Best Wedding Video Ever



I am not usually a fan of wedding videos, as the end result is usually less than stellar. However when my friend Jenn sent her wedding video from her Napa nuptials I died! She was nice enough to share it on the blog. Enjoy! And a shot out to STILL MOTION for doing such a phenomenal job!

By The Beach


Last weekend I was on Martha's Vineyard with friends for the Chilmark Road Race and fun in the sun. While I still prefer the Cape, a weekend in Chilmark was a close second!  Here is some beach inspiration that had me thinking about entertaining on the Vineyard...soak in the last weeks of summer!

Party Details: Whitney and Andrew


A wedding we did in Point of Woods on Fire Island was recently featured on STYLE ME PRETTY.  Whitney has been going to this charming ocean front community since she was little and it was the perfect spot for a wedding with East Coast charm! The photography was done by Seattle based SARAH RHOADS.


Flowers were done by the fantastically talented Bobo Clark.  



Point of Woods does not allow cars, so guests arrived by bike or on foot. 




Since the wedding was overlooking the beach, we used galvanized metal trays filled with sand for place cards.



Whitney is a designer and did the invitations herself. Love. Go HERE to visit her site.



The bride wanted modern metal table numbers so I sourced these online.


Other fun details










Congratulations!
