Your wedding morning sets the tone for the entire day - and at St. James 1868, it begins like no other 👑

In the Duchess Suite, natural light pours over antique details as you and your ladies-in-waiting sip champagne and share those once-in-a-lifetime moments.

In the Duke Suite, rich leather, warm wood, and perfectly poured drinks create a space fit for kings — the kind of place where the groom and his court can relax, laugh, and get camera-ready.

These aren’t just rooms… they’re your private royal quarters, designed to make you feel like the main event from the very first moment.

The design? Ralph Lauren meets Wimbledon. Navy linens, tailored florals, classic porcelain details—it’s all about refined charm with a touch of fall warmth.

A few coveted 2026 Saturday dates are still available in our Hyde venue this fall—and trust us, they won’t last long.

Bold. Romantic. Unforgettable. ✨
Our St. James Royal Showcase was a masterclass in layered elegance—with every detail designed to inspire. This design was all about contrast—structured yet soft, bold yet refined—and proof that daring color and thoughtful styling can turn a celebration into an experience.

- A striking black and white T-shaped dance floor created a dramatic runway through the Abbey
- Apple green linens brought a fresh, unexpected contrast to each table
- Dozens of candelabras and candlesticks bathed the space in a soft, flickering glow
- Vintage china and flatware were artfully layered for depth and charm
- Mauve-toned roses added a touch of softness and romance throughout

A heartfelt thank you to the incredibly talented vendor team who brought this design to life and helped inspire so many of our future couples. Your creativity continues to amaze us!

Design Tip for Brides-to-Be ✨
Linens do more than cover tables—they set the tone for your entire reception. By alternating blue and white linens, visual interest, depth, and a sense of movement was added throughout the space.

This simple detail can elevate even the most classic layout, creating a cohesive look that feels intentional, elegant, and fresh. For this floor plan our bride chose to use our kings table as her head table to make it a focal point. The warmth of the wood added dimension ....and fun fact our kings tables were repurposed out of our church pews!

Never underestimate the power of color and texture in your wedding design. 💙🤍
