Shayla Hawkins Events Blog

From one Casilli child to the next, this week’s SHE blog features Zachary, who is the sister to Cara, our most recent blog, and his beautiful bride Avery. Avery + Zach’s wedding was a beautiful celebration of love. Each moment from the ceremony to the reception was perfect. The night ended with the guests on the dance floor all night long dancing to the sounds of DJ Digital Dave while also grabbing ice cream sundaes from Bella Christie’s nitro station. It was a night to remember + SHE was so happy to play a part!

When Carrie + Mike first started planning their wedding, SHE began calling it the Wedding Conference because it was going to be a whole weekend of events over Labor Day. Since covid made that impossible, Carrie + Mike switched their plans + had the most perfect + intimate outdoor ceremony + reception at Aspinwall Riverfront Park.

Once guests arrived, they enjoyed a small cocktail + then were witnesses to Carrie + Mike marrying themselves in a ceremony with their daughters. From there, all moved to the dinner reception where each couple had their own table + enjoyed 5 courses each with its own wine pairing + musical or comedic entertainment after each course. It was truly a beautiful night filled with what really matters, love + friendship.
