Sarah and Craig’s wedding day was magical, blending classic elegance with personal touches that made it unique. Their day began with a heartfelt ceremony at St. Bridget of Ireland Church. The couple exchanged vows, surrounded by their closest family and friends. Sarah looked stunning in her sleeveless white wedding dress, with a delicate lace top that added a romantic touch. Craig complemented her perfectly in a timeless black suit, radiating charm and sophistication.
After the ceremony, the newlyweds made a grand exit in a Rolls Royce, whisking them away to their reception at the stunning Salamander. The ride to the reception was the perfect moment for them to bask in the joy of becoming husband and wife.
The cocktail hour, held in Salamander’s beautiful garden, was a highlight for their guests. As they mingled, they enjoyed signature cocktails and an incredible sushi spread. The garden ambiance was enhanced by live music from a talented trio, setting the perfect tone for the evening. As a favor for their guests, Sarah and Craig had a live artist there to create fashion portraits of them. The fun fact cocktail napkins sparked smiles and Salamander’s beloved horse, Cupcake, made a special appearance.
Before joining their guests at the cocktail hour, Sarah and Craig took a moment to enjoy some quiet time. During this time, they captured heartwarming portraits with their adorable dog, Maverick. As the evening unfolded, the reception was set with classic white linens, lush green and white floral arrangements, and the soft glow of candlelight, creating a timeless and elegant atmosphere. Sarah switched up her look by removing the lace top of her dress, embracing a more relaxed, chic style for the reception. Surrounded by their loved ones, Sarah and Craig danced the night away to live music, celebrating their love in the most beautiful setting.
