Rustic Wedding at the Rose Center

Jennifer in her stunning lace wedding gown and Danny in his navy blue suit with blush tie made their way to the Rose Center for their outdoor wedding ceremony and reception. Their bridesmaids and groomsmen followed wearing coordinating blush dresses and navy suits to match the bride and groom’s color theme. Guests were greeted in the courtyard of the Rose Center with a wooden welcome sign and sign in table along with a cute poster of Jennifer, Danny, and their two cats. Once signed in, they took a seat and awaited the wedding party.

The courtyard was decorated with wooden crates, blush and ivory roses, vintage lanterns and rose petals. Ghost chairs were lined up and filled by joyous guests awaiting the bride and groom. A hexagonal ceremony arch was set center stage that had bundles of hydrangeas and roses accenting it. Danny stepped out and made his walk down the aisle to kick off the ceremony followed by the bridesmaids and groomsmen. Jennifer was last to walk down the aisle arm in arm with her father smiling the entire way. Rings and vows were exchanged and with a roar of cheers form the crowd, Jennifer and Danny were pronounced husband and wife.

During cocktail hour guests enjoyed Roasted Creamy Tomato Soup Shooters topped with Mini Grilled Cheese Sandwiches and Filet & Wild Mushroom Wellingtons while sipping on beer, wine and cocktails from the bar. While everyone relaxed and enjoyed a few bites, the ceremony space was flipped for the dinner reception. Tables were draped in the lightest grey linens and topped with lanterns filled with fairy lights surrounded by flowers and greenery. Navy linen napkins, blush glass goblets, and gold rimmed plates made up each place setting. Once everything was good to go, guests took their seats and enjoyed a delicious dinner of Mixed Green Salad, Parmesan Crusted Creamed Corn, BBQ Pulled Pork, Garlic Herb Crusted Tri-Tip, Cornbread Muffins and a Mashed Potato Bar that our Event Specialist, Patti, selected together with the bride and groom. After dinner, the newlyweds cut into their two-tiered lemon cake with lemon creme filling and classic buttercream icing and a specialty donut cart was available to guests with a sweet tooth. After much fun and dancing, an In n Out truck showed up for late night snacks. With full bellies and even fuller hearts, Jennifer and Danny’s special day came to an end and the newlyweds rode off together into the night.
