Taryn & Scott

Wedding Date: June 12th 2015

The Van Dusen Mansion was bustling from the moment I arrived.  Flowers, linens, décor, table settings, programs, were streaming on pull-carts through the wrought-iron gates.  Upstairs the ladies were humming away to tunes as guys took their luck to the pool table in between bites of sandwich.  Taryn’s dad Mike had an extra bounce in his step today as he eagerly awaited his turn to tell his daughter how beautiful she looked.  Scott won out big time this day.  A hunting and fishing enthusiast, this catch just might be his best.  Flowers were done with perfection in every area of the mansion filling the air with peony perfume.  Katy from Mother of the Bride planning had done a fab job with a vision that transformed the mansion into a masterpiece.  Just before the ceremony, Taryn boarded the horse and buggy with her dad for a last conversation around the city before pulling up to the top of her wedding aisle.  As night fell, the mansion staff and I had a special surprise waiting for the couple as we led them to one of the best overlooks of the city.  Goosebumps.
