Ashley and Damien’s wedding at The Bradford was a memorable affair! Starring a luxe white and gold color palette and dramatic floral decor, it was a gorgeous day. Get inspired when you take a look at the details from their wedding at the elegant estate venue in New Hill. 

The pair started their day in separate suites located in the Main House. The minimalist, neutral-colored space was perfect for elegant portraits. Prior to the ceremony, the two enjoyed a first look and gift exchange outside on the covered walkway. Ashley looked stunning in a fit and flare wedding dress featuring a sheer v-neckline and a long train. She paired it with a rhinestone headpiece and a floor length train. Damien looked dapper in a bright white suit jacket and black dress pants paired with a gold bow tie. We captured their wedding portraits out in the lush garden, which turned out perfect thanks to an overcast day. Important details included a glamorous veil shot and close ups of Ashley’s wedding accessories. 

The main backdrop for the Bradford wedding ceremony was the modern ballroom. It featured bright white walls, hardwood floors, and recessed ceilings with sleek gold chandeliers. Large windows flooded the light with natural space. To dress up the space, a floral arch was constructed using white and blush roses, fluffy hydrangeas, pampas grass, and lots of greenery. Similar arrangements were placed atop tall glass stands. It was a beautiful celebration, complete with a unity tree ceremony.

Following the reception, the ballroom was quickly flipped for the reception. Tables were set up and dressed with crisp white linens, lined with elegant wood dining chairs. The tall floral arrangements placed in glass vases doubled as centerpieces. Ashley and Damien sat at a luxe sweetheart table, decorated with silver silk linens and an overhead floral arrangement. It starred the same combination of roses, hydrangeas and pampas grass. It was a breathtaking day that I won’t soon forget, and I wish the newlyweds a lifetime of happiness together.
