The Cloisters Castle in Lutherville, MD was the perfect location for Sarah & Howard’s wedding and celebration. Yesterday’s festivities began with a ceremony held in the Castle’s outdoor garden patio. After reading their vows to each other, Officiant Simmone Marsden had Sarah & Howard seal their commitment of love with a kiss before “Tous les garçons et les filles” by Francoise Hardy was played for their recessional. Everyone moved inside for cocktails and the formal introduction of the Bridal Party. Iggy Pop’s “Passenger” was played by DJ Frank Marsden as he introduced everyone to their tables followed by a wonderful stations style meal provided by our friends from Zeffert and Gold Catering. Folks enjoyed a relaxed, extended meal and music from artists such as Tears For Fears, Modest Mouse, The Cure, Ultravox and others. Sarah welcomed and thanked everyone for being a part of their big day before she and her husband cut their cake and “Opium Tea” by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds was played. The celebration turned into a dance party with DJ Frank working from the Bride & Groom’s playlist and fielding requests for songs by David Bowie, Little Richard, Bruce Springsteen, Gipsy Kings, Johnny Cash, Beastie Boys and many more. We loved the diversity in Mr. & Mrs. Brown’s playlist and so did their guests! Sarah tossed her bouquet at the end of the evening while “Naive Melody (This Must Be The Place) by Talking Heads was playing and then to wrap up a wonderful night, “La La Love You” by The Pixies was played next. It was so nice to meet Sarah & Howard and help them create their vision. We thank them and their great vendor team: Officiant & Wedding Coordinator, Simmone Marsden, Zeffert and Gold Catering, SugarBakers Cakes, Kate Ann Photography, Editing Life Videography and the friendly Cloisters Castle Staff.
