Catherine and Finlay celebrated their wedding in Spring Lake with a garden party by the beach—an elegant nod to the place Catherine has spent every summer growing up, and the coastal charm Finlay has come to love. Their love story began in London while studying at King’s College, sparked over pub socials, library lunches, and parties with friends. From long-distance years between Oxford and New Jersey to building a life together in D.C., their day was a heartfelt blend of personal history, transatlantic roots, and the joy of nostalgia.
