The couple was celebrated at a reception with dinner and dancing at Green Valley Country Club. Flowers coordinating with the bridal bouquet adorned the tables. Candles and votives decorated the ceremony space and spilled out onto the outside dance floor.

The bride’s cake was a small vanilla cutting cake with buttercream icing adorned with blush and ivory roses. The groom’s cake featured chocolate ganache and “buck eyes” to honor the parents’ Alma Mater. Guests were served cupcakes in a variety of flavors.
