2025 Wed Society Delaware Wedding of the Year

Tess & David’s Brantwyn Estate celebration captured the title with thoughtful design, meaningful family heirlooms, and a celebration that beautifully represented Delaware weddings.

We’re excited to recognize Tess and David as the 2025 Wed Society Delaware Wedding of the Year.

Chosen by our community through head-to-head voting on Instagram Stories, their Brantwyn Estate celebration earned the honor.

A Wedding Rooted in Family

Some of the most memorable details honored family history.

Tess wore her mother’s veil, while her wedding band was created using diamonds from a family heirloom. Those personal touches became part of a celebration that balanced tradition with fresh, garden-inspired design.

Bridesmaids wore an intentionally mixed palette of deep greens, olives, and chartreuse, complementing the estate gardens and late-summer setting.

Garden-Inspired Design

Under the direction of A Sweet Affair Events, the reception paired colorful florals with fruit-filled tablescapes featuring grapes, pears, and figs. Bold stationery details added another layer of color against Brantwyn Estate’s classic architecture.

The combination of historic architecture and richly layered design made this one of the most distinctive weddings we featured all year.
