Jenarda had a secret weapon in pulling off her dream wedding: her mother. Jenarda’s mother is a caterer and an event planner, so she knew her mother would do an awesome job of planning her elegant, purple color schemed wedding. The bride’s gorgeous and unique gold wedding dress complemented her royal color scheme perfectly. The beauty of Jenarda and Rudy’s wedding was captured by Chelsea Patricia Photography. Enjoy!

Description of the Event
The planning process for my wedding was a breeze. My mother is a caterer and an event planner, so we left a lot of the details in her hands. We didn’t have a particular theme, I just knew that I wanted lots of purple to be displayed in the decorations.
Wedding Style
I didn’t visit too many bridal shops when shopping for my gown. I spent a lot of hours online looking at all types of silhouettes that gowns come in. The dress I fell in love with was a Maggie Sottero, light gold, ball gown.
Most Memorable Moment
The most memorable part of that day was the ceremony… Everything after that went so fast.
You Make Loving You So Easy
From the Groom…He loves that I am more traditional than most women born in our generation.
From the Bride...I love his wit, and his intellectual conversations.
