AUDREY ROSS & ANDREW OGDEN
February 12, 2021 / Brick Ballroom
Audrey and Andrew are a Tinder success story! They met when she made the first move using her Super Swipe in the summer of 2018.
Andrew proposed at Tavola Trattoria in downtown Bentonville, where the couple had their first date. After dinner, they walked around the square and talked about their relationship until finally, Andrew got down on one knee and popped the question!
INSPIRATION & IDEAS
A true non-conformist bride not wanting to follow common trends, Audrey looked for ways to incorporate details she’d never seen before. Although she planned most of her wedding, Audrey hired wedding planner Elizabeth Northrop from Bespoke Details to be her day-of coordinator. The Bespoke Details team took the reins come wedding day so Audrey could relax and enjoy her dream day.
“Don't stress about having the biggest wedding. We had an intimate wedding–it was everything and more. Small weddings are in!”
- Audrey Ross
MOMENTS & MEMORIES
Audrey bought three wedding dresses before choosing the one to go with. Just two weeks before the big day, she finally chose the perfect frock. “I am very indecisive, and I think any of the dresses could have worked,” Audrey said, “but ultimately, the one I chose to fit my personality the best and tied in the long train I loved.”
Audrey is so glad she splurged for the hanging floral installations. Its cascading white flowers were to die for!
A PLANNER'S TAKE
Audrey’s day-of coordinator Elizabeth said she loves working with clients who are thinking of the details that go into a wedding. She loves it when brides and grooms express themselves throughout their day and customize it to their relationship.
She particularly loved Audrey’s choice to blend edgy and feminine details into her big day. The modern-chic wedding was cool too with black and white as the color palette—embellished with glints of gold.
Audrey recommends breaking up the wedding planning process into smaller sections to avoid burnout or resentment.
“Take the risk. You are one-of-a-kind and your wedding will be too if you stay true to that...there are no rules. Show every side of you.”
