Julia and Andrew’s Wedding at the Hyatt Regency New Brunswick

The symbol at Julia and Andrew’s wedding at the Hyatt Regency New Brunswick was the tree of life. Both Julia and Andrew have a certain earthiness and an infectious vitality, so it was the perfect symbol to represent them. They  — and their friends — *really* rocked the night out at their reception. They had a wonderful live band, Missiondance, but the line between band and wedding guests was blurred by the end of the evening. Musicians were dancing with the guests, the bridal party was singing on stage, the groom was jamming, and the bride was full of hugs and kisses for her new husband.

One more thing — you have to check out the utterly adorable hippo wedding cake toppers that Julia’s relatives found on Etsy! The designer is a confectionary artist based in Sardinia, Italy, called PassionArte.
