Brent and Andrew met in South Bend, Indiana, while Brent clerked for a federal judge and Andrew studied law at Notre Dame. Three years after a first date at a local Irish pub, they became engaged on campus. The May wedding used greens, navy, white, and gold and presented a traditional, masculine, formal, and joyful atmosphere. Hydrangeas honored Brent's grandmother. Invitations and a plaid escort display featured a custom emblem combining the couple's initials. Tableside pours of Billecart-Salmon Champagne accompanied an almond wedding cake with vanilla buttercream and tiramisu as a second dessert. Favorite moments included entering to Gustav Holst's "Thaxted" and ending to "Wagon Wheel."
"Attorneys Brent and Andrew met in South Bend, Indiana, while Brent was clerking for a federal judge and Andrew was studying law at Notre Dame. Three years after their first date at a local Irish pub, they got engaged on campus. The pair describe their May wedding-decorated in greens, navy, shades of white, and gold-as "traditional, masculine, formal, and joyful." Hydrangeas in the floral arrangements gestured to Brent's grandmother, whose summer yard, he recalls, always burst with the blooms."
"The invitations and a plaid escort display featured a custom emblem that combined their initials. Tableside pours of Billecart-Salmon Champagne were another special touch. In addition to an almond wedding cake with vanilla buttercream icing, guests were offered tiramisu as a second dessert. Two of Andrew's favorite memories: entering the ceremony with Brent to Gustav Holst's "Thaxted" playing on the organ, and ending the reception with the folksy rhythms of "Wagon Wheel.""
