A Classic Wedding at the Greenville Country Club in Wilmington, Delaware

Ann Marie Gamble, 29, a nurse practitioner, and Tim Buckelew, 30, an attorney, had their wedding reception at the Greenville Country Club in Wilmington, Delaware, which provided the charming space and classic style the couple envisioned for their special day. Since Ann Marie was attending graduate school and Tim was finishing law school, they hired a wedding planner to make sure the venue was decked out in the couple's choice of gold and champagne accents. The head table had gold candelabras with lit candles and a gold table runner on top of a champagne tablecloth, with colorful and lush flower arrangements. Ann picked out a simple wedding dress "Emilena" from Anastasia's Bridal and customized it with additional lace. "I wanted a dress that would look beautiful in photos many years from now," said Ann Marie. "I wasn't going for fashion forward or trendy. It is a sheath dress with a very comfortable satin fabric with a beautiful lace back." The groom wore a classic black tuxedo from Tuxedo House with a white tie and vest. While the groomsmen wore the same tuxedo as the groom with black bow ties, the bridesmaids wore champagne dresses that complimented the color scheme and theme of the wedding.

Ann Marie's engagement ring was her great grandmother's diamond ring placed in an exact replica of the original antique setting.
The couple chose simple white wedding invitations made by Apropos to send out to guests, with a timeless style that was similar to Ann Marie's mother and grandmother's own wedding invitations.
Ann Marie purchased the "Emilena" dress from Anastasia's Bridal, a simple white wedding dress that was traditional and comfortable. She brought it to Vicki Styles to customize the dress with lace on the bottom, back and shoulders.
The bride's wedding dress had lace accents near the shoulder, along with lace on the back and bottom of the dress, and was purchased from Anastasia's Bridal. The bride wore a custom veil with lace accents and silver jewelry from Nordstrom.
