An elegant, vintage-inspired winter wedding in Newport, Rhode Island.

When interviewed the bride said “I want the theme to feel like Queen Victoria goes to the Alps.” We wanted a castle-like venue with a moodier color palette. A towering wedding cake was another must-have! In addition to the vintage feel, she also wanted a menu that reflected the couple’s love of travel. On their wedding invitations, guests chose whether they wanted to dine in France, Italy or Seattle (the couple’s hometown). The entrees that correlated with each location were dishes reflective of that style cuisine. An upbeat reception with a killer after party was also on the wish list. As a surprise to all of her guests, the bride brought in Saved by the 90’s to keep the party going after the reception ended. Guests moved from the ballroom to the Safari Room and kept the fun going all evening.
