Danny and Christina

Standing outside the Kellogg House, one could hear the shouting and laughter floating out of the third story windows. Christina and her 11 bridesmaids raised champagne glasses in honor of her wedding day. Most of the bridemaids have been her friend since junior high, so while Coldplay tunes seeped from the lime green iPod, they reminiscensed about old nicknames and fond memories they made.

Christina and Danny met in junior high, but it wasn’t until high school when they fell in love. They were assigned to be lab partners in a science class and their chemistry was unmistakeable. Seven years later, they were preparing for their wedding day.

White twinkling lights dressed the trees and spherical Chinese lanterns dangled across the night sky. White hydrangeas and callolilies adorned the tables, but the highlight of the reception was the dessert bar. In addition to a traditional wedding cake, an entire gazebo was filled with cupcakes, cookies, and other sweet confections.

As guests mingled in the oversized gazebo, I couldn’t help but notice how such a decedent table aptly reflected Danny and Christina’s relationship: sweet, satisfying, and fulfilling.

Here are a few from Friday…
