Some love stories are so special that they deserve to be celebrated over and over again. Cristina and George’s journey began on August 24, 1996, when they said “I do” in their native Romania. Twenty-five years later, they renewed their vows in a breathtaking ceremony at their Highland Park home, surrounded by family, close friends, and most importantly, their three wonderful sons.
A Garden Wedding to Remember
The couple transformed their private home into a dreamlike wedding venue, with a lush garden setting that provided a romantic and intimate backdrop for the day. The décor was nothing short of exquisite, with a sophisticated palette of white, green, and blue creating an elegant, European-inspired ambiance. Every detail, from the mirrored tables adorned with floral arrangements to the custom-printed invitations on clear Plexi, exuded timeless beauty and refinement.
A Night of Love & Celebration
Cristina and George’s vow renewal was more than just a ceremony—it was a heartfelt celebration of love, commitment, and the life they built together. The evening was filled with joy, laughter, and unforgettable moments, including Cristina’s surprise choreographed dance performance for George. “I felt like a winning star on Dancing With the Stars while performing the surprise dance,” Cristina shared, and judging by George’s reaction, he loved every second of it. The party continued well into the night, with a lively dance floor and special entertainment, including a floating performer in a giant bubble over the pool, adding a magical touch to the evening.
