Ah, the magic of summer—long days filled with warmth, laughter, and the promise of love in the air. As we bask in the glow of the sun’s golden rays and the gentle embrace of a balmy breeze, we are reminded of the beauty that summer brings to our lives.

Enter Joe and Morgan—a couple whose love story is as enchanting as a summer’s day. Their journey began amidst the festivities of a Fourth of July BBQ, where fate brought them together through mutual friends. Little did they know that this chance encounter would set the stage for a love story that would span the seasons.

Fast forward to a picturesque Fourth of July, where Joe chose the perfect moment to pop the question—on the sandy shores of the beach they both hold dear, in the very town where their love story began. It was a moment steeped in nostalgia and romance, a testament to their shared love for America, the beach, and the close-knit community of Long Beach, NY.

With hearts full of love and dreams of a lifetime together, Joe and Morgan embarked on the journey of planning their wedding day—a day that would capture the essence of their love story and celebrate their unique bond. It was during this journey that they discovered Gilbertsville Farmhouse—a venue that perfectly blended rustic charm with timeless elegance, setting the stage for a wedding day like no other.

Their wedding day was a celebration of love, laughter, and cherished moments shared with family and friends. Against the backdrop of Gilbertsville Farmhouse’s rustic glamour, Joe and Morgan exchanged vows, surrounded by the beauty of nature and the warmth of their loved ones’ blessings.

As we look back on Joe and Morgan’s beautiful day, we are reminded of the magic of summer—the season of love, laughter, and unforgettable memories. Here’s to Joe and Morgan, and to the countless couples whose love stories continue to inspire us all. May your journey together be filled with endless joy, laughter, and the enduring warmth of summer’s embrace.

Words from Morgan:

“When selecting a florist I wanted someone who could make an elegant, yet rustic bridal bouquet. Seeing the art of C & A Event Planning, they were the obvious choice. From beginning to end, C & A Event Planning did a fabulous job. Ashley took her time to speak with me and hear my wedding day vision. The flowers she helped me choose tied together my whole theme! Even when I needed to change something, she was approachable, flexible, and professional – always helping me to achieve the look I had imagined. On the day of my wedding, her mother and father set up all the flowers and they were just lovely! Their florals provided the perfect finishing touch for the ceremony and reception.”
