{real couple} Brianna + Peter at Franklin Park Conservatory

by Erika on March 8, 2011

I think it would be difficult to find a more poignant and beautiful case for same-sex marriage rights than Brianna and Peter’s spring wedding at the Franklin Park Conservatory. Brianna’s brother is gay and it was very important to Peter and her to highlight their acceptance of gay and lesbian rights to marry in their own stunning ceremony.

I thought it was especially lovely that the couple donated to the Human Rights Campaign in honor of each guest to support the organization’s work toward achieving equality and ending discrimination against LGBT citizens. In addition to having a touching, personal message, Peter and Brianna’s wedding was filled with gorgeous bursts of color and details ~ all expertly captured by Wagner Photographics.

The botanical garden and conservatory in Columbus, Ohio is simply gorgeous. It’s a classic English conservatory that was built in 1895 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. I love the scenery and lighting inside, and Brianna and Peter’s choices in fresh florals are nothing short of breathtaking.
