KATIE CONTI & BRENDAN QUINNAUGUST 17, 2013
FROM KATIE: When Brendan and I first got engaged, we knew we
wanted to have our wedding outdoors. After searching for a vendor,
we realized nothing would be better than having our wedding at my
mom’s house. The spectacular views made the choice an easy one.
We wanted the vibe for our wedding to match the stunning surround-
ings, so we went with a “country soiree” theme that was simple yet
elegant. All of the details we added were homemade DIY projects, like
the heart garland cut out of 1950s Reader’s Digest issues and our Mad
Lib-inspired RSVP cards, which were a big hit with our guests! One
of my favourite details was all the gorgeous flowers: not only did my
mom grow and arrange the flowers in the planters that lined the cer-
emony aisle, but the flowers in my bouquet came straight out of her
garden, which was very special. The arrangements were spectacular
and really added to the casual country feel we were after. The whole
day was so special! We were so happy to see people enjoying them-
selves and appreciating the hard work we put into the little details.
