Kathleen grew up near the Molly Pitcher Inn in Red Bank, so when it came time to choose a wedding venue, the decision was easy. The elegant waterfront hotel was the perfect all-in-one destination for their January 31, 2026 celebration. They couldn’t have planned what happened next: on their wedding day, the Navesink River froze solid, turning the view outside into something straight out of a storybook. With blue hydrangeas, a classic black-tie optional dress code, and the warmth of an inn that felt like home, Kathleen and William’s winter wedding was timeless and magical.
