Lucky me, to plan Zoe and Chris’ wedding at their home in Sagaponack. As co-owners of English Country Antiques in Bridgehampton, there were so many wonderful props and accessories which infused their personal touch into every aspect of their day. Thank goodness the rain held off. Admittedly, it was a bit humid during set up but a soft breeze cooled it down just in time for guests to arrive.
Below, a few photos taken with my iphone.
Don’t you just love the “Mr and Mrs” signs on the back of these vintage bicycles?
Custom Aprons and assorted champagne flutes on etched silver trays welcome guests.
Custom programs with paper fans in wooden chopping bowls and music petal cones were available on a “welcome” table.
Assorted benches, pews and chairs made the ceremony feel eclectic and intimate. Eucalyptus leaf garlands down the center aisle (a nod to Zoe’s Australian home) hung from vintage wooden fence posts. Ceremony structure was made from branches found in their garden.
Here’s Zoe, having her veil pinned.
