Amy and Colin’s wedding brought a fresh kind of joy to Jefferson Street Mansion. The couple’s journey began at a college party back in 2012, reconnecting years later in 2020 to build a life filled with books, basketball, and their beloved dog Astro. Their wedding day reflected that story—timeless, playful, and full of heart.
Amy looked radiant in soft curls and natural makeup, thanks to the talented artists at Bella Bridal Hair & Makeup. Her bridal party surrounded her with light laughter and shared excitement, creating the relaxed atmosphere they both envisioned. Meanwhile, Colin and his groomsmen shared easy camaraderie outside beneath the trees.
The ceremony unfolded beneath the mansion’s classic columns, with lush arrangements by A Love’s in Bloom framing every tender moment. After their heartfelt vows, guests moved to the tented reception space where blue accents and elegant tablescapes echoed the couple’s love for classic beauty.
