All in the Details: How Justin & Brianna Personalized Their Day at The Bridge Lemont

When it comes to wedding planning, it’s the meaningful touches — big and small — that make the day truly unforgettable. Justin and Brianna’s wedding at The Bridge Lemont was filled with beautiful, personal moments that reflected their love story, their families, and their unique style.

A Private Vow Exchange by the Fireplace

Before the ceremony, the couple shared a private vow reading in our cozy lounge in front of the stone fireplace. This intimate moment gave them the chance to connect and center themselves before walking down the aisle — just the two of them, no distractions.

A Guestbook They’ll Treasure Forever

Instead of a traditional book, Justin and Brianna chose a custom watercolor illustration of The Bridge Lemont as their guestbook. Loved ones signed their names and left sweet messages around the artwork, creating a framed piece they’ll display in their home as a reminder of their day and all who celebrated with them.

A Ceremony Full of Meaning

The ceremony space was filled with soft draping, romantic florals, and candlelight — but one of the most memorable elements was the unity ritual. Instead of a candle or sand ceremony, Justin and Brianna chose to water and add soil to a potted plant, symbolizing the growth and nurturing of their relationship. A fresh and earthy take on tradition.

Cheers at One Eleven Martini Parlour

Before heading into their reception, Justin and Brianna slipped away to enjoy a cocktail at One Eleven Martini Parlour — a local favorite just steps from the venue. This quick escape gave them time to toast, soak in the moment, and share a laugh together before rejoining the celebration.

A Seating Chart That Told a Story

Guests found their names displayed in vintage-style frames hung on a black arched board, framed with florals and candles. The words “At every table, I’ll save you a seat” were displayed front and center — a poetic nod to inclusion and memory, adding both beauty and sentiment to the welcome area.

Elegant and Personalized Place Settings

Their tables were designed with warm gold tones, amber glassware, and soft blush linens. Each guest’s name was laser-cut in modern script and placed atop their napkin — a simple touch that made every seat feel thoughtfully reserved.
