Videographer?

Clients always ask if they should get a videographer. My response is always yes! There are moments that the videographer can capture that a picture can not. Voices and emotions can be seen and heard. Here is a same day edit from one of our 2013 weddings done by Artistic Wedding Video.  This wedding will also be featured in the upcoming edition of Bliss magazine. Enjoy!

Erin and Jeff, Newport Hyatt

What a beautiful fall day at the Hyatt for Erin and Jeff's wedding. They were able to enjoy their ceremony outside and were able to take gorgeous pictures at the Elms in Newport.  The couple wanted to enjoy their cocktail hour and opted for the raw bar to satisfy Jeff's New Englands roots. Erin included so many personal touches including photos and display notes. They had a fabulous dinner and some wonderful desserts provided by Scrumptions, including a fun groom's cake.  The guests were on the dance floor most of the night with music provided by Music Mixers. Guests were treated to a late night snack of pizza and sliders. Congrats to Erin and Jeff!

Kate and Jay, Private Home

We are full swing into our busy season so our blogs have been a little delayed! We will start posting events back from April to catch up everyone. This past weekend we were honored to be a part of Kate and Jay's special day. What a wonderful couple, that so perfectly complimented each other. Kate and Jay's wedding was held at Kate's family home in Massachusetts. With a spectacular view and a unique spot this was the perfect wedding location. Kate and Jay kept the ceremony intimate with only inviting close family and friends to witness their nuptials, in the coziness of their barn. Sayles Livingston did an outstanding job decorating the barn with beautiful floral arrangements. Shortly after the ceremony, guests began to arrive via buses or drove and were greeted by the friendly staff of Valet Connection. Guests enjoyed a cocktail hour full of delicious hors d'oeuvres provided by Russell Morin Fine Catering. After cocktail hour the reception began in full swing in the main tent that was once again decorated by Sayles, also Exquisite Events, and rentals by Rentals Unlimited. After a fabulous dinner by Russell Morin Fine Catering, guests danced the night away to the Hip Hop Orchestra band. What a wonderful evening for a great couple! Congrats to you both!

Christy and Brad at Glen Manor

Christy and Brad were married at the First Presbyterian Church in Newport on Monday, April 22, 2013 with a reception following at the Glen Manor House.  The ladies got ready at the Newport Beach Hotel and Suites and had hair and makeup done by the wonderful Ali from Salon KG. After a gorgeous ceremony, the guests headed to the Glen Manor.  While the bridal party took pictures with Erica Mancini from Adeline and Grace Photography. They guests were greeted at the Glen with mojitos from the Blackstone Catering Staff and the music of a Japanese koto player. After cocktail hour, guests entered the ballroom decorated by Sayles Livingston Flowers.  Once the dinner was served, guests were invited to kick up their heels with the music of Nancy Paolino and the Black Tie Band. At the end of the night, guests were treated to hand make cookies made by the bride's mom and given with thanks and love.

Amanda and Joe, October 6, 2012 Newport Hyatt

On October 6^th, 2012, Amanda and Joe were married at Salve Regina University’s Our Lady of Mercy Chapel with their reception being held at the Newport Hyatt Hotel.  This wedding was many years in the making as Amanda and Joe first met when they were 11 years old and reconnected as adults!

            From beginning to end this wedding was elegant with many fall accents and details.  When guests first arrived at the hotel they were treated to Out of Town Boxes provided by New England Invitations with a Newport theme. The ceremony was intimate and heartfelt, with tears of joy from many! Bridesmaids wore chocolate brown dresses, that were stunning and their bouquets from Stoneblossom were exquisite.  After their ceremony, the bridal party hit the town on the trolley provided by Rockstar Limo to take pictures throughout Newport with their photographer Jennifer Neves.

      The reception was absolutely gorgeous and fit perfectly into the fall theme.  The centerpieces, created by Stoneblossom Florist, was a scape of gorgeous flowers that had branches that protruded out it in every direction.  On the end of these branches hung oil based votive that truly twinkled in the dim room.  The lines were a crinkled cloth in pistachio and were matched with walnut chiavari ballroom chairs. The table numbers were replaced with different venues in Newport, instead of table one the guests would be sitting at the Rosecliff or Newport Bridge table. 

            Keeping to the fall theme, each guest was given a miniature apple pies tied with a delicate chocolate brown ribbon as a favor provided by Scrumptions.  The women were also given pashminas for their shoulders on such a chilly night. 

            Aside from the beautiful fall theme, it’s safe to say that the main attraction at this wedding was the food.  Guests enjoyed a cocktail hour complete with a plethora of passed appetizers, a raw bar, and a soup station.  They then moved onto a four-course dinner, which included a salad, antipasto, entree, and of course, cake for dessert.  As the night drew on and guests danced they were offered what the couple came to a “late night snack.”  This late night snack included pizza and deli sandwiches. 

            From ceremony to reception this wedding was truly a romantic and tasty affair.  Amanda and Joey, thanks for letting us spend your special day with you!
