Gretchen walked through the elegant reception tables of the 3 Ten Event Venue with her hands over her mouth. The ceremony space was prepared for its reveal. Approaching her altar installation, I heard Gretchen’s voice through tears: “It’s beautiful.” Beholding the intention and design, she walked nearer and then circled back to her mother for a […]

Olive Branch Farm couldn’t have been more of a perfect venue for Haley & Zach’s wedding.

Just days before their wedding date, coronavirus forced The Grand to call with horrible, devastating news: there would be no wedding that Saturday. COViD-19 lockdowns began. The shock of such […]
