We want to share a little bit about the custom crest we had created for our wedding, since it is filled with symbols that represent meaningful parts of our lives and the journey that brought us here.
The California poppies and bear reflect where we both grew up.
The open book, taken from the Berkeley logo, represents our time at UC Berkeley, where we met and created so many memories. It also honors Garrett’s family legacy at Berkeley, which spans four generations!
To celebrate Molly’s Irish heritage, we included the traditional harp, clovers, and a Claddagh ring—a symbol of love and loyalty that also connects to Ashford Castle, where we’ll be celebrating together. You’ll also notice an Irish wolfhound, inspired by the beloved hounds at Ashford Castle. You may even get to meet them during your stay!
The daffodils were included in honor of both of our grandmothers, who each have a special connection to the flower.
One of the most meaningful elements is a pair of angel wings, included in memory of Molly’s brother, Charlie. His spirit is with us always.
At the heart of the crest is Ashford Castle itself, a place that now holds deep meaning for us and will soon be filled with memories shared with all of you who are joining us there to celebrate.
