Personalized Ceremony at Bedford Springs Resort

Kate and Jeff’s ceremony was anything but standard, thanks to the inclusion of several personal touches. Kate’s long-time friend and former church Young Life leader, Tim O’Brien, officiated the ceremony and her twin brother Michael, an accomplished composer, and cousin Chris Mann, a gifted singer and finalist on the show “The Voice,” performed a touching rendition of “Ave Maria” during the unity candle lighting. “It was absolutely breathtaking,” says Kate. “Our guests were blown away by their talent.”
