The Couple: Meghan and Derek
The Wedding: 9.10.11 - South Ferry Church and Sunset Bungalow at Kinney Farm, Narragansett, Rhode Island
What three adjectives best describe your wedding? Authentic,
rustic-elegant, and laid-back.
What inspired your personal wedding style, and how did you incorporate
your style and personalities into your big day? As native Rhode
Islanders, it was important for us to keep it local, so all of our
vendors from the caterer to the band were from Rhode Island. Music plays
a huge role in our lives, so it was a central theme in our wedding.
Our close friends, Roisin and Bob, sang during the ceremony, an amazing
local DJ, Peter Dante, played reggae during the cocktail hour and
several members of our reception band, Wayz and Means, are dear friends
of ours.
Looking back, what are the moments, decisions or memories that you love
the most about your wedding? The best decision we made was not having a full
bridal party; we only had a maid of honor and best man, which kept it simple
and intimate. For me, Meghan, my best memory was when Derek
surprised me by taking the stage and performing with the band and
displaying a hand-written message to me on the back of his guitar. When
the night ended and nobody wanted to leave, we knew we had planned a
good party!
