Valentina and Bola’s daytime Barcelona wedding started under the midday sun and moved through the gardens with live music, a champagne tower, plenty of color, and 170 guests, including 80 who had traveled from around the world. Argentina, Nigeria, and the couple’s life in Spain all found their way into the day. Valentina’s brother officiated, her mother painted pieces used throughout the ceremony and reception, and their one-year-old son, Enzo Oyedunni, was there for it […]

Sicilian Summer Wedding at Villa Mon Repos With Mount Etna as the Backdrop
Alex and Jack’s wedding in Taormina came with aperitivo in the garden, Sicilian food stations, plenty of limoncello, and views stretching from Isola Bella to Mount Etna. Later, dinner gave way to something much less formal: hours of karaoke, with guests choosing their own songs and passing the microphone around well into the night. That mix was exactly what the couple had in mind for their Villa Mon Repos wedding. With friends and family traveling […]
Bird of Paradise Led The Tropical Floral Design in this Arcadia Events Tulum Destination Wedding
Bird of paradise, pink anthuriums, tropical greenery, and fruit brought color into a setting that Kylee and Benjamin otherwise left largely untouched. Stone structures divided Arcadia Events Tulum into different spaces for the ceremony and reception, while candles and string lights added soft lighting as evening arrived. The inspiration for the setting came from a trip Kylee and Benjamin took early in their relationship. A few months after they started dating, they traveled to Costa […]
At Garza Blanca Cancún, Black Tie and Beachfront Made the Perfect Wedding Combination
Jackie and JJ asked guests to pack tuxedos and colorful formalwear for a wedding weekend by the Caribbean, then filled the celebration with coral, peach, yellow, and pink flowers, sweeping white drapery, and plenty of reasons to stay on the dance floor. At Garza Blanca Cancún, their “Black Tie by the Beach” idea landed somewhere between a formal evening out and a very good vacation. The details that guests took home with them were just […]
This Snug Harbor Wedding Gave NYC Guests a Tuscan Garden Escape Without the Flight
Quinn and Jack wanted to get out of New York City without asking everyone they loved to actually leave it. They found their answer on Staten Island, where historic architecture and sprawling gardens gave their Snug Harbor wedding the breezy, old-world atmosphere they had been picturing, just 45 minutes from Midtown. They planned the celebration themselves, down to the invitations, programs, menus, and place cards. Guests arrived to champagne before a ceremony filled with cheering […]
This Monte Cardon Wedding in San Jose del Cabo Was the Coolest Desert Destination Party
Natalie and Will had two requirements when they started wedding planning: warm and fun. In practice, that became a private desert venue outside San Jose del Cabo, Bird of Paradise orange woven through the details, dinner that guests are still talking about, and a reception designed to get progressively louder as the night went on. Their Monte Cardon wedding moved through different corners of the property, from an outdoor ceremony surrounded by desert, mountains, […]
Italian Garden Meets Japanese Ikebana at This Summer Cape Town Vineyard Wedding
An Italian garden dinner and Japanese Ikebana don’t immediately sound like two halves of the same wedding mood board. For Michelle and Raymond, that was exactly the point. Their Cape Town vineyard wedding paired grapes, lemons, candlelight, and a long table on the lawn with orchids, pastel florals, fortune cookies, and Japanese-inspired arrangements. Even the ceremony and reception had completely different palettes. The couple met while working at Triggerfish Animation Studios. Neither was particularly looking […]
A Seattle Ferry Boat Wedding Where the Couple Surprised Guests With a Sea Kayak Getaway
There were guests dancing before dinner to a favorite local band, kayakers watching the ceremony from the water, and, just when everyone thought the evening had settled into a reception, the newlyweds climbed into sea kayaks in full wedding attire and paddled around the boat. That surprise alone would have made this ferry boat wedding memorable, but it was only one part of a weekend designed to introduce friends and family to the Seattle Whitaker […]
Custom Attire from Beginning to End in this Multicultural Oklahoma Wedding
Guests watched Marie disappear from the reception more than once that evening, each time returning in something entirely different. She started the day in a sculptural Mikado wedding gown, later changed into a beaded reception dress made for dancing, then into a Vietnamese áo dài before ending the night in a Korean hanbok alongside Joseph. Every outfit had been custom made, and every change marked another part of the celebration. That thread carried through the […]
Lace, Earth Tones, and Effortless Elegance in this Casa San Jose Destination Wedding
Family linens, everyday napkins, and the couple’s own cake knife all found their place at Casa San Jose. Rather than filling the tables with objects chosen just for one day, Logan and Tom surrounded their 50 guests with pieces that already belonged to their lives, giving the weekend a character that couldn’t have been replicated with rentals alone. The Dallas couple met at a mutual friend’s party in New York. When it came time to […]
