Hollen and Adam’s CT Shore Wedding on Martha Stewart Weddings!
Another snowstorm is on the way here in CT but just think…only 86 days until JUNE! And June of course is prime wedding season…and come June 16th our clients Hollen and Adam celebrate their 1st anniversary. Last week their Branford CT seaside wedding was featured on Martha Stewart Weddings along with a post on the Martha Stewart Brides Guide.
Hollen and Adam are true soul mates with a love of travel and adventure…at their wedding the tables were named for their favorite trip locations…and you can see their photos from their Greek honeymoon on the Martha Stewart Wedding site too…nice shots! A really nice couple, their wedding at Adam’s grandmother’s home overlooking Stony Creek harbor was meaningful and stylish…and lots of fun. As always, it was a pleasure working with Kristen and Lauren from Bellafare wedding planners and a great group of vendors including Sperry Tents, Buzz Media video, Blush Floral Design, The White Dress by the Shore, Jennie Fresa makeup and A Thyme to Cook.

CT Tented Backyard BBQ and Games: Alex’s 30th Birthday Party!
Let the games begin! It’s been mighty chilly this past few weeks in Connecticut…so we all could really use a dose of summer. Go ahead and crank up the heat and take a look at Alex’s fun Fairfield County birthday bash from last summer!
Wonderfully planned by Alex’s family and Elizabeth Allen, the party started in the yard with some serious competition in an assortment of games including the classic egg and water balloon toss and a hula hoop contest, accompanied by a raw bar from Nantucket’s Spanky’s Clam Shack and a great spread of charcuterie. The “piggy” theme was carried throughout, with team shirts and prizes…topped off by a hand-turned pig roast by Chef Jeremy Stanton’s Fire Roasted Catering. We’ll be blogging later in the week on these fab foodies based in the Berkshires.
The party shifted gears later in the evening for dinner under the Stamford Tent–beautifully decked out in bold orangey red by LMD Lewis Miller Design–including more games like pinball and basketball arcade…along with lots of dancing. A super summery birthday…thanks Alex and your family for having us photograph your party! To see lots more photos click here…and think spring!

Cranwell Berkshires Holiday Wedding: Darcie and Adam!
Mother nature came through with lots of snow for Darcie and Adam’s wonderfully wintry wedding in the Berkshires in Lenox MA on December 29th! A beautiful sight…you could imagine a giant snow globe surrounding the Cranwell Resort that night. There’s something about a wedding during the holidays–people are primed to celebrate, and the good cheer and romance really is heightened. That definitely applied to Darcie and Adam and their family and friends.
Their wedding featured a terrific supporting cast with Minister Jonathan Pierce–a super trouper who performed the beautiful ceremony while under the weather, and one the best bands we’ve seen–Kahootz. Superior showmanship, great singers and instrumentalists. And they featured a special act…Darcie’s dad who sang a little Billy Joel to spark up the crowd…nice! Loved the red bouquets and hydrangea floral arrangements from Carolyn Valenti’s Queen Anne’s Lace, and Darcie and Adam’s cake from A.W. Confections featured a classic wedding bride & groom cake topper from Darcie’s parents’ wedding cake.
Congratulations Darcie and Adam…a wonderful celebration–thanks for having us photograph it all! To see many more photos click here…
