Maddie and Dave kicked off their summer solstice wedding weekend a few weeks ago with a festive rehearsal dinner at the Innis Arden Golf Club in Greenwich CT.  Guests enjoyed cocktails and sushi outdoors then headed inside the club for dinner, being treated to a wonderful video of the many moments and experiences in Maddie and Dave’s lives, followed by touching toasts, funny roasts and a really nice poem by Dave’s mom.  A whole lot of love for this great couple–congrats Maddie and Dave!  Your wedding photos will be posted soon…stay tuned!  You can see many more of their rehearsal dinner photos here

Alex and Breck had a beautiful night at The Hill-Stead Museum in Farmington CT for their rehearsal dinner a few weeks ago despite the threat of rain all week!  Breck’s family brought a bit of the South to New England making for a warm, relaxed event between two families who were thrilled with their children’s choices in partners.  We always love hearing toasts and speeches about the couple from their family & friends–a real highlight of the night.  Congratulations Alex and Breck and thank you to Breck’s mom, Jane…it was such a pleasure meeting and working with you!

Turn of the (19th) century Watch Hill RI definitely recalls an unplugged time–just the spot to slow down and savor your wedding day with family and friends.  On a blue sky June Saturday, with Block Island and Montauk Point on the horizon, Hillary and Zane were married at the wooden-beamed Watch Hill Chapel.   A quick saunter across Bluff Road, and the guests kicked off the party at the beautiful Ocean House.  But first, Hillary and Zane and the bridal party stopped by Watch Hill’s Flying Horse Carousel and little downtown for some fun photos.

Guest enjoyed their special drink, the “Trustful Pirate”, along with the raw bar at the cocktail party on the porch, which featured a display for K.I.D.S., Kids in Distressed Situations that received a donation in place of wedding favors.  Onto the reception, where the speeches and letting loose began with the high-energy SoulSystem Orchestras.   And later, we all headed back to the porch for a blast of fireworks over the beach, and ended the night with a farewell to Hillary and Zane through a sea of sparklers.

Such a fun wedding!  It was a pleasure working with the amazing Nancy Goldstein from Amazing Celebrations!   And the flowers from Paula Gallo’s Pentimento Flowers looked great as always.

Congratulations Hillary and Zane and thanks so much for having us photograph your wedding!  To see many more photos please click here.
