Overlook Farm

Just when we thought we had seen ‘unique,’ along came Debra and Brian!  This bearded man and tattooed lady asked us to help them create a Midway Carnival theme for their most unconventional wedding celebration.  Married at the Overlook by a minister sporting a top hat and tails (think master of ceremonies in the center ring), with guest served freshly popped popcorn, seated on straw bales and led down the hillside path to the reception by an acrobat and stilt walker, this wedding turned almost every nuptial tradition on its ear.  Scratch the wedding cake and replace it with a “tower of candy” (consisting of the bride’s personal favorites),  replace the head table with bar height rounds for all, substitute the buffet table for 5 active food stations served to guests straight from the wood fired oven and grills, with guests invited “behind the counter” to interact with the chefs. Sipping on a cocktail created just for Debra and Brian’s big day, guests could watch as their commemorative t-shirts were printed in front of them.  The warmth from the outdoor fire pit was no match for the warmth created by Debra and Brian towards their family and friends. The love and affection they exhibited made for a joyous and heartfelt celebration. It may not have been “the greatest show on earth” but it was certainly the greatest wedding many of their guests had ever attended.
