After a romantic proposal on the beach in Greece, Tess and Andrew celebrated their marriage with a burgundy, blush wedding at The Bell Tower.
When it came to finding their perfect venue Tess told us, "We both wanted something that was simple but elegant and had a lot of natural beauty!" Enter The Bell Tower.
When the day finally came, Tess was dressed in a stunning backless blush gown from Olia Zavozina. She had her girls in mix-and-match burgundy dresses that paired perfectly with their rose-filled florals.
For the ceremony, they went with a classic look. A string light backdrop added a soft glow to the space while tall arrangements of greenery on natural wood pillars framed the altar.
For Tess and Andrew, the ceremony was their most memorable moment of the day because they kept with tradition and opted out of a first look.
"Seeing each other for the first time that day got both of us pretty emotional," Tess said.
Following the ceremony and cocktail hour on the patio, this taco-loving couple threw it back to the first time they met on a Taco Tuesday. For dinner, they chose dinner stations including chicken, brisket, and cheese quesadillas. Taco 'bout yum!
Kicking off the night, Tess and Andrew danced to "Stolen" by Dashboard Confessional. This song was originally Tess' morning alarm, but it quickly gained much more meaning over the years.
It was important to them to spend quality time with friends and family above all else, so instead of a send-off, guests shared a last dance with the newlyweds.
