Rahel & Yitzi’s Wedding – The Details

Rahel’s mother, Terri had two weddings to plan in less than 2 years – first Shoshana‘s, and then Rahel‘s! Since everything went so well the first time, they ended up using a lot of the same vendors for both! It was fun to work with so many of these talented professionals yet again! Here are a few of my favorite details from the day…

Make-up by Christine Lewis

Hair by Kristen Garofalo

Flowers by Sarah’s Garden, who I’ve had the pleasure of working with more than any other florist!

Rahel’s dress was actually Shoshana’s dress as well! The talented Ana Hernandez did some beautiful work to turn it into something unique and special for Rahel!

The bridesmaids’ dresses were all custom-made by dressmakers all over the world – from Boston to Atlanta to Israel!

Elizabeth & Ryan’s Wedding – The DETAILS

Not only was Elizabeth & Ryan‘s wedding joyous and emotional, it was incredibly lovely as well! They got married at Elizabeth’s parents’ home in Marion, down on Buzzard’s Bay, and did a wonderful job making it a classy and beautiful event! They had 3 separate tents for the ceremony, dinner and reception and the flow of the day around the property created an air of anticipation and excitement. From the flowers, to the cake, and the setting – the whole thing came together perfectly. It’s amazing to me how the combination of little details can make such a big impact on the feel of an event…

The back of the house, where the ceremony was held.

Here’s a taste of some of the details in the house

The patio for cocktails and the view of the back yard

The dinner tent was set up over their pool. I’ve never seen that before, doesn’t it create such a cool ambiance?!

The tables were lavish and interesting, with big candelabras and antiqued vases of all shapes and sizes full of flowers lining the whole table. It was beautiful!

In these photos you can see the house, the ceremony tent, the cocktail patio, and the reception tent, and just barely the dinner tent in the back. It was so neat to have everything in one location, but they were able to give each piece of the day it’s own space with it’s own feel.

It’s so great to see all the planning and dreaming and designing come together and give a wedding such a wonderful feel!

Special thanks to:

Gregory’s in Wakefield, MA for the amazing flowers

Britt & Mike’s Cape Cod Wedding – Details

Britt spent so much time planning and working on the little details to make everything special for her and Mike’s wedding day, that I think they deserve a post all their own. Take a look at some of the fabulousness!

Her shoes were awesome – even though she went barefoot or in flip-flops more than half the day ;) Her rings are beautiful, and the dress was breathtaking!

Britt’s necklace was just the right amount of bling to top off the simplicity of the dress. And do you love the peonies in the bouquet, or what?!

This collage is a taste of all the lovely touches I spied while Britt was getting ready. The bridesmaids each chose a pair of hot pink shoes, while Britt’s were gold. The flowers were straight out of an english garden – kind of wild, but so beautiful you know it was planned. And the flip-flops that Britt spent hours and hours making for each of her girls! Buckets of goodies for the guests, not to mention champagne in a can, complete with straws!

One of my favorite details was the antique post-cards incorporated into the day. Britt found antique cards from towns all over the Cape and used them in the invitations as well as for place cards and table numbers. It gave the wedding a very cool feel!

I also really liked how she accented the pink flowers in the bouquets with blue hydrangeas for the rest of the day. It all just went together so nicely, and was so very Cape Cod!

Some of the vendors who made the whole thing possible…

Catering – Sumptuous Catering in Orleans, MA (Shannon Mahoney)

Flowers – Fancy Flowers (by Meredith Fancy)

Bride’s Dress – Nicole Miller (Britt’s Mom had a Nicole Miller dress too!)

Bridesmaids’ Dresses – J. Crew – they each picked whichever they wanted in navy

D.J. – Cape Cod DJs (Rob Cushing)

Cake – Cottage Street Bakery

Tent and lanterns – Undercover Tent Company

Britt did all the table numbers/menus/placecards/decor herself with help from her dad and bridesmaids! She did an amazing job planning this wedding! She put so much thought into each and every detail, and it really showed. Martha Stewart, eat your heart out!
