Shala and Jonathan chose the chic (and aptly named) Belle Mer in Newport for their seaside wedding in August. Shala and Jonathan’s beach-inspired details, in shades of white and cream, complemented the venue perfectly.

The Fruitlands Museum in Harvard, MA is a gorgeous natural setting, set high atop a hill, surrounded by fields and rolling mountains in the distance. On a flawless summer evening, Jaclyn and Runar’s wedding brought together families from both sides of the ocean, the U.S. and Norway. Runar’s Norwegian relatives delivered their toasts in excellent English, and Jaclyn’s sister even attempted a bit of Norwegian during hers!

My favorite holiday (Bastille Day!) was clear, cool and beautiful, and provided the perfect evening for Oni & Michael’s cozy, elegant celebration at their home. Their chic details were beautifully coordinated by Kori Elizabeth Events, and Capers Catering created the colorful and delicious menu — the cocktail hour featured “mini” appetizers: tiny lobster rolls, diminutive cheeseburgers, and little takeout boxes with Asian noodles.

Kelly and Tim love the outdoors, so they named their tables after favorite hiking trails. Each table had a handmade wooden cutting board inscribed with the table name, and there were beautiful earthy details in the floral centerpieces as well — I especially loved the artichokes! Their favors were little burlap bags filled with trail mix.

My favorite detail of all was the name of Kelly & Tim’s own sweetheart table: “The Long Trail”.
