If
there were a wedding that defined the word “love”, it would be the marriage of
Kara Frank and Brendan Williams-Kief.
The love that Kara and Brendan have for each other is evident from the
moment you meet them. They are
lighthearted, carefree and such a joy to be around. The love that they have for each other, as well as their
friends and their family, is contagious.
Kara
and Brendan met in college. There
is no doubt that these two were always the life of the party. This couple knows
how to have a great time! To top
it off, they have some serious dance skills! Kara and Brendan didn’t leave the dance floor all night. There were multiple VERY impressive
“dance off” moments throughout the evening. It was some of the best dancing that I have ever seen at a
wedding.
Kara and Brendan not only owned the dance floor, but they owned my heart that evening. In lieu of favors, the couple made a donation to Alex’s Lemonade Stand, which raises money to help fight children’s cancer.

SoCo Events was hired as a “Month of Planner” to assist the bride and groom with the details and execution of their dream day. Kara and Brendan had decided upon an ‘Elegant Garden Evening’ theme with a gorgeous color selection of navy blue and blush pink. Their venue, The Meridian House, was perfect. The Ceremony was held in the Linden Grove beneath a canopy of trees with hanging lanterns. The sounds of the string quartet set the mood for a beautifully romantic evening. The ‘first dance’ was to the song “Just Like Heaven” by the Cure. Brendan was singing to Kara as they swayed under the beautiful chandelier with all of the guests surrounding them.
This
was followed by an elegant candle-lit dinner in the dining room and library
with heartfelt toasts from the bride’s parents, maid of honor and best
man. The evening concluded with
the newleyweds being sent off through a cheering crowd and sparklers to be whisked
away in a vintage Bentley to their honeymoon destination of Portugal.
