A Jubilee Event: Teddy’s Modern Bar Mitzvah

I’m so excited to share with you today the fun and colorful Bar Mitzvah of Teddy! We had the pleasure of working with Teddy and his all-star planning team at Kathy O’Boyle Events to design a fun party to celebrate with his family and friends. We started off with a nautical and masculine seersucker pattern and incorporated pops of orange, navy, and green to create his cool party. Ryan Designs not only made custom orange chandeliers for our ceremony tent, draped in clean white fabric.. but they also created custom seersucker fabric-wrapped lamp shade pendants for our dining tent which hung above our tables. We used a seersucker linen on the long and round tables, accentuated by brightly colored floral from BLUSH Floral Design which included unique textures like grass, ranunculous, and orange protea. The fun paper, designed by Coral Pheasant, included these elements along with a custom monogram for the navy hoodies that Teddy gave away to his guests. I absolutely love the design that Nichole came up with, which was part colleagette and included some of Teddy’s favorite activities: lacrosse, boating and music. Chris at Culinary Concerts took our color story and incorporated it into the food, serving delicious orange drinks on the table with family style bits when guests first sat down.

During dinner, we transformed the ceremony tent into an fun lounge, complete with a white dance floor, semi-circular white resin smoothie bar, and sleek white couches with orange ottomans from Taylor Creative Inc. Culinary Concerts also designed a dessert bar round our style, creating white and blue seersucker cookies with shots of milk and Teddy’s favorite brownies. A huge thank you to Tricia Bohan photography for these images!

Thanks to Teddy and his wonderful family for the creative outlet– and congratulations!!

A Jubilee Event: Leigh + Kelsey at Belle Mer in Newport, Rhode Island

Leigh and Kelsey were married on a gorgeous and warm Monday afternoon in June at Belle Mer in Newport, Rhode Island. Not even a trip to the hospital on wedding day (fear not– everything ended up being okay!) could deter these two from celebrating their love for one another. They were surrounded by an incredible group of close family and friends and shared an intimate afternoon of laughs, love, and celebration! Leigh and Kelsey spent dozens of hours crafting their wedding, which was filled with personal paper touches. It was an eclectic mix of vibrant colors against a clean, modern backdrop. A huge thank you to the incomparable Carla Ten Eyck and her team for these stunning images!

A Wedding Story: Melissa & Pete at L’escale at the Delamar Hotel, Greenwich Connecticut

Melissa and Peter were married on a chilly November evening in Greenwich on the harbor, with a beautiful vintage / deco wedding style with some modern elements. In a color story of crisp white, blue, and silver– they warmed up their palette with shades of amber and orange.

Their ceremony was held in a local church with 200 of their closest family and friends. Melissa wore a stunning Claire Pettibone dress with a gorgeous lace back. Her bridesmaids were beautiful in state blue j.crew dresses and jewels. Datura: A Modern Garden created a stunning bridal bouquet, choosing white paphiopedilum orchids which were so fresh and perfect, accented with only a single green trick dianthus at the center and a few spirals of grass at the base. The bouquet was wrapped with fabric from her mom’s wedding gown. For her maids, Datura chose bronze cymbidium stems with uluhe fern shoots and grass.

The altar was dressed with two massive 14′ tall fall foliage trees at their autumn peak with Moroccan lanterns strung from the branches. The aisles were lined with fresh autumn leaves and accented with over sized lanterns and nearly 200 candles, designed by Datura.

Melissa and Peter’s reception was held at L’escale, a world famous restaurant in downtown Greenwich with the most delicious french food! They took over the entire restaurant, where guests dined in a room filled with thousands of candles and gorgeous long and round tables with two centerpiece designs: a white orchid and candle component composition in slender stemware along with gathering vases with an art-deco style branch centerpiece strung with white vanda orchids and votives in blown glass globes. For their sweetheart table, Datura designed a custom branch cascade with willow and orchids.

We used a mixture of gorgeous La Tavola Linen in the Andalusian in Silver and Nonius in Silver accented with a deep grey pintuck. Their napkins were Dupionique Iridescence in New Moon were folded horizontally across silver beaded chargers with a deco designed circular menu card.

They had an incredible lounge that guests enjoyed toward the end of the evening! L’escale’s long banquets were lined with silk pillows in varying shades of silver and blue, silver pewter chiavari chairs, and mirrored coffee tables. We created unique lounge vignettes with white leather tuffeted ottomans and mirrored coffee tables, along with a velvet tuffeted couch. Datura created varying centerpieces in square mirrored vases and round glass bowls. We lined the patio with hightops in the Nonius Silver and draped the edges of the patio with fabric and uplighting.

Guests danced the evening away to a sick band from Vali Entertainment and a photobooth by Carla Ten Eyck Photography! Check out the gorgeous images below by Katie Slater and after your finished, head over to Vantage Point Films to check out their highlight reel!

Melissa– Pete– thank you SO much for letting me be part of your wedding day. I miss our daily emails and planning pow-wows. I am so happy for you both and wish you all the very best things that life has to offer. XOXOXO!
