How the Couple Met

Chelsea and Richie’s love story began the way many modern romances do—on a dating app. For their first date, they grabbed ice cream, which also happened to be Richie’s birthday. What started as a quick treat turned into hours of effortless conversation, laughter, and instant connection. “It just felt so easy,” Chelsea shared. “We both left feeling like there was something really special between us.”

The Wedding Day

On April 26, 2025, Chelsea and Richie tied the knot at The Rural Society at The Warwick Farm in Mount Vernon, Ohio. The venue’s lush grounds and charming greenhouse created a seamless backdrop for both their ceremony and reception, giving the entire day an intimate, graceful flow. Their full-service planner, Auburn & Ivory, guided the entire planning process from start to finish, handling everything from the logistics to stylistic details—and designing all of the couple’s stationery and signage as well.

Chelsea looked radiant in a gown from Attelé Bridal, designed by Sophia Tolli. She paired her dress with a flowing veil from Blanca Veils and elegant Loeffler Randall heels. Her jewelry added personal depth to her look—her rings from Star Jewelers sparkled alongside meaningful heirloom touches everyone incorporated throughout the day. Richie looked classic and timeless in his attire from Jos. A. Bank, with a wedding band from Star Jewelers on High.

The bridesmaids wore beautiful Pistachio gowns from Azazie, complementing the garden setting perfectly. The bridal party glam team included stylists from Le Rêve with Carole B. for hair and Sheree for makeup. Haylie Angelo did the bride’s hair color and cut. 

The couple’s ceremony, officiated by Rabbi Benjy Bar-Lev, took place among the abundant blooms and curated garden spaces that make The Rural Society at Warwick Farms so iconic. The florals for Chelsea and Richie’s wedding were designed in-house by the talented team at The Rural Society at Warwick Farm. Their homegrown approach brought an effortless, garden-forward feel to the entire day. Chelsea’s bouquet—filled with soft apricot roses, delicate whites, and touches of airy blue—perfectly reflected the venue’s natural charm. From the ceremony to the greenhouse reception, every arrangement felt organic, romantic, and beautifully tied to the landscape around them.

Entertainment throughout the day included a string duo from Bexley String Quartet, and an unforgettable reception by DJ AXCESS that blended Chelsea and Richie’s love for music together perfectly. DJ AXCESS also provided lighting that transformed the venue into a warm, glowing celebration space.

Guests enjoyed a delicious meal catered by Seed to Serve, known for their fresh made from scratch recipes.

Desserts included an elegant cake from Nursery Lane Baking Co that perfectly complemented the surrounding decor.

Every candid moment, heartfelt exchange, and design detail was beautifully captured by Oh Miss Megan Photography, who documented the day with both artistry and intention. Chelsea and Richie also brought in wedding content creator Wedding Days With Dania, ensuring they had real-time candid memories captured from every angle. 

The evening before, Chelsea and Richie hosted their rehearsal dinner at Tony’s Italian Ristorante—the same spot where Chelsea’s parents celebrated their rehearsal dinner 41 years earlier, making the moment especially meaningful. 

Chelsea and Richie’s Vendor Team

For Chelsea and Richie, their vendor team became so much more than a collection of wedding professionals—they became their support system, creative partners, and biggest hype squad.

“Once we had our dream team in place, we were beyond excited,” Chelsea shared. “Every vendor was incredible—so encouraging, so uplifting, and they kept us feeling confident the entire day.”

Their team not only executed the couple’s vision but elevated it at every turn. From calming nerves and stepping in during stressful moments to offering creative ideas that added depth and personality, their vendors worked in perfect harmony.

Thanks to their photographers, creators, designers, musicians, planners, florists, and culinary experts, Chelsea and Richie’s wedding felt immersive, intentional, and deeply personal. Most importantly, every moment was captured beautifully so they can remember their day forever.
