Kelly and Corey's Fall wedding weekend at Dover Hall was an enchanting and personal affair captured beautifully by David Abel Photography. When booking the wedding weekend experience at Dover Hall you gain exclusive access to our estate for two exclusive days and two overnights for your 10 closest friends. Every moment from their Rehearsal Dinner in the Dining Room to the Wedding Reception in our Grand Ballroom was thoughtfully curated to perfection with planning by Swoon Soiree. The Flower Guy Bron added floral elegance that adorned the venue with deep red and light pink beauty and charm. A unique and sentimental touch was added by hanging notes in the Solarium, inviting guests to write heartfelt messages, and creating lasting memories for the couple.Â
The ceremony took place in the ballroom, where a live painter captured the love and emotion shared between Kelly and Corey, immortalizing the special day on canvas. For dinner, guests savored a delectable selection that included Oven Roasted Chicken Breast, Braised Lamb Leg, or Asparagus Risotto, offering a variety to suit every palate. For dessert, everyone indulged in the delightful combination of Lavender Lemon Gelato with Honeycomb Brittle, a sweet treat that added a touch of sophistication to the celebration. The tea ceremony in our Library added a cultural and meaningful element to their union, honoring tradition and family.Â
For late-night snacks, they offered their guests Fried Chicken Sliders and Truffle Fries to keep the energy lively as the festivities continued. Kelly and Corey's romantic last dance, shared in the Ballroom, was a heartfelt moment. Their wedding weekend at Dover Hall was the perfect blend of personal touches, cultural significance, and culinary delights, creating cherished memories that will be forever treasured by the couple and their loved ones.
Kelly and Corey’s maximalist wedding weekend earned the honor of a feature on The Knot.
