Real Weddings: Jennifer & Ryan Gibbs

Jennifer & Ryan Gibbs
September 29, 2007
Waynesborough Country Club, Paoli

It all started in the place where only the rarest of lifelong romances begin — in high school. And after eight years of dating — and a surprise trip, proposal and celebration in Miami — Ryan and Jennifer Gibbs said their “I do’s” last fall in front of 150 guests on the lawn of Waynesborough Country Club. For them, it was all about the ambience — creating a glowing feeling of warmth and celebration for themselves and their guests. And thanks to the fabulous local vendors responsible for delivering the vibe, the day was a huge success: “I remember peeking out the window before the wedding as I was getting ready, seeing the ceremony site, and crying,” says Jennifer. “It was exactly how I envisioned it.”
