Keturah & Kiel

Today was a gorgeous day, the perfect weather for a very poignant wedding of a beloved local elementary teacher!  Lots of planning was evidenced by an abundance of personal touches everywhere you looked!  One of the best things about the day was the bride’s (and groom's) radiant smiles!  There is nothing quite as wonderful than to see a bride and groom so happy…..it is absolutely contagious and as a venue makes our day!!  Thank you Keturah and Kiel for choosing Brandywine Manor House. Your Manor Barn reception was beautiful and it was an honor to host your wedding day!  Have a wonderful honeymoon!

A Trip Down Memory Lane: Patti's Wedding

Hello, brides and brides-to-be!

Recently, we posted about a past bride, Karen, coming back to us to host her baby shower. It was in the Manor Barn and was truly an honor for us! You can read about it here. That got us thinking... how are our other past brides doing? Have you settled into married life? Are you starting families? We would love to hear from you! As well as see some of your favorite moments from your special day. :)

Patti must have been reading our minds. :) Yesterday, she sent us some beautiful pictures of her wedding day. She wore a unique and gorgeous blush pink dress with polka dots throughout, and used green uplighting within the Crown Ballroom. We were thrilled to receive these and are just as thrilled to share them with you!

All below photos were captured by Clair Pruett Photography.





Patti, thank you so much for allowing us to relive your wedding day through these pictures. We are so thankful you chose Brandywine Manor House as the venue in which to say your vows! To all you BMH brides, please feel free to send us an update or just some wedding photos for us to see and share. We only ask that you include the name of your photographer so that we may give them credit. It's always wonderful to hear from all of you!

Hope all is well, and to our brides-to-be, as always, happy wedding planning! Don't forget to head over to our Pinterest page to see Patti's and other BMH brides' photos and ideas!

A Brandywine Bride... Now a Brandywine Mommy!

Yesterday we had the privilege of hosting Karen's baby shower. What made this a little bit more special to us is that Karen is one of BMH's own brides! In 2006, we were honored to watch Karen and Manny marry.

It was so much fun to see her again; this time as a soon-to-be mommy! Karen, thank you so much for choosing Brandywine Manor House for these two important events. :)
Karen's baby shower was held in our Manor Barn. Her guests were seated amidst the twinkle lights in a blue and orange theme. There were many cute, little touches.



We adore these cute little vegetable cups! 




Soon-to-be mommy and soon-to-be Grammy!




Congratulations, Karen and Manny. Please feel free to send us a photo of your little one when he or she arrives! Wishing you and your new family all the best. :)
