Chad and Al’s wedding was the perfect art deco wedding in a castle. The couple had a Great Gatsby-inspired wedding at North Carolina castle. Al and Chad went for a black tie look for their ceremony. The couple exchanged vows inside the stone castle dimly lit by a large chandelier. The wedding party wore black floor-length gowns and held bouquets made of greenery.
For the reception, the marriers changed into white jackets. The wedding party dined with Al and Chad a long table while guests sat a round tables, all decorated with black linens, gold chairs and tall, white feather centerpieces. The wedding cake was a five tier cake decorated with white icing and natural greenery that matched the bouquets wrapping each tier.
