The bride rocked an ivory ballgown with a silk, radzmir crossover bodice, full tulle skirt with horsehair flounces, and a chapel-length train, while her bridesmaids wore slightly different sage dresses.
“Our ceremony felt so personal and Heinz Chapel was so beautiful,” Cassie says. “I still cry when I watch our wedding video!”

ove was in full bloom on Cassie Fickley and Dylan Holt’s wedding day, which featured a garden theme with romantic, bohemian touches. After the ceremony at Heinz Memorial Chapel, where the bride walked down the aisle to the acoustic version of “Latch” by Sam Smith, guests made their way to the patio reception at the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts. Incorporating dusty blue, sage, champagne, and peach, the space became an idyllic setting for the al fresco celebration. Green garland table runners, punctuated by white flowers and pillar candles, added to the theme, along with the naked cake, adorned with peach florals. Guests even went home with packets of wild flower seeds with tags that said “Watch Love Grow.” The couple’s “beautiful day shared with close family and friends” was highlighted by even more special surprises, including Cassie serving up a groom’s cake at the rehearsal dinner and Dylan placing a glass cardinal on their sweetheart table in remembrance of Cassie’s late grandmother. “Surprises like these allowed us to enjoy special moments together, just the two of us.” W
