Set in the Brandywine Valley, where the bride grew up, Katie and Preston’s wedding weekend was a thoughtful celebration rooted in family, place, and personal details. Friday began with an intimate rehearsal dinner at the family home, followed by a takeover of local favorite Buckley’s Tavern, reimagined for the evening as “Read’s Tavern.” The wedding day unfolded at Winterthur Estate, with a ceremony in the Sunken Garden, cocktails by the reflecting pool, and a tented reception at White Pines. Inspired by the natural beauty of the Brandywine Valley and the couple’s favorite hotels, the design blended organic florals and botanicals with elevated, bespoke details, including custom lampshades inspired by the bride’s gown. The evening ended on a distinctly personal note with late-night pizza from the couple’s favorite New York City spot.
