I was thrilled when Well Wed Magazine contacted me today about my work being featured in their New England issue. My clients, Jessica Tripodo and Ken Powers, shared their special day on Martha’s Vineyard and it was such a spectacular event. I loved working with Jessica on all her stationary, from save the dates to wedding invitations, as well as the event decor/paper goods. You can spot my menus and seating cards in the photos below, taken by the talented Lindsey Thorne.

How awesome is it that they are featured in Well Wed! I am so excited for them both. The wedding was truly a beautiful mix of rustic elements and nautical flair and I am sure everyone had the time of their lives. I am honored to be a part of it. You can view their spread in Well Wed Cape & Islands: Issue 10.

I will be sharing a post on this wedding soon!

Last November I designed a parent album for Ginny and Mark to give as a gift to their family. I was excited to take a peak into their special day and absolutely loved the location and decor choices. The venue was the Carondelet House in Los Angeles, which is truly a beautiful space. It was built in 1928 and holds an immense amount of rustic charm. And I must say, Ginny did a fantastic job at designing and planning the event. It was so romantic and elegant. And their cake was gorgeous! I wanted to share a few spreads of the album, featuring the overall decor. Enjoy!
