Alannah and Michael-Oceancliff

     When Alannah's mom reached out to me and was concerned about all that needed to be done for her daughter's wedding and both the bride and groom were physicians with no time, I jumped into action!! All of the details that they had remaining for the wedding, including putting together timelines and making sure everything was perfect for the day of, was accomplished in no time. I wanted the couple to be able to show up for their wedding and not worry about one detail, just enjoying the moment and celebrating with their families.  Which is exactly what they were able to do. A traditional Peruvian table was added to the reception, which was quite meaningful for the grooms's family. It was a beautiful day, rich in tradition and love.  Congratulation Alannah and Michael!

Alyssa and Kyle-The Graduate

     Alyssa and Kyle were college sweethearts from Providence College, where Kyle still works and had their ceremony at the chapel on campus. Which included pictures of the wedding party, with the Friars mascot! After a morning of some raindrops, the weather cleared for a beautiful ceremony and pictures on the grounds of the campus taken by my good friend Jennifer Neves from Jennifer Neves Photography.  After photos the couple headed to the Graduate to enjoy their cocktail hour with family and friends. 
     There were many personal touches by the couple, who had a great number of crafty friends that were able to make their dreams a reality! A gorgeous mirror painted for the ceremony and a fun donut display, that just about every guest enjoyed. This group was a huge dancing crowd and were on their feet until the end of the night. Such a fun wedding for a great couple! Congrats to Alyssa and Kyle!

Sarah and Justin-Newport Art Museum & The Lobster Bar

     Sarah and Justin, if I could summarize their wedding in one word it would be personalized. Sarah worked really hard to create a day that really reflected the two of them.  With having two completely different venues, one for the ceremony and one for the reception, really allowed guests to see the different sides of Newport. The Art Museum, is definitely a fun location, where guests could check out the art work prior to and after the ceremony. With all it's uniqueness, it presents a wonderful backdrop for photos. Having a friend as the officiant, they still included important pieces of their Greek heritage.
     What Sarah envisioned for her day and with the pieces that she purchased, we were able to create the Lobster Bar, into exactly what Sarah and Justin had hoped for. The best part was they had hired a Greek Band to play a short set as a surprise to all their family and friends.  Trying to get them set up and have them blend was a challenge for sure, but well worth it in the end seeing the joy on so many of their family and friends faces. Congratulations to Sarah and Justin!

Brian and Elizabeth, Aldrich Mansion

     Elizabeth and Brian chose the Aldrich mansion for both their ceremony and reception location.  The weather was absolutely beautiful for their wedding so they were able to use the beautiful grounds for the back drop of their photos taken by Jaclyn L Photography.  The gorgeous bouquets and stunning centerpieces were created by Blooming Blossoms. Their escort cards were the periodic table filled with candies to represent Brian's work and even had a copy of his book on hand for friends and family to look at.  The guests were able to enjoy the spectacular dessert room that Aldrich Mansion is famous for, The couple departed the wedding in style in a rolls royce as they said goodbye to their guests.

Emme & Tripp-Private Home Westport, MA

Emme & Tripp held their wedding at a private home that Emme's family had rented for years. Their wedding ended up being the hottest day of the entire year, with temp's over 100 degrees!!! Luckily, their wedding was right on the water, so the breeze helped out immensely. This could not have been a more perfect spot for their wedding. The landscape of the property provided an opportunity to have a private space for the ceremony, to a coastal cocktail hour and dinner/reception under the tent. Emme and Tripp had many close friends help out with flowers and catering and really gave it such a beautiful, personal touch.  It was a wonderful, HOT day, but a beautiful wedding. Congrats to Emme and Tripp!

Erin and Ben-Glen Manor House

     Glen Manor House is one of my absolute favorite venue to be at so I am always excited to work there. Erin and Ben were planning a long distance wedding from Arizona and I worked with them so they could come here the weekend of the wedding, enjoy their family and friends and not worry about anything. Erin shipped me as many items as she had prior to the wedding so that she did not have to worry about packing anything or bringing additional luggage with her. What I love most about the Glen, is that you can really make it your own. There are so many places you can personalize and Erin and Ben really loved candlelight. I think it is the most candles I have ever seen there but it gave the house a beautiful soft warm glow to it, it was absolutely gorgeous. The food was provided by Glorious Affairs and they did an outstanding job with all that was offered.  Blooming Blossoms was the florist and as always Pam and her team did an amazing job. Congratulations to Erin and Ben!

Omar and Fallon-Rosecliff

     Omar and Fallon truly were so fun to work with. Omar works for an airline and is training to be a pilot and they met... on a plane! They wanted that travel/plane theme to be incorporated into their wedding because it was so much of who they were.  In the span of the time of planning, they moved across the country and bought a new home! Their time to Rhode Island was very limited so we made the most of their short trips when they could be here. They chose Rosecliff as their venue, and wanted this gorgeous elegant red and gold wedding. Fallon was taken the ceremony by a horse and carriage and the groom sang a beautiful song, as his bride walked down the aisle.  Guests enjoyed food by Fine Catering by Russell Morin while they enjoyed the grounds of the mansion and watched the bride and groom depart by horse and carriage.  The gorgeous flowers were done by Flowerthyme and the music and uplighting was provided by our good friend Luke Renchan from LRE Entertainment. What an amazing day for an amazing couple.  Best wishes Omar and Fallon!
