White Wedding at The Swanner House

While Mia and her bridesmaids toasted with champagne and Ryan and his groomsmen suited up, guests arrived at the Swanner House for the big day. Vinyl records were placed on the welcome table as the guest book where everyone could sign their name and leave a sweet note for Mia and Ryan, and fans were handed out to beat the summer heat. After dropping off their gifts, guests found their way to the ceremony where they took a seat. White and yellow floral arrangements mixed with greenery marked the front and back of the aisle. Once everyone was in attendance, the wedding party made their entrances ending with Mia. Together in front of all their closest friends and loving family, the bride and groom read personalized vows, exchanged rings, and sealed the ceremony with a kiss.

Filet and Wild Mushroom Wellingtons and Caprese Skewers were tray passed around the outdoor fountain for cocktail hour and guests lined up in the barn for the newlywed’s signature drinks, a Mojito and Classic Margarita. While everyone mixed and mingled, the wedding party took their turns posing for pictures with Mia and Ryan. After plenty of pictures were taken, everyone checked the seating chart to find their assigned table, then headed to reception.

Tables were draped with white linens and matching white tabletop items completed each place setting. Pops of green and yellow florals added splashes of color to the white theme. Mia and Ryan made their grand entrance, shared their first dance, and took a seat at their sweetheart table. Toasts were shared and Santorini Chicken, Vegetarian Rotolo Bolzano, Red Roasted Garlic Potatoes, Green beans, and Caesar Salad were served. The dinner menu was selected by the bride and groom with help from our event specialist, Brittany. After dinner, the couple cut into their two-tiered wedding cake and invited their guests to indulge in our Classic Dessert Station with a collection of Raspberry Chocolate Decadence Cakes, Fresh Fruit Tarts, Vanilla Bean Chocolate Eclairs, Mango and Passion Fruit Macarons, and French Apple Tarts. The evening ended with everyone out on the dance floor waving around glow sticks, sharing their well wishes with the newlyweds, and cheering as the bride and groom made a bubbly exit.
