Katherine and Jonathan had a romantic, luxury military red rose wedding at Bryn Athyn Cathedral and Cairnwood Estate on June 4,2021. The couple met in Brooklyn, NY in 2014 and have been inseparable ever since. After exchanging vows at Bryn Athyn Cathedral, the couple exited through a traditional Marine Corps sword arch where Katherine’s custom gown and Jonathan’s dress blues became a main focal point. Upon being greeted at the reception with custom signature cocktails named after their pets, Katherine and Jonathan were able to view their reception tent for the first time. This red rose wedding was filled with over 3,000 red roses, carefully decorated and placed to represent romance, elegance, luxury and glam, with unique centerpieces, candles, shimmering linens, and gold decor accents under a white tent to enhance Katherine’s vision to have a classic wedding. Keeping Katherine’s vision in mind, the inside staircases and mantels were lined with red rose garlands, candles, and custom signage in gold. The wedding color palette, which included red, ivory, gold and black, were all carefully designed to accent the theme of “timeless romance” by Kyle Michelle Weddings and Fabufloras and every aspect had a unique detail with each area of Cairnwood displaying a personalized touch to represent the couple’s life together. Everything from the attire, custom details, and military traditions made this wedding beautiful, timeless and classic, but with a unique twist.
