Heather and Ed planned an intimate wedding in their home in TWO WEEKS. TWO WEEKS!
Their ceremony was personal and sweet, infused with a few traditions to represent their cultures and backgrounds. To honor their Italian heritage, they hung a bow on their front door, to show they were “tying the knot.” It also is good luck in Italian culture to get married on a Sunday, and we broke a glass at the end (usually, it’s a plate or a vase, but the glass was easier and safer to do!). To honor their Irish background, they had a handfasting ceremony, and had a friend read the traditional Irish Blessing at the end of the ceremony.
I loved that they included these Irish wedding traditions and Italian wedding traditions as a way to really personalize their ceremony.
We laughed a lot! Heather and Ed were full of laughter and humor and giggles and we kept that in the ceremony. You can see how we’re laughing in almost every single picture!
I am so glad I got to be part of their special day. Congrats again, Heather & Ed!!
A few happy tears!
Breaking the glass together!
Heather and Ed are “high five people” so of course they high fived after the kiss!
