These high school sweethearts marked their 13th anniversary with an intimate wedding in their hometown on a snowy January afternoon. Every detail from the day was gorgeous in its simplicity, from the romantic pink and peach-hued flower arrangements to the bridal party’s pared-back emerald green and black attire. The historic Gibson Centre’s lovingly restored brick walls and pine plank floors exuded comfort and warmth. Meanwhile, natural light poured into the space through windows that provided glimpses of the gently falling snow.

The couple wanted to create a romantic atmosphere for their reception guests with simple décor inside the candlelit space. White table linens and vintage gold candlesticks cultivated an air of elegance, while literary-themed details added charm. Handcrafted bookmarks with calligraphy by the bride had a dual role as place cards and guest favours—the perfect keepsakes for a cozy winter wedding day. The seating charts and table numbers also featured titles of the couple’s favourite books for a sweet, personalized touch.
