Real Weddings | Jennifer's Penn State Nittany Lions Wedding Garter

Bride Jennifer shared the loveliest pictures from her 2014 wedding to groom Frank, and I'm so excited to feature them on the blog today! The couple met in high school and were friends for 25 years before falling in love and having the wedding of their dreams at Stevenson Ridge in Spotsylvania, Virginia. The couple went to Penn State together, so a Penn State garter was the perfect "something blue"! 

In Jennifer's own words, "I had not wanted to have a big wedding, but Frank didn't have a wedding the first time he got married, and it was important to him that we have a big celebration with all of our friends. What a party! Once we hit the dance floor, Frank and I never left until it was time to leave the reception. I'm so glad I changed my attitude and went with the big wedding. I felt so beautiful with my handsome husband by my side. It was truly the happiest day of my life! Thanks so much for being a part of our day. Frank loved the garter! It was so pretty and the craftsmanship was amazing." Photography by Amanda Dorian Photography.

Real Weddings | Holly's Miami Dolphins Wedding Garter Set

I'm sharing a few pictures from bride Holly's July 9th, 2016 wedding to husband Chad today! The pair wed at the PGA National Resort & Spa in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. Chad doesn't watch football, but Holly and her dad are huge Dolphins fans, so Holly had to have something Miami Dolphins themed for her big day! In her own words, "It was a fun touch to a very formal wedding." Photography by Carlos Osorio of Miami Photo.

Real Weddings | Brooke's New York Giants vs Baltimore Ravens House Divided Wedding Garter

I've been dying to share pictures from Brooke and Adam's 2012 wedding in Baltimore, Maryland, where the pair's love of opposing teams played a big role! Brooke was born and raised in Long Island, New York, and is a die-hard New York sports fan, while Adam roots for Baltimore teams. In Brooke's own words: "The New York Giants vs Baltimore Ravens house divided garter was perfect because football season was in full swing when we got married on October 6, 2012, and proved to be even better because the Giants had won the Super Bowl in 2011 and the Ravens won in 2012!" It was a huge hit with both sides of their family. Baseball was also covered at their reception as they had an ice cream bar as one of their dessert options that was served in the stadium-style Yankees and Orioles ice cream helmets.
