Natalie and Tom began their married life together in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin in a beautiful, stand-out day of nostalgic elegance. 

Natalie wore a vintage drop-waist Carolina Herrera wedding gown, and with her hair swept half up, she was a Caroline Kennedy-esque bridal vision. The bodice of her dress was textured with a swirling, organic pattern and complete with short sleeves. This look evoked such an ageless flair, especially once her full ball gown skirt was bustled to expose her white lace heels. 

The two held their ceremony at St. Alphonsus Church and emerged Mr. and Mrs. Darrow, their grins knowing no bounds. Once happily wed, Natalie and Tom accompanied their family and spent a few moments together on the Lake. They sipped champagne and basked in the open sky. Natalie and Tom waved gracefully to their guests as they passed by on a passenger boat, before the whole wedding party and guests arrived at the dock of the Lake Geneva Country Club.

Natalie’s dress bodice was reflected in a buttercream pattern on the cake, and paired perfectly with puffs of indigo and periwinkle hydrangea, which filled the dining room. Lake Geneva Country Club was an ideal setting for these classic elements. Built in 1895, it had all the perfect accents and backdrops to accommodate Natalie’s vintage vision. 

The two exited through sparklers and rode off onto the lake! Our first trip to Lake Geneva, and we could not have felt more at home. We’re sending all of our best wishes to the newlywed Darrows!
