Andrew and Kat’s classic Bear Brook Valley wedding day was truly something special to be a part of! These two created an incredible day to celebrate their love! Andrew and Kat met on St. Patrick’s Day in 2013 at a local pub, where they danced and kept finding their way back to each other as the day wore on. Before they left, Andrew made sure to put his number in Kat’s phone (and friend her on Facebook!). After a few weeks, the two met back up and had their first official date! Kat told me that it’s always been how comfortable they are together – and how easy things are – that has truly made their relationship special.

The two chose to have their fall wedding at Bear Brook Valley because they loved the venue. Throughout the day, they had carefully chosen details that they incorporated into their day to celebrate their incredible families, including Kat’s grandfather’s stole and a bagpiper for her grandmother. Seeing all of those special details was incredible – you can tell how much they love each other and their families! Kat and Andrew’s day was classic and elegant, with a few beautiful rustic touches.

The entire day was stunning but my favorite part was definitely some of the incredible handmade items by my good friend Christina of Blue Mae Events! She absolutely rocked this wedding – I can’t believe she HAND MADE the floral wall used for the name and table cards for guests! My other favorite part of this wedding day was the snowfall we got. Although we were all surprised by it, it was insanely romantic! It was absolutely beautiful and the little Episcopal church they were married in was so incredible as the sunset with a fresh coat of the first snow fall of the season!
