Julia & Benjamin | Garden Wedding at Shepherd’s Run | South Kingstown RI

Congratulations to Julia and Benjamin! Their wedding was a perfect blend of tradition and modern elegance, beautifully captured at Saint John Vianney Parish and the stunning Shepherd’s Run in South County RI. Their celebration was simple and natural yet romantic, with a touch of fall charm that created an elegant atmosphere. From the moment they first saw Shepherd’s Run, they knew it was the perfect place for their big day. They were drawn to its timeless beauty—particularly the grand spiral staircase inside the manor, the picturesque vineyard, and the serene Beatrix’s Garden.

Julia and Benjamin’s wedding was the epitome of autumn elegance. Julia’s dress was a true showstopper, with delicate lace draping gracefully over her shoulder and intricate buttons running down the back. She especially adored the sparkle in her veil, which added just the right amount of magic to her bridal look. Their color palette featured deep red, peach, and white florals, creating a warm and romantic fall aesthetic, complemented by mint green napkins for a soft, refreshing touch.

For the reception, Julia and Benjamin focused on enhancing the beauty of the venue with carefully curated decor. Every detail was thoughtfully chosen—including their charming Mickey and Minnie-inspired cake topper, a subtle nod to their shared love of Disney. Shepherd’s Run provided the perfect backdrop for this special day, offering a seamless blend of elegance, intimacy, and charm. Thanks to an incredible vendor team, Julia and Benjamin’s vision came to life, creating a breathtaking start to their marriage.

A Tip for Our Couples…

If you’re planning large group photos at the church or any other part of your wedding day, it’s helpful to announce it to your guests in advance. Whether during the ceremony or right after, a simple announcement ensures everyone knows they’re needed for the photos—preventing guests from leaving too soon.

This isn’t taboo at all! In fact, clear communication helps keep everything organized and ensures your wedding day flows smoothly—especially when capturing those once-in-a-lifetime moments with loved ones.
