Justin Alexander Wedding Dress | Hartford City Hall

Samantha purchased a gorgeous Justin Alexander Signature gown to wear to her classic, intimate wedding, to Brendan in June 2024. The ceremony was held at the historical Hartford City Hall with its infamous winding staircase that showcased her gown beautifully. Brendan and Samantha were married before just twenty of their family and friends, with no small detail overlooked. A string quartet played as Samantha walked down the first floor atrium as guests looked on before coming up the brass elevator to meet her groom, later returning to the atrium for first dances.
The newlyweds celebrated with an elegant dinner reception at Max Downtown, also in Hartford, in a room transformed vintage touches sourced by the couple, linens custom made by the bride’s the mother, and napkins tied in a bow— a nod to Samantha’s stunning Justin Alexander gown, complete with a temporary tattoo station for guests.  Instead of a traditional cake cutting, the couple toasted and cut their own baked Alaska before guests were served desserts. It was the perfect celebration after the most perfect day.
