An evening rooted in community and inspiration. Bringing together founders, leaders and visionaries. Proud to have supported this amazing gala for more than 15 years…
That feeling when you’ve found ✨your person✨
Ivy and Zach’s day felt like a dream: an intimate celebration at their private residence, surrounded by loved ones, with an alfresco dinner set along a long table framed by greenery and summer light. ☀️🌿
One of the most meaningful moments came quietly. We slipped away to the river, where they exchanged private vows 🤍 just the two of them, uninterrupted, exactly as it should be.
Beautifully brought to life by @countdownevents , every detail was thoughtfully considered - from the affogato bar to a poolside dance floor that carried the celebration late into the evening 🌙
Effortless, intimate, and deeply personal… It truly was a day that felt entirely their own. 🫶🏼
