A Wedding at The Garland: Gina and David

Gina and David's wedding at The Garland paired red-and-white florals with a garden ceremony, intimate portraits, and a modern hotel reception.

Gina Reidder and David Heredia celebrated at The Garland with a red, white, and black palette that carried from the invitation suite into the ceremony and reception. The hotel's gardens gave them a lush setting for vows and portraits without leaving the property.

The final gallery combines polished details, emotional family moments, and an energetic evening.

Personal Wedding Details

Hand-lettered signs welcomed guests and introduced the couple's names, while white flowers with deep red accents established the day's color story. Gina's jewelry and David's black suit kept the overall look classic.

Photographing the invitation, rings, and florals together made those choices part of the opening chapter.

A Garden Wedding Ceremony

The garden ceremony placed Gina and David beneath mature trees, surrounded by white chairs and red flower petals. The setting felt intimate while still giving the wedding party and guests room to share in the moment.

Their first kiss brought a burst of movement and celebration to the ceremony photographs.

Portraits Around The Garland

White roses, clipped hedges, and shaded paths gave the couple several portrait settings within a short walk. We kept their movement relaxed and used the architecture only where it added a clean frame.

A nighttime portrait on the hotel's geometric staircase added a modern counterpoint to the garden images.
