Peachy Orange Fall Wedding at The Estate on Second

Jenny popped champagne with her bridesmaids in the Bridal Suite at The Estate on Second while Daniel and his groomsmen suited up inside the Speakeasy downstairs. Once both parties were ready, and after a few photos, the bride and groom met outside for their first look. A tap on the shoulder turned Daniel around to see his beautiful bride standing before him in a off-the-shoulder wedding gown with lace details. The couple shared sweet compliments and exchanged personal vows, then joined their wedding party near the Chiarini Fountain for group photos before lining up for the ceremony.

Guests entered the Crystal Ballroom and found a seat under sparkling chandeliers. White candles lined the aisle leading up to white pillars topped with peach and orange floral arrangements. Once everyone was in attendance, the music cued up and the wedding party made their entrances ending with Jenny. In front of all their closest friends and family, Jenny and Daniel read their vows, exchanged rings, and sealed the ceremony with a kiss.

Crab Cakes and Curried Mango Chicken Tarts were tray passed in the Speakeasy while the bar served up Pineapple Margarita and Old Fashioned signature drinks. Everyone mixed and mingled while the newlyweds were off posing for photos as husband and wife, and upon their return, it was time for the reception.

Tables were topped with rust, peach, and orange floral details, menu cards, and candlesticks. Daniel and Jenny made their grand entrance, shared their first dance, then took a seat at their sweetheart table. Sliced Beef Brisket, Furikake Crusted Salmon, Jicama and Cucumber Salad, Coconut Lime Rice, Mashed Potatoes, Wild Cherry Salad, and Hawaiian Sweet Rolls were served while family and friends shared toasts. The dinner menu was selected by the bride and groom with help from their event specialist, Brittany. Afterwards, the couple cut into their carrot cake wedding cake and invited their guests to indulge in a little something sweet for dessert as well. The evening ended with an outfit change for Jenny and everyone out on the dance floor waving glow sticks around and showing off their best moves.
