Maine Summer Purple, Grey & Magenta Wedding

Quintessential New England charm is what attracted our dear clients Katherine & Ian to the Barn on Walnut Hill. We created a layout that allowed for guests to move about the property,  with cocktails on the lawn,  a white tent for dinner,  and dancing & dessert in the barn. We used our vintage tea service vessels and collection of milk glass for the summery flower arrangements and made custom grey graphic table runners to go on the tables.  The couple rode in a vintage Bentley from the ceremony and

Another Maine Seasons Events' Take on Maine Rustic Meets Wedding Glamour...

Alicia and Jamie who fell in love with Maine on just a weekend visit, chose to celebrate their wedding at The Barn on Walnut Hill, which provided just the rustic charm they were looking for.  The fun was really in adding glamour and sophistication to the rustic backdrop, while mixing feminine and masculine style elements.

Details included custom wool plaid table runners made in house,  to go over wooden farm tables, and a white lace runner over grey linens on the other half of the round tables.  Our collection of vintage silver mercury and milk glass provided vessels for the floral arrangements and candles.  The late October date in Maine gave us temperatures that required us to have the ceremony inside the barn. We draped muslin fabric in the interior of the barn ceiling which created a cozy feel. The dinner was held in a lovely tent, adorned with a fabric ceiling and crystal chandeliers.  There was a beautiful candle lighting ceremony where all of the guests lit a candle from the others' and in a matter of minutes the whole barn was aglow with the 150 candles of the entire group-beautiful.  

Please visit Style Me Pretty to see the lovely feature on this wedding there!

A big thank you to the talented team who helped us create this gorgeous event!

Maine Coast Nautical Wedding

Our dear clients, Sonya & Lucas have a great story of growing up in the small town of Falmouth, Maine, attending the same schools.  They both went their separate ways for college, each ending up in New York City afterward. They met again randomly at a concert that Sonya was attending and Lucas happened to be the drummer in the band that night. They ended up rekindling their friendship, falling in love and eventually getting engaged...

They decided to get married in Camden as a friend had spent her honeymoon there, suggesting that it would be a fabulous place for a wedding.  Shortly after getting engaged they made a visit to Camden, Maine and fell in love with the charm and location.  The design featured a nautical palette of navy blue, pale pink and metallic gold.  We covered the tables with oatmeal linens topped with  blue and white striped table runners.  We used our collection of vintage milk glass and gold mercury glass mini vases  for flower vessels.   To add sparkle and personal interest, we used gold mercury glass candle holders and custom framed,  nautical depth charts to name the tables places that were personally significant to the couple.

After an evening of dancing and fun, including a song in which Lucas played the drums with the band,  the couple was sent off to a romantic sparkler farewell.

Summer Wedding Glamour in an Antique Maine Barn

Our sweet couple, Jane and Dana, by way of London and Singapore chose Maine, the brides home state for their August nuptials. We glamorized the rustic barn setting with a palette of peach, sky blue, and accents of metallic gold, with graphic chevron and peach lace runners. Fun details included an airstream oyster truck and a champagne bar with ingredients to create your own cocktail.

Wait So Long...Brides Magazine Features Josh & Rick's Bar Harbor Wedding!

Some exciting news around the office: Brides Magazine chose our clients' wedding to be their first two grooms wedding to be featured, ever!  We planned and designed our dear clients Josh and Rick's wedding last July in Bar Harbor, and Brides featured their gorgeous and special day in their August 2012 issue.

It was a great experience to work with these two, who genuinely love each other so much, and took such care in each decision and design choice for their wedding celebration.

 We held the couple's dog Catalina in the church during the ceremony and as they were pronounced married, we handed the exuberant pup over and she led Josh and Rick back down the aisle, I love the joy on their faces here.

Congratulations Josh and Rick, upon your one year anniversary, it was a delight to help you become married, and here's to you for making history!

Many great wedding vendors helped us make this day a gorgeous reality:
