Great Gatsby Inspired Wedding... Congratulations Katie and Ben

I first met Katie and Ben and her fabulous mother Jane over a year ago and we immediately hit it off on what was the start of a great collaboration of design and detail. The minute Katie said she wanted to incorporate yellow I knew we were going to become great friends.

I introduced you to the details of Katie's wedding a couple of months ago with the inspiration board of the Great Gatsby. For the design of the wedding we combined the romanticism and elegance of the Great Gatsby, flair and sophistication of French fashion and European style, and the modern elegance and whimsy of the Art Deco movement, all of which were sources of inspiration for the details of the wedding. And I must say it totally rocked! All of the vendors involved captured the vision we had created perfectly in the level of detail from the food, to the flowers no detail was missed.

Cheers.
I want you to know how very delighted we were with every detail of the wedding and reception. You are amazing. You made Katie's dream wedding a reality. You are grace under pressure and your work is exceptional. We could not be more pleased. - Jane (MOB)

Great Gatsby Inspiration... Katie and Ben

*Color Inspiration Board via 100 Layer Cake

Today I am so excited to share with you some of the details for one of my favorite couples, Katie and Ben, and their upcoming fall wedding. They are getting married in September at the Branford House Mansion, a gorgeous venue on the Connecticut shoreline. Guests will arrive for cocktail hour in the mansion then be escorted outside under the stars to a tent perched in the middle of the great lawn, surrounded by 180 degree views of the water. Katie loves the romanticism and elegance of the Great Gatsby, and the flair and sophistication of French fashion and European style, combined with the modern elegance and whimsy of the Art Deco movement, all of which have been sources of inspiration as we are starting to design this incredible affair.

Recently we started working with Erin from Lucky Luxe who captured the essence of this era perfectly in the design of the save the date. This postcard is the first taste of what is to come.
