"Wendy, a project manager from New Jersey, and Michael, a vice president of a communications consulting firm from Philadelphia, met on Hinge, where for the first (and last) time in her life, Wendy messaged him first. Sparks immediately flew over drinks at Echo Park in Shaw for their first date one Tuesday night. Three years later, Michael proposed one snowy morning while the pair were vacationing in Park City."
"They wanted their early June wedding to feel like a "spectacular kickoff" to summer, featuring a color palette inspired by a vibrant summer sunset, and other details that would make the day feel timeless and elegant, yet whimsical and fun. Wendy's favorite element of the day was the "Our Love is Magnetic" escort display, which nodded to her family's long-standing magnet-collecting tradition. Michael's favorite part was the massive floral canopy installation that hung over the dance floor, transforming the ballroom with a summer garden feel."
Wendy and Michael met on Hinge when Wendy messaged him. Sparks flew over drinks at Echo Park, and Michael proposed three years later in snowy Park City. The early June wedding used a vibrant summer-sunset palette to create a timeless, elegant, yet whimsical kickoff to summer. Key elements included an 'Our Love is Magnetic' escort display honoring a family magnet-collecting tradition and a massive floral canopy over the dance floor that transformed the ballroom into a summer garden. Family heirlooms included a grandfather's tallit and a six-generation challah- and cake-cutting knife. The menu featured sushi, a raw bar, mini bagels with nova, a wine tasting, Philly cheesesteaks, truffle fries, and a candy bar.
