Heather and Sam had their first date at a Starbucks on October 21, 2012, and were married four years later to the day on October 21, 2016. They also recreated their exact drink orders for the big day.
Heather donned a sleeveless, tea-length wedding dress made of tulle and lace, and stood atop white, Kelly & Katie T-strap heels. She also wore a sparking tiara upon her auburn hair. She held a bouquet of orange and purple tulips and roses, as did her three bridesmaids. Her bridesmaids modeled sleeveless, tea-length black dresses. Each member of the bridal party also wore Scottish scarves.
Sam, along with his groomsman and groomswoman, wore traditional Scottish formal wear with a black and purple color scheme. A small cluster of orange and purple flowers ornamented each lapel.
During the outdoor ceremony, Heather and Sam made an “unbreakable vow” as a nod to their mutual love of Harry Potter. They also included the word “always” several times during their vows, as Severus Snape “always” loved Lily Potter.
A brunch was later served, which included an omelet station. The three-tiered wedding cake was white with purple piping, and adorned in action figures like Thor, R2D2, a Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry crest, the TARDIS from Doctor Who, BB-8, Dorothy’s ruby slippers, Cinderella, and Darth Vader. Guests were treated to favors of Ferrero Rocher chocolates made to look a golden snitch.
During toasts, the Best Man said Heather and Sam are the most in love couple he’s ever seen. The couple later danced with their parents to “What a Wonderful World,” and invited guests for a “Good Luck Dance” – meaning everyone was on the dance floor.
We wish Heather and Sam all the luck in their new life together.
