8 Aug, 2015The story of our wedding
A venue so stunning it brings a tear to your eye, the perfect dress designed down to the very last detail by the bride, weather so beautiful you’d swear you were in the Caribbean, a love so deep that the guests could actually feel it, and every item checked off the couple’s wish list – that was my wedding in a nutshell! I am one of those girls who dreamed about her wedding day and started planning it long before she got engaged. As a wedding enthusiast and someone who’s planning to start a career in the wedding industry, I had extremely high expectations. I was positive that my dream wedding and reality would not lineup, but I couldn’t have been more wrong! My husband and I dated for almost 8 years when we finally tied the knot, so I wanted to make our celebration of love a true reflection of us and the love between us. After a lengthy search, we found a venue that was better than we had hoped for and somehow in our budget. Silver Swan Bayside, a quiet oasis tucked away in the Eastern Shore with unobstructed views of the Bay was the venue for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception, and we couldn’t have happier. They were also took care of catering and white glove service, and the food was delicious and the service was amazing! My beloved father died a couple years before our wedding; which ripped a hole in my heart while planning. However, we found great ways to include him on our special day – left his seat open with a picture of him and I and a white rose, an “we know you’d be here today if heaven wasn’t so far away,” table that waitstaff made sure was stocked with a fresh Glen Levitt next to his picture, and my favorite touch – a picture charm of him and I that I wore on my heels so he could “walk me down the aisle.” Our wedding party was filled with our closest friends, and the guest list was filled with all our favorite people. The day of the wedding was beautiful – the weather was perfect, getting ready with my girls was so much fun, and reminiscing about the last 8 years was full of love and laughter. My dress was exactly what I wanted as I had designed it myself, and my heart was so full as my older brother and life-long best friend walked me down the aisle. It was without a doubt the happiest day of my life and so perfectly imperfect!
