Kelly and Derrick’s wedding was a beautiful display of intentional, designed elegance, perfectly captured within the lush, garden-inspired atmosphere of Terrain at Styer’s. Every detail of the day was deeply personal, from the hand-textured "painting" guest book to the emotional monarch butterfly motifs woven throughout the décor—a tribute to a powerful "butterfly effect" moment in the couple's own journey.

The intimate, outdoor ceremony took place in the evening, featuring a unique unity plant ceremony and a heartfelt unplugged service led by the bride's brother. One of the most touching moments of the day was a dedicated seat in the front row for the bride's late father, adorned with a custom "suit jacket" frame and a blue ribbon—her "something blue."

As the sun set, guests transitioned from a vibrant cocktail hour featuring French 75 signature drinks to a beautifully curated reception. The evening was filled with genuine energy, culminating in a surprise late-night Wawa "to-go" station—a playful, local touch that perfectly reflected Kelly and Derrick's fun-loving nature. This celebration was a true testament to the beauty of thoughtful planning and the magic that happens when a couple's authentic story takes center stage.
