Christina and Ben’s October wedding at the elegant Maison Albion was a perfect blend of romance, family, and heartfelt moments. The couple, known for their sweet and kindhearted nature, envisioned a timeless garden-style celebration, and Maison Albion provided the ideal backdrop. Their day began with the anticipation of their first look as Christina walked down the aisle, a moment filled with raw emotion and love after being apart for the longest time in their recent memory. Every detail of the wedding décor was carefully chosen to enhance the venue’s natural beauty, with subtle seasonal touches that added warmth and charm without overwhelming the space.
Family played an integral role in Christina and Ben’s celebration, making it deeply personal and meaningful. As proud Aunt and Uncle to 11 nieces and nephews, the couple included eight of them in the ceremony as flower girls, ring bearers, and a junior groomsman. A dear friend officiated their vows, adding an intimate touch to the proceedings. Christina’s late brother was honored with a reserved seat at the ceremony and touching tributes during the reception, ensuring his memory was a part of their day. These thoughtful details, combined with the joy of seeing all their loved ones come together, created an atmosphere of love and unity that resonated throughout the day.
The reception was a delightful celebration of everything Christina and Ben love. Guests enjoyed a fall-inspired signature cocktail, “Benny’s Poison Apple,” which was one of the first drinks Ben ever made Christina. The couple’s menu showcased local favorites, with a custom buffet from Orange Glory Cafe and desserts like apple fritters and mini treats from beloved vendors. Ben and Christina’s first dance as husband and wife was a highlight, a moment they’d eagerly awaited as their chance to be in the spotlight together. The day was filled with joy, laughter, and meaningful moments, and it was an honor to capture these memories for such a kind and genuine couple. We wish Christina and Ben all the best!
