Breathtaking Mountain Views
Matt: Peter and I met on a night where we were both expecting a casual night with friends at a bar. We laughed about how tired we were of our friends always trying to set us up with people, but ended up really hitting it off. We bonded over our love of female pop singers. Eventually, I got Peter to agree to go on a date with me.
Peter: Over the next four years of dating, we traveled a lot together. That spring, we had a vacation planned to Korea for cherry blossom season with a stop in Japan, after loving our trip there the year prior. When we got to Japan, we went on a hike at our favorite temple in Kyoto. When we reached the top of the mountain, adorned in cherry blossoms, I asked someone to take a photo of us, and got down on one knee and asked Matt to marry me.
Matt: We weren’t exactly sure what we wanted in a wedding venue, but we knew we wanted it to reflect us as a couple. Peter’s sister Gillian recommended The Garrison. Driving up to the estate was breathtaking and we loved the incredible views. The venue’s clean, modern look was perfect for us and we felt confident the floor-to-ceiling windows would give our wedding a beautiful spring feel in rain or shine. We worked with Bridget Bell, special events manager. From the planning to the day of, Bridget and her team made sure we didn’t have to worry about a single thing.
