A shared love of golf led these two cuties to Green Spring Valley Hunt Club when planning their wedding day alongside A. Dominick Events. With its crisp color palette, fun geometric linens by La Tavola Fine Linen Rental, classic invitation suite by Cheree Berry Paper, and eye-catching hanging lantern installation, this wedding captured by Abby Jiu Photography is an unforgettable blend between preppy and whimsical – a hole in one in our book!
Wendy and Drew meet in DC when they were out to dinner with mutual friends at one of the bride’s favorite restaurants, Pearl Dive Oyster Bar. They instantly clicked! Almost two quick, fun-filled years after their first introduction, on a beautiful Saturday morning in October, Drew lead Wendy into a garden while they were out on a walk in Princeton. She thought they were on their way to get brunch and was not expecting this detour. A few minutes after entering the garden, Drew got down on one knee and proposed. The bride was completely surprised, and they celebrated their engagement with champagne and dessert at their favorite local restaurant.
The couple decided to have their reception at Green Spring Valley Hunt Club, which holds a special place in both of their hearts. They both love the game of golf and spent their first summer together plying many rounds (Drew still lets Wendy have unlimited mulligans).
If you have ever seen their family dance, it would be obvious they would want the dance floor and band to be the focal point of their wedding. They oriented the layout of the tent to include a large dance area and accented it with a canopy of hanging greenery and lanterns.
Their cake topper belonged to the bride’s great grandmother who had it on her own wedding cake almost 100 years ago.
