Falling in Love at The Rose Center

The leaves on the trees were a bright yellow when Christina met Aldrich outside of The Rose Center for their first look. She wore a sweet lace wedding dress with long, flowing veil. When Aldrich turned around, looks of excitement filled both of their faces. The two lovebirds were ready to tie the knot! Group shots were next. Each groomsman wore a grey suit and light pink tie while the bridesmaids wore different shades of pink and held bouquets of eucalyptus and roses. Lots of laughs were shared before heading to the courtyard where guests were seated and ready for the ceremony.

Gold Chiavari chairs marked each side of the aisle. An arbor draped in ivory fabric and decorated with the same eucalyptus and roses as the bride and bridesmaid’s bouquets stood tall on the stage ready for Christina and Aldrich. Christina met her future husband at the head of the aisle where they exchanged loving vows before heading into cocktail hour. During cocktail hour, a European & Domestic Cheese Wedge Tray was on display for guests to snack on along with Filet & Wild Mushroom Wellingtons and Fig, Goat Cheese & Mascarpone Tarts before heading inside for toasts and dinner. Once seated inside, the newlyweds shared their first dance and friends and family toasted to Christina and Aldrich before the All-American Dinner Buffet opened. Caesar Salad, Cornbread Muffins & Honey Butter, Filet & Wild Mushroom Wellingtons, and Fig, Goat Cheese & Mascarpone Tarts filled guest’s plates. A sweet ending of Handmade Donuts and coffee concluded the wedding.
