On the day of the grand rolling rally celebrating the Boston Red Sox winning of the World Series, a charming couple had their wedding reception here at the Hawthorne Hotel. When they were planning their wedding we doubt that the potential of a Red Sox win of the World Series was even a dot on the horizon, but things have a way of working themselves out the way they need to, and that was indeed the case.
The couple, Jennifer and Scott, are a bride who is an avid Red Sox fan, and a groom who adores the Yankees -- what a combination! We are so happy that at least one of "their" teams won!!!
They spent a lot of time and effort creating just the special touches to add a major league baseball flair to their special day. Here are some photos so you can see their ideas yourself.
The placecard table featured a field of dreams for this young couple (above) and the placecards were darling "tickets" which were done so nicely to really replicate a ticket to a ballgame.
Instead of a guestbook, they had a guest "bat" for their guests to sign. Such a clever idea!
A view of the room from the "grandmother" windows.
The centerpieces also functioned as the table numbers, and featured peanuts in the shell and baseballs on a field of "grass" -- so special!
The bouquets were made to look like baseballs -- such fun.
Their wedding cake was separated into tiers using cut baseball bats.
The "groom" and "bride" sat next to the cake instead of top -- and it was a good thing or I'm not sure we could have gotten a close-up of the cake at all.
A panoramic view of the Ballroom shows you just how tall the cake was -- talk about a home run!
I hope you enjoy this view of this very special wedding, and that it inspires you to make your wedding your own special day as well.
