Mary Jordan and Wilkes’ wedding was a vision of timeless elegance, like stepping into a romantic garden party brought to life. With 275 guests and love woven into every detail, the celebration was as joyful as the couple themselves.

Mary Jordan and Wilkes were set up by mutual friends and approached their blind date with plenty of skepticism. But lucky for both of them, that first meeting quickly proved their friends right. A sweet and easy connection grew into something undeniable, culminating in a surprise proposal at High Hampton. After Mary Jordan said yes, she turned to find both of their families waiting to celebrate, making the moment as heartfelt as it was unforgettable.

Mary Jordan stunned in a custom spaghetti strap lace gown by Britt Wood Designs.

After the ceremony, guests moved to the lawn for cocktail hour, featuring a martini bar cart. For dinner, guests dined on risotto, halibut filet, and beef tenderloin.

Their custom-tented reception was a statement piece — with lush draping and dramatic florals welcoming guests to dinner. The design was filled with lush white, green, and neutral florals that felt both natural and elevated, perfectly complementing the mountainous setting.

The couple’s all-white wedding cake featured rich buttercream and lush florals to top it.

The couple shared meaningful musical moments — from their first dance to “Sweet Symphony” to a private last dance serenaded by a friend performing an original song.
