Natalie and Andy met through mutual friends. They really hit it off and started spending more time together, which lead into dating! They found that they both loved each others sense of humor and watching movies together! Andy decided he wanted to ask Natalie to be his forever girl! He surprised Natalie with a trip to Big Bear, CA. Andy rented a cabin and said they were going to spend the whole weekend away together before Andy went back to school. On Saturday morning, Andy asked Natalie to get ready, but not to come out of the bedroom until she heard music. When she walked out, there were candles and flower petals down the staircase that went out the door. Andy was waiting outside, he took her hand and they walked up to a clearing. Andy got down on one knee and asked Natalie to marry him. Natalie cried non-stop ,it was perfect! Oh and of course she said “yes.” These two really enjoy watching movies, walking their dog, Chubbs and trying out new foods and restaurants. For their honeymoon Natalie and Andy are taking a European Discovery tour (9 countries in 16 days). England, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, France, and back to London. They wanted to see the countries of their heritages (Him- German, Her- Italian) and all the beautiful countries in between.

We loved working at the beautiful Grand Tradition! Here is what another bride thought!!
“Charnel Kennedy, Alexis, Cameron, Elle, and other staff truly created and amazing day for me and my husband. It was so wonderful to know that Charnel was only a phone call, email, or text away to assist with literally everything. She and the team helped to make for me a day that was filled with drama and heartache (as my best friend of over 2 years ended our relationship 24 hours before the wedding) into a day of love and happiness. My daughter who originally stated she could not make the wedding, surprised me by flying home from her Army base is South Korea for 3 days on a 19 hour flight that cost her over $1400.00. I wanted my daughter as my maid of honor. (The reason for this detail is I truly want to express how emotional and how upset I was on what is suppose to be one of the happiest days of my life). My friend and I had discussed months prior that if my daughter could make it home that she would graciously step aside and unfortunately that did not happen. Needless to say there was so much drama. My father could not be in attendance as he is fatally ill on the East Coast.
Charnel was right there to help me calm down, to encourage me, and to remind me that I am surrounded by the people who truly care and love me…. while also managing the wedding day itself…. helping me into my dress, making sure the ceremony site and reception site were on point and so much more. I had no family of my own at the ceremony other than my daughter and my God Mother which was difficult, yet Charnel kept me focused on what really matter and who really mattered. Alexis and Cameron were by her side to assist with all the details, including keeping me hydrated, helping me get ready, and holding tissues under my eyes so my makeup would not be ruined. These ladies were amazing.
The venue is simply incredible. I can not think of a more beautiful place for a couple to say their vows. The service, the food, the staff, simply everything was truly so wonderful. I am very grateful that we chose Grand Tradition as our venue. I am so very thankful to everyone who helped deal with an over emotional bride and create a beautiful and spectacular memory.”
