"My sister said, 'Oh, there's a venue that's really great right up the street,' " recalled Burrell. "So my sister and I went and looked at it, and I was like, 'Oh, this is it.'

So we booked it right then." 04 of 20 Kerri Lynne Photography Burrell got married with her best girlfriends by her side — including celebrity chef, Rachael Ray.

"I don't care about the cheese factor. Every time I mention the horse and carriage Stuart laughs a little bit," said Burrell, "and I'm like, 'Alright, whatever. It's my moment and I mean to have it.'" 06 of 20 Kerri Lynne Photography The Food Network star's dress was made by Carolina Herrera. "It was actually the first dress I tried on," she said.

"I was looking around at bridesmaids dresses and everything just sort of seemed shapeless, and pastels. And I'm like, 'That's not really my jam,'" she said. 11 of 20 Kerri Lynne Photography Claxton and his groomsmen wore orange Nike high-tops to coordinate with the dresses. "I wanted it to be fun, and have a sense of whimsy," Burrell said of the sneaker choice. 12 of 20 Kerri Lynne Photography The groom's accessories. 13 of 20 Kerri Lynne Photography Claxton's son Javier, 16, from a previous marriage, was his best man and gave a hilarious speech to kick off the night. 14 of 20 Kerri Lynne Photography "The abundance of harvest time" was the inspiration for the dinner setting. Each long table was decorated with vegetables, herbs, and colorful leaves. 15 of 20 Kerri Lynne Photography Burrell personally perfected the menu with the caterers over many months. The starter was a roasted cauliflower steak with cauliflower puree, crispy potato shoestrings with creme fraiche, and caviar. The pasta course was a goat cheese and pumpkin ravioli in a sage butter sauce, with frizzled brussels sprouts leaves, toasted pumpkin seeds, and pumpkin seed oil. For the entree, they chose a duo plate of braised short ribs with a celery root and parsnip puree, and herb and potato crusted halibut on a bed of spaghetti squash, with Tuscan kale and pistachio pesto. 16 of 20 Kerri Lynne Photography Wedding planner Megan Hiltbrand of MLH Events helped bring Burrell's fall "fairytale" vision to life. 17 of 20 Kerri Lynne Photography The couple's six-tier wedding cake was created by Cake Boss's Buddy Valastro. Half the tiers were zucchini cake and the other half were olive oil, lemon, and rosemary flavored. 18 of 20 Kerri Lynne Photography Following dinner, Burrell and Claxton started the party with their first dance to "On Top of the World" by Imagine Dragons. The pair had the dance choreographed and practiced for weeks so "we don't look like a couple of knuckleheads," laughed Burrell. 19 of 20 Kerri Lynne Photography Burrell and Claxton met on the dating app Bumble in 2018. "People ask me about it, and they're like, 'Oh, you give me hope,' " she said. "And I'm like, 'You've got to stick with it, and you've got to know what you want out of it, and persevere. It's not like, if you try one or two dates and you don't meet your prince charming. Oh, forget it. It's never going to happen. You've got to work at it a little bit.' " 20 of 20 Kerri Lynne Photography After what Burrell called "the happiest day of my life," the two headed back to their Brooklyn apartment in lieu of a honeymoon. "I'm very happy to just have some home time, and enjoy newlywed bliss at home for a little while," she said.
