Wedding Ceremony Details
Heading into their ceremony details, Christina and Ben welcomed their guests with a custom sign and some baby’s-breath. Like we mentioned earlier, Ben hand-picked fresh wildflowers from his and Christina’s garden, they wrapped them in a sheet of music to have as a “petal toss” for their ceremony recession. Guests were greeted with these on their seats when they sat down.
The arch was draped in greenery with a full arrangement of white and blush flowers on the top. Such a pretty altar space for these two to tie the knot!
Greenery cascaded across the beams of the greenhouse at Long Hollow Gardens, truly so romantic.

Christina walked to her eagerly awaiting groom with her father. The emotions, the excitement, and the love was all very clear to see between these two. Intimate personal vows were read to one another and left eyes far from clear!
The kiss that seals the deal! These two are married!
The exit with their beautiful fresh flowers! Goals!
Wedding Reception Details
Coming from the future, it was definitely worth the wait! Guests were greeted by another cute custom sign and a seating chart that was made from flower pots, each guest was a “sprout” in the pot that coordinated with their table number, how adorable!
The table numbers were pictures of both Christina and Ben at the ages that the table number represented, such a cute way for guests to see some old family photos! The centerpieces were created with plants from the greenhouse itself. With some bud vases with a couple of blooms and candles, these were so simple and oh so cute!
The head table was lined with handmade place cards that were repurposed leafs! Such an adorable garden vibe!
The cake was a two-tier cutting cake with the prettiest gold detailing and bright blooms cascading down both tiers.
Wedding Reception Highlights
The wedding party followed by the newlyweds entered into the reception to “Higher Love” by Kygo. Christina and Ben went right into their first dance to “God Gave Me You” performed by a friend, Jonathan Hutcherson. An awesome personal touch.
Christina and her father shared their dance to “You’ll Always be my Baby” by Alan Jackson. Ben and his mother shared their dance to “My Wish” by Rascal Flatts.
Toasts followed the dances, such heartfelt words were given to these newlyweds.
It’s time for Christina and Ben to cut into the pretty cake! They were pros.
To kick off the dance floor, guests did The Horah to get everyone up and ready to dance the night away! It was so much fun for these two to celebrate Ben’s traditions.
After an awesome dance party, Christina and Ben left with a bang. With fresh rose petals as their exit, it was the end to a fairytale.
