The venue itself, The Willows at Ashcombe Mansion, played a crucial role in setting the tone for their Italian garden party theme. Kamryn described the instant connection they felt, noting, “From the instant we drove up from the road, the ambience was incredibly timeless and romantic.” This historic Victorian mansion, nestled within 22 acres of beautifully maintained gardens, offered the perfect backdrop for their vision. To enhance the “end-of-summer garden party” atmosphere, the couple incorporated cheerful pops of yellow throughout the décor, from the bridesmaid dresses to lemon-themed accents. The floral arrangements and tablescapes, expertly crafted by Burke & Poppy, further elevated the elegance, creating an immersive and enchanting scene for all in attendance.

For Kamryn and Chandler, their wedding was deeply rooted in celebrating with their loved ones. As Kamryn explained, “No matter where we were in the planning process, we envisioned them with us as we dreamt up every detail.” This sentiment underscored their desire to create an experience where friends and family were not just guests, but integral parts of the celebration. “We wanted to be surrounded by the people we love most, have a good time, and just feel the love all around,” Kamryn shared, emphasizing the importance of personal connection on their special day. While planning a wedding can be stressful, Kamryn credited Chandler, a marketing communications specialist, for keeping her grounded and focused on what truly mattered: “It’s our day, we’re marrying each other and nothing else matters.” This perspective allowed them to truly savor each moment.

Ahead of the formal ceremony, Kamryn and Chandler shared a deeply personal moment, exchanging handwritten vows during their first look. Later, in front of their guests, they recited traditional vows, solidifying their commitment. As Kamryn walked down the aisle to Edwin McCain’s heartfelt song “I’ll Be,” she was a vision in a Made with Love “Cameron” dress. The gown, featuring a plunging neckline, a figure-hugging skirt, and a low V back, was adorned with tulle bows, intricate hand-beaded accents, and 3D lace details. “I felt elegant, angelic, sophisticated. It was perfect, and I couldn’t picture myself wearing anything else,” Kamryn recalled, highlighting the dress’s perfect embodiment of her bridal vision. Her natural, glowing makeup, skillfully applied by MUA Enna, completed her stunning bridal look. Adding a personal touch to the ceremony, a lifelong family friend officiated, and Chandler’s sister, serving as matron of honor, had the joy of announcing them as husband and wife. Kamryn fondly remembers the authentic and heartfelt nature of their ceremony, embracing the beautiful imperfections: “We messed up words, we laughed, we cried and most importantly were us. It felt so real and authentic.”

The celebration continued into the reception, where live violin music by Luke J. Hughes filled the air, fulfilling a long-held wedding dream of Kamryn’s. Guests enjoyed a delectable plated dinner catered by JDK, featuring penne alla vodka with airline chicken breast and steak and frites. Dessert offered a sweet conclusion with slices of a three-tier marble vintage-style wedding cake and cannoli chips and dip. The newlyweds shared their first dance to Justin Bieber’s romantic hit “Lifetime,” followed by a touching father-daughter dance. In a surprise tribute to her mother, Kamryn continued a cherished family tradition, inviting her mom for a special dance to “their song,” extending the invitation to all mother-daughter pairs present, creating a deeply emotional and memorable moment for everyone.

Reflecting on her wedding day, Kamryn described it as “an absolute fairytale” from beginning to end. “The weather was gorgeous and the sun was shining bright for us. The entire day felt straight out of an early 2000s rom-com, and we were blown away by how everything came together so beautifully,” she recounted. The overwhelming joy of having all their loved ones together was palpable: “Having all of the people we love the most in the same room with us was a feeling like no other. It was better than our wildest dreams.”

Kamryn and Chandler’s journey to marriage began in 2019 when they met through a mutual friend. They intentionally built their relationship over six months before becoming official in August of that year. “We both knew that this relationship was special and wanted to make sure that we were being intentional, and building a friendship foundation before taking the next step. We knew once we started, it was going to last,” Kamryn explained. Chandler proposed on Christmas Day 2021 in an intimate setting at his family home. “There was no one else around, just him and me,” Kamryn shared, emphasizing their preference for private and personal moments.

Looking forward, Kamryn and Chandler are excited about embarking on their married life together, with plans for travel and shared adventures. “We want to take a few years just to be us and soak up every bit of married life,” Kamryn stated. “Chandler has always and continues to bring out the best in me, and we are so excited for a lifetime of growing, challenging and inspiring each other.” Fittingly, their honeymoon is a 10-day escape to Switzerland and Italy, starting in Grindelwald, Switzerland, then exploring Lake Como, Florence, and Tuscany, perfectly mirroring the Italian inspiration of their wedding.

It seems wedding bells are ringing for more Dance Moms alums, as Brooke Hyland and Kalani Hilliker have also recently announced their engagements. The Dance Moms family is certainly celebrating love and new beginnings! Kamryn Beck’s wedding was a beautiful testament to love, family, and the beginning of a wonderful new chapter.
