The wedding ceremony and reception, held on July 15, 2023, were a beautiful and elegant affair that left a lasting impression on everyone in attendance. The stunning O'Shaughnessy Hall on the Saint Mary-of-the-Woods campus was the perfect setting for the event. Simple to Elegant, the talented wedding planners worked tirelessly to transform the venue into a breathtaking masterpiece that impressed everyone. Throughout the planning process, Jeanette Winchester provided us with outstanding support, while Jeff's expertise with draping and on-the-day assistance was exceptional. The ceremony decor, including crisp white linens, crystal vases of varying heights with cascading flowers, and a floral aisle runner, added to the charm and beauty of the ceremony.
