THEIR STORYBRIDE Kaitlin Connors, 27, media buyer at ITN Networks GROOM Grant McKiernan, 27, investment associate at George Comfort & Sons HOW THEY MET At Boston College WEDDING STYLE Kaitlin and Grant used soft shades of white, cream and blush along with natural greenery to create a timeless, romantic atmosphere for their black-tie nuptials. —Meghan Overdeep
The couple was married in a traditional Catholic ceremony in the same church Kaitlin grew up attending with her family. “I’m very partial to where I grew up and wanted to marry Grant in my hometown,” Kaitlin says.
The 14 bridesmaids carried seasonal bunches of creamy white dahlias, garden roses, astilbe, white ranunculus, clematis and dusty miller.
Two gold urns bursting with
ivory and blush blooms and curly
willow flanked the altar.
The classic invitations were letterpressed in black and gold ink on thick beveled stock. The couple’s stationer created a custom monogram, which they carried throughout the rest of the day’s décor. “The pieces were truly a work of art,” Kaitlin says.

“It was more beautiful than I ever
imagined,” Kaitlin says of their soaring
naked wedding cake.
The grand 32-foot head table was draped with a lush floral garland of all-white hydrangeas, garden roses and orchids that spilled over each edge. “If I could have preserved it forever, I think I would
have,” Kaitlin says. “It just made such a statement in the tent—it was absolutely breathtaking.”
