Exceptional and experienced planning, design, and coordination for New England weddings.

05/09/2026

A tasting today turned into a memory tonight.

Sitting across from a couple planning their wedding at Smith Farm Gardens earlier this week brought me right back to A & N's wedding and honestly, I love these reminders of why I do this work.

The most remarkable alfresco dinner at golden hour, the bridesmaids in their gorgeous dresses, the incomparable landscaping at the venue, and one of the sweetest couples I ever worked with.

This is what a wedding feels like when nothing is forced and everything is intentional.

If you're dreaming of something that feels this unhurried, beautiful, and completely yours, I'd love to be part of it. A limited number of 2027 dates are still available. Find the link in my bio.

Thrilled by the news that Emily & Patrick's romantic celebration at Smith Farm Gardens has been featured on Inspired By This! From lush white florals and abundant candles set on specialty lace runners, to an iconic petal toss and a vintage-inspired cake, every detail felt like it was right out of a fairy tale.

If you're dreaming of a wedding that feels just as meaningful as it is beautiful, I'd love to help bring your vision to life! Select weekends are available in 2027.

Delamar Mystic has been an incredible addition to the southern New England wedding scene.

Set against stunning views of the Mystic River and directly adjacent to the iconic Mystic Seaport, the property was the perfect backdrop for E & S's late-summer celebration.

We leaned into a color palette designed to pop. Soft apricot, creams, and sage greens were intentionally layered to glow against the muted blues of the water and the hotel’s serene, neutral interiors. The final result was one of my favorite events of 2026.

As a planner, I review a lot of extraordinary wedding galleries.

But I rarely see a gallery where in nearly every photo, the bride is radiating joy the way Abby was. To be entrusted with a celebration so beautiful, and filled with so much love, was an incredible privilege 🖤

White, blue, and green is still tops for coastal New England weddings.

Forever obsessed with this palette… it’s giving effortless, it’s giving “summer at the shore,” it’s giving quiet luxury.

Trends come and go, but this one is going nowhere. Coastal grandma supremacy lives on ✨

Your tables don't just host dinner, they stage the mood.

Layers of linens, lush green and white florals, and abundant candlelight created an atmosphere that felt elevated, inviting, and perfectly fitting for the historic Aldrich Mansion.

Design should go beyond “pretty” and become a feeling for your guests. A decade from now, they might not remember the exquisite silver candelabras, but they will remember that it was the loveliest dinner table they've ever sat at.
