent exploding with fall color and texture. Trees lined the tent, casting the most beautiful leaf pattern along the tent's top. Tables were filled with vintage candles in mixed hues of amber and burgundy. The floral centerpieces absolutely stole the show, created by the groom's Aunt. This day was truly a family affair, and every element was created with love. Mark and Davita wanted to create a truly authentic farm-to-table experience for their guests regarding the menu. Dinner consisted of produce sourced on the farm and all other ingredients sourced within a few miles of the farm itself. Trust us when we say the food was to die for. The bride's father took the stage with his band following dinner to kick off the dancing, followed by DJ Alex Nepa, who kept the dancefloor packed the entire night. Congratulations, Mark and Davita!
