Kat and Brandon got married on her family's farm, outside of State College, PA (on a non-football weekend). The ceremony was held on a bridge over a creek, that was built by her brother, Carl, for his wedding three years ago. That would be Carl of the "The Carl" fame.
This was truly a joint family effort, DYI type of wedding, which I think are the best kind!
The wedding reception, as I mentioned in the Cake and Cupcake post, was a bohemian carnival theme. See the red pennant bunting hanging down on the outside of the tent? And the top-hatted master of ceremonies peeking out the flap? Here comes our charming couple.
And her sister, Tessa, and her brother, Billy. Tessa made her own dress, and did the flowers. Talented family, or what?
Don't they look so happy? I love Kat's dress. Very traditional, yet unique. I like the unexpected black details.
Outside the tent, Kat and Brandon had set up lots of carnival games for guests to play during the cocktail hour. No detail was overlooked.
Kat and her father, Bill. Bill was so proud.
Kat is an artist and a gifted knitter. She knitted the cute little shrugs and gloves for herself and all of the bridesmaids.
Don't you just love her red shoes?
Kat's mom handed out paper mustaches to everyone. Doesn't Randy look dapper?
Our friend, Hannah, and her daughter, Lyla: pacifier + double-sided tape + paper mustache = insanely adorable little girl.
Here's the cake again:
And the cupcakes. The turquoise ones are The Carl flavor. The yellow ones are cannoli cupcakes, and the pink ones were a Kat-and-Brandon creation, dark chocolate with framboise lambic cream cheese icing. Yes, there was a little beer in the icing, and some amaretto in the cannoli cream, but not enough to have to worry about sloppy guests or kids eating them :)
The whole shebang:
Randy and his best friend, Lyla.
Is this kid cute or what? And smart. She's going to be a dentist someday.
Congratulations, Kat and Brandon! It was a beautiful wedding, and a ton of fun with great people and all of the playful DYI details.
Anyone else go to a really fun wedding lately? Get kissed on the nose or check out the molars of one of the other guests? Do tell.
