A Jubilee Event: Christina & Doug, A Nautical Affair in Old Saybrook, CT

One of the happiest couples I know, Christina and Doug, were married this past summer on July 2^nd,where the weather was beyond perfect as they celebrated with their guests at the Old Saybrook Point Inn and Spa. What can be said about Christina, Doug, and their families? They had a wonderful amount of love between each other and could not wait for this wedding! Nothing in the world could have stood in the way of their bursting excitement, shown through every moment and every detail. The anticipation for this day was so contagious that no one could help but smile from ear to ear in their presence!

A big thank you goes out to the always lovely Jennie and team from Jennie Fresa Beauty Library as Christina and her girls looked stunning!! Wait until you see all of the flowers Yumiko and her team at Hana Floral Design created-breathtaking! How romantic is Christina’s bouquet?!

Big thanks to Derek Fowles Photography for capturing it all and Vantage Point Films for sending us this beautiful video!

Christina and Doug-thank you so much for having us as a part of such an extraordinary and special day! We wish you all the best and look forward to see you and your families again! XO

A Jubilee Event: Cameron + Josh’s Wedding at The Wadsworth Mansion, Middletown Connecticut

A beautiful summers afternoon was the setting at The Wadsworth Mansion in Middletown, Connecticut for Cameron and Josh’s classic wedding. Surrounded by 100 of their nearest and dearest, they exchanged heartfelt vows on the great lawn and danced the night away under a beautiful Sperry Tent.

Cameron and Josh chose simple shades of white, blush pink and charcoal. In their pursuit for wedding decor, they amassed an impressive collection of unique milk glass pieces that Elisabeth from BLUSH arranged peonies and large garden roses in. Gourmet Galley served up a delicious evening of vegetarian delights as guests dined on lasagna and pappardelle pasta. Yum!

Many thanks to the talented Charlotte Jenks Lewis, who made it nearly impossible to complete this blog post because I couldn’t pair down her images into a short list of favorites. Enjoy!

Destinations Inspiration Event Recap: Paris

{ champagne colored gown/bow: the cherry blossom girl; woman in front of metro sign: classic bride; laduree inspiration: design sponge; ballerina: dress, design & decor; vintage green couch: 100 layer cake; crystal bows: the cherry blossom girl }

Pardon our brief interlude. If you’ve missed the first three posts in our series recapping the destination event, visit {one} {two} {three}.

Remember when Audrey Hepburn said Paris is always a good idea? That’s where our third destination took us! To the land of lights, gorgeous architecture, a romantic strolls along the Seine river, the croissant, cafe creme, onion soup (yum!), and eggs for dinner and the famous french dames such as Marie Antoinette, Coco Chanel and Brigitte Bardot. We were inspired but a muted palette of pink, green, gold and ivory. I’ve been dying to do something inspired by the ballet, too.

We brought in color through linens, flowers, paper and the amazing food display by Lovely Lollies– which was bursting with delicate sweet miniatures and one gorgeous cake. Coral Pheasant designed a perfectly feminine paper story in blush pinks and gold, using lots of tulle embellishments (like the tulle puffs in the champagne glasses and tulle edges on the menu cards). Nichole also designed the beautiful Bon Appetit banner behind Lovely Lollies’ dessert station! I was so excited to feature some of the most gorgeous linens by La Tavola Linen– including the amazing blush rose linen we used for the back drop of the dessert station. It is absolutely gorgeous in person– so romantic and feminine! Our tablescape had several linens incorporated, including a celadon satin linen which reminds me of those dainty Ladurée boxes– along with a very textured and tulle like champagne colored linen from their 2010 collection. Tony and Cat from Datura: A Modern Garden adorned our venetian crystal candelabra with jubilant ribbons and orchids. They also created two charming bouquets– one bursting with feminine ranunculous and the other inside a mother-of-pearl seashell. I loved this option for a mother-of-the-occasion as it quickly transformed from something you carry down the aisle to a side arrangement on a nearby table.

The White Dress by the shore chose a prim tea-length gown with a full tulle skirt and lace details at the bodice. So perfect, no? She was paired with a handsome fellow in a classic tux, fitted ever-so-perfectly by our friends at Valentino Tailors.

We hope you enjoyed your brief stop in The City of Love! Up next, the country where Pura Vida reigns supreme.. Costa Rica!
