Leigha and Leo’s Basilica of the Sacred Heart wedding at Notre Dame was the perfect blend of elegance, romance, and fun. Surrounded by 150 loved ones, their day celebrated not just their union but also the place where their love story began.
For Leigha and Leo, Notre Dame holds a special place in their hearts. It’s where they met, fell in love, and began their journey together. The iconic Basilica, with its breathtaking architecture and spiritual significance, provided a stunning backdrop for their meaningful ceremony.
The couple chose a regal palette of maroon and gold for their wedding, creating an atmosphere of elegance and sophistication. Leigha wore a stunning gown by Gretchen Reese, and her bridal party complemented her look beautifully. Leo and his groomsmen looked sharp, adding to the day’s stylish vibe.
The florals, designed by MerryMe, perfectly accented the Basilica’s grandeur. The bold maroon and gold tones added richness and warmth to the ceremony and reception décor.
Leigha and Leo’s first dance to “Vienna” by Billy Joel was a moment filled with emotion and love. This special moment set the tone for an evening of joy and celebration.
The couple chose Navarre Catering to provide a delicious dining experience for their guests. Macri’s Bakery created a stunning and delicious wedding cake that became a centerpiece at their reception. The energy stayed high all night, thanks to InTune DJ, who kept the dance floor alive.
Just one day after their wedding, Leigha and Leo set off for their honeymoon in Italy. Exploring romantic cities, breathtaking landscapes, and Italian culture was the perfect way to begin their new chapter together.
Their advice to future couples is to embrace the journey and focus on what matters most to you as a couple. A personal connection to your venue, meaningful details, and a focus on love and joy will create memories to last a lifetime.
