Alicia and Brandon's NYE Wedding at Wyndridge Farms

Alicia was always adamant about not leaving the bustling city of Washington, D.C. and returning to her hometown in Pennsylvania. She believed that her chances of finding love were greater in a larger city. However, love had its own plans when a swipe right brought her and Brandon together during a visit home. It was her deep affection for Brandon, his children, and their families that drew her back PA. She also realized that home was where love and happiness resided, and it was obvious that PA was the place to build their lives together.

Brandon’s love for Alicia knew no bounds, and he wanted to create a proposal that would forever be etched in their memories. With the generosity of his father, he had Alicia’s engagement ring crafted as a special token of their love. Unable to contain his excitement, Brandon couldn’t wait for their planned dinner out. Instead, he proposed in their home, surprising Alicia with the ring she had helped design. Overwhelmed with joy, she said yes, laughing at Brandon’s adorable impatience. It was a perfect moment that marked the beginning of their journey towards marriage.

Alicia and Brandon rang in the new year with 150 of their closest friends and family members, who gathered at Wyndridge to welcome 2023 and toast to the Knaubs’ future. Brandon’s son and daughter served as his best man and best woman, while Alicia’s two sisters were her matron and maid of honor.

Their wedding marked a historic moment for the venue as it was the very first time the outdoor patio was fully tented. While they enjoyed their dinner, guests were completely unaware that behind the scenes the venue’s team was dismantling the ceremony space and turning it into a sensational late-night hangout. The newly created ambiance boasted a lively dance floor, mesmerizing multicolored lights, cozy lounges, a dedicated cigar station, a well-stocked bar, and personal high-top tables where guests could indulge in s’mores. The countdown to midnight was a pinnacle of joy and celebration as pizza slices were devoured, champagne toasts filled the air, and sparklers were ignited.

Alicia and Brandon defied the odds and set the stage for a beautiful love story. Their journey from Arlington, VA, to York, PA, was filled with surprises, laughter, and the ultimate celebration of their union on a magical New Year’s Eve. And they prove that love knows no limits when it comes to creating magical memories!
