St. John Neumann Catholic Church & Commodore Perry Estate

 

08/10/2024

 

 

From the beauty of St. John Neumann Catholic Church to the charm of the historic Commodore Perry Estate, Erika and Jacob’s wedding was a blend of tradition and elegance. Every moment of their day was planned in thoughtful detail and so much love.

 

The couple exchanged vows in a traditional Catholic ceremony surrounded by family and friends beneath the breathtaking architecture of the church. Following the ceremony, guests made their way to the Commodore Perry Estate for the reception, where everything looked like something out of a dream. The color palette being crisp white, black, and warm gold struck the perfect balance between sophistication and romance!

 

Premiere Events and Ilios set the mood inside the tent with twinkle lights and crystal chandeliers. Guests walked in to find the space glowing even more with tall candelabras and floral arrangements. One of the most admired spots of the evening was the estate’s iconic fountain, transformed by Remi + Gold with cascading white flowers and candles reflecting in the water. It was a vision brought to life!

 

The classic black and white color palette flowed into the chapel, where guests danced the night away on a black-and-white checkered dance floor. They also sipped on espresso martinis poured from a custom ice luge that was etched with the couple’s monogram. It carried the evening’s elegant aesthetic effortlessly! Capturing it all was Katherine Larson Photography, preserving these moments to cherish for years.

 

As the night came to a close, Erika and Jacob made their grand exit down the estate staircase through sparkling fountains arranged by Big Dog Pyro. It was the perfect ending to a day that felt entirely like them. More than just a celebration, their wedding was an experience their guests will never forget.

Congratulations Erika & Jacob!

 

XOXO,

Courtney
