Bridgit and Ryan – 07.18.09

Dare to be different. That should have been the theme of Bridgit and Ryan’s wedding. From Bridgit’s feather purse to the gray tuxes to the couples’ shoes, everything was just the way that Bridgit and Ryan wanted it. Lindsey and Andy had the privilege of capturing the wedding on Saturday. Everything took place at Wind in the Willows in Grantville. The ceremony took place beside the lovely pond and the reception was inside the barn. What a cool place! And Bridgit and Ryan had one more surprise for their guests. Instead of a traditional wedding cake, the couple had an ice cream sundae bar complete with homemade hand-dipped ice cream. YUMMMMM!!

Below are some favorites. CLICK HERE for the slideshow.

Bridgit’s bouquet was made entirely of gardenias.

And a special one just for our friends with the Event Planning Network (EPN). Melissa and Tina were the coordinators for this wedding but they are also Bridgit’s friends and bosses. Yep. You guessed it. Bridgit is an EPN girl too. :)
