Real Weddings: Katie + Aaron

Aaron proposed to Katie 3 years after he sat next to her on the metro in Washington, D.C. They decided that since he chose a vineyard to propose in that they’d continue the theme to their wedding and chose Hillsborough Vineyards for their big day. Since they were getting married in April, a time where there wouldn’t be much in bloom at the venue, Katie brought in the amazing Holly Heider-Chapple to create bold blue and pink arrangements to liven and warm up the day. The beautiful details of Katie and Aaron’s sweet and elegant wedding were captured by Kristen Gardner and with all of the colorful blooms, it’s easy to see why this is one of Holly’s most favorite weddings of the year!
