Martine's ONCE UPON A TIME, June was the month to get married. Our mothers and grandmothers dreamed of becoming June brides. Yes, June is a lovely month, but part of its popularity was more than likely industry-driven. Think about it. During the 50s and early 60s, air conditioning was still a luxury, which meant bakers worried how their cakes would “weather” the heat and humidity. It was also an era in which florists were relegated to using flowers that were in season. So, June became the month that offered the best scenario for a dream wedding. One bride dared to break the rule in that era: Jacqueline Bouvier married Senator John F. Kennedy on a gorgeous day in mid-September, 1953. The event didn’t look like a fall wedding, but instead harkened to spring. Jackie’s ivory taffeta ball gown was enhanced by a cathedral-length veil that was held in place by a tiara made of orange blossoms. The bouquet she carried was composed of pink gardenias and white orchids. Her bridesmaids wore pink.
Jackie, of course, was always a style setter, but who knew that 60 years later, her out-of-season spring wedding would be a trend that today’s brides are embracing. We’re seeing winter-themed weddings in the heat of summer, and spring-themed weddings in the dead of winter. Fall, however, has become everyone’s favorite season to get married in South Central Pennsylvania. Blue skies, incredible colors in nature and being with the ones we love make for memorable weddings. With that said, let’s talk about color. You don’t have to confine your color scheme to the oranges and yellows that define fall. It’s your wedding. You can use any color you want. For example, would you believe pink has become a fall color? No, not the dainty or hot hues we associate with spring and summer, but a shade that pairs well with earthy tones such as marsala, olive green and ochre. And, you’re probably thinking that your décor will have to revolve around pumpkins, gourds, hay bales and mums. Rest assured, you can forget about all that. April in October is very doable. However, if you love pumpkins and gourds, go for it. Thanks to the heirloom varieties that are being grown, you now have color options. And floral designers are working their magic to transform lowly pumpkins into something befitting Cinderella with paint, diamond dust and ribbon. And, speaking of florists, they now have access to the world. If you want tulips in the fall or roses in winter, they can make it happen.
What’s in vogue as you contemplate a fall wedding? Gowns provided by Lilla’s Bridal Boutique exemplify today’s trends: lace, back treatments and ivory/champagne tones. Cathedral-length veils are providing the wow factor. See you in your dreams …

LAURA and AARON Wrightsville, PA March 20, 2015
HOMETOWNS:
Laura is from Columbia, Pa; Aaron is from Tampa, FL. Both are higher education administrators in the Washington DC area. Laura met Aaron while visisting a mutual friend at graduate school in North Carolina. They had a long distance relationship for two years while Laura worked at the University of Delaware and Aaron worked at George Mason University. Their first date was at a sushi restaurant in Durham, NC. Aaron proposed 3 years after their first date. He sent Laura on a scavenger hunt using clues based on details of their relationship until Laura found the engagement ring! Pink and green. Baby's breath and roses. Laura has two memorable moments that

truly stood out for her. The first was when her brother read during their ceremony. He was holding his two year old daughter, Ciara, and as he read “Love is Patient, Love is Kind”, she yelled out “Blah, Blah, Blah!”. It was a perfect moment for a good laugh from everyone who attended. The other special memory was having Ashley Staples, the friend who introduced them and knew them both so well, officiate the ceremony. Of course, it would also be hard to forget that a freak snowstorm (on the first day of spring!) forced the couple to have to make a lot of last minute changes. However, even though they did not plan a winter wedding, they ended up with the picture perfect wedding of their dreams they never knew they They postponed wanted! their honeymoon until their first wedding anniversary and spent it in Florida.

KAITLYN and DIRON Mount Joy, PA July 12, 2015
Hometowns:
Kaitlyn is from Elizabethtown, PA; Diron in from Annville, PA. Kaitlyn is an elementary school teacher and Diron is in the Army. The couple met at their church. Diron knew how much Kaitlyn loved diners and thought that a diner would be the perfect place to get to know each other better. They talked for hours, but it felt as if time stood still. On Christmas, Diron sent Kaitlyn on a scavenger hunt around her home to find three envelopes. Each envelope contained a clue about what they would do and where they would go on a date. The way he worded the clues made her think that he was going to propose on the third date. The first date, was to Christmas Candylane and the second was to City Island in Harrisburg where they went on a romantic horse and carriage ride. As they got out of the carriage, Diron left his gloves on the seat and asked Kaitlyn to retrieve them. When she turned around, he was on one knee! She stood in pure shock for a minute before saying "Yes!". It was a magical day. Tiffany blue and light gray. Orchids, roses, wild roses, lilies, peonies, and Dusty Miller. Mean to Me by Brett Eldridge. Kaitlyn's favorite memory was the couple's "First Look". The look on Diron's face when he turned around and saw her in her wedding gown for the first time was priceless and one she will never forget. Another special moment was when a butterfly landed on Kaitlyn's veil during the ceremony and then fluttered at her face startling her a little and making everyone laugh. Punta Cana, Dominican Republic.

Challen is from Bethesda, MD; David is from Linwood, NJ. Challen is a sales representative and David is a golf professional. The couple likes to say that they met the old fashioned way - at a bar! They have been inseparable ever since. David took Challen to eat Pho at his favorite Vietnamese restaurant. David proposed by the fountain outside of The Capital Grille in Chevy Chase, Maryland. The restaurant was very meaningful to them because they had celebrated special occasions there before including birthdays, anniversaries and career moves. David had arranged for their best friends to be there to capture proposal pictures and then they all headed to the bar where Challen and David first met to celebrate. Deep
