For Mary Katherine, the vision was clear from the start: a cozy, vintage-inspired dinner party surrounded by the people she and Chandler love most. Set against a backdrop of soft fall colors and timeless 60s and 70s love songs, the day was filled with warmth, meaning, and family tradition.

With just 50 guests, the celebration felt deeply personal—from the homemade Southern breakfast prepared by her mom and grandmother that morning to the sparkler-lined exit in a 1970 Ford Bronco, driven by a family friend. Mary Katherine wore a stunning gown, and every joyful moment was captured with heart.

The reception echoed the couple’s love of nostalgia—complete with heirloom cake knives, framed family photos, and the feeling of an old-world dinner party lit by candlelight. “It truly felt like a sleepover with my favorite people,” Mary Katherine shared.
