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.

Real Weddings | Maria's Wizard of Oz Wedding Garter

Maria shared so many beautiful pictures from her October 15^th, 2017 wedding to Brian that I had a hard time narrowing down which ones to include here! The couple had a fairy tale/fantasy themed wedding, including table names from various fantasy tales, and Maria’s Wizard of Oz wedding garter fit in perfectly! The Wizard of Oz has always been Maria’s favorite ~ she wore ruby kitten heels and had a Dorothy cake topper, and of course their sweetheart table was “Oz”! Photography by Kristin Chalmers.
