Editorial Guidelines Updated on September 20, 2018 Share Tweet Pin Email Trending Videos Tracy And Andrew Jose Villa Tracy Long, a fashion stylist who grew up in Chesapeake, Virginia, Andrew Goodwin, a portfolio manager from Darien, Connecticut, at a mutual friend's party in New York City in 2010. Andrew remembers that he "couldn't help but notice her friendly smile and sparkling eyes." And Tracy thinks their different backgrounds only added to the attraction: "Me being Southern," says Tracy, "I always tease him that I've made his life a little bit more fun." Her roots definitely made his wedding more memorable. Since she was a little girl, Tracy knew she wanted to get married at Keswick Hall of Monticello, a Charlottesville-area hotel that she'd visited with her family. Sure enough, the October 6, 2012, wedding was held on the property. Dinner followed in a tent on a terrace, then dancing in the ballroom. The entire event featured the best of the North and South coming together, from the flowers designed by a Brooklyn-based florist to the country music played by a band from Atlanta. 01 of 19 Welcome Bags Jose Villa Upon arrival to Keswick Hall, guests received welcome bags containing made-in-Virginia treats including peanuts, pears, and kettlecorn. 02 of 19 The Invitations Jose Villa The invitations, by Sideshow Press, featured calligraphy by Elizabeth Porcher Jones and a velvet ribbon letterpressed with the pair's initials. 03 of 19 The Bouquet Jose Villa The bride's bouquet featured ivory dahlias and seasonal foliage. 04 of 19 Bridesmaids Jose Villa Tracy's 10 bridesmaids wore blush Monique Lhuillier gowns, plus a maid and matron of honor who wore dresses by Pamella Roland. 05 of 19 Stationery Jose Villa Programs featured their joint initials and a velvet ribbon.
