How the night ran
How did Adrianna and Mark’s wedding night run?
Booked in May for a Saturday in October. One DJ and MC for all five hours. A send-off under paper hearts.
What they wanted
Adrianna and Mark booked Elevate for their wedding at The Delaware in Independence. Guests sat down to dinner with the building’s glass garage doors rolled up onto the patio.
How the night ran
After the cake cutting, Adrianna and Mark danced while guests watched from their tables. Later, Adrianna handed her bouquet to a guest as others clapped, and guests lined up on the floor for line dances.
How it turned out
The gallery ends outside, where guests lined the walk and threw paper hearts as Adrianna and Mark walked out. Their photographs, by Angie Scott Photography, cover the night from the dressed tables to that walk out. A selection is below.
