Christine and Eric were married on a beautiful late September afternoon in Louisville, Kentucky, surrounded by their closest friends and family. Their ceremony took place in the gardens at Gardencourt, creating the perfect setting for the elegant and colorful day they had envisioned.

Early fall was just beginning to show in the gardens, and the changing leaves added beautiful touches of color throughout the property. Their palette of peacock blue and champagne paired perfectly with the early autumn setting.
