My sister Julia & I were just so excited to be published again on our favorite wedding blog Style Me Pretty! We are proud members of their Little Black Book a selection of Style Me Pretty's hand picked vendors. Congratulations to Nicole & Ken our super cute couple!!
Nicole & Ken wanted a simple beautiful modern wedding. Nicole chose a flowing Rachel Zoe gown that caught the soft breezes and opted for natural flowing tresses. Her makeup & flawless fresh glow were done by Nikki Tan's an upscale sunless tanning salon owned by Nicole. This gorgeous couple wanted a super intimate wedding without the traditional bridesmaids and groomsmen. They chose The Stone House at Stirling Ridge for its mix of modern & rustic chic. Nicole designed the decor herself opting for iron tree sculpture centerpieces with just a few fresh orchids, candlelight and vintage glass bottles with the table numbers. Guests were greeted with personalize cork key chains and the signed in the 'guestbook' which were river rocks that people wrote personalized message to the bride & groom before placing them in a moss filled glass vase. Pashmina shawls were folded in a basket with a cute message reading 'cuddle up' for guests to keep warm in the evening breeze. It was simple, elegant and very personal.
With pure white snow blanketing the country we thought you could use a splash of color! Here is our first wedding of the season with Debbie & Ty. We were so thrilled to see such a loving & affectionate couple. Debbie got ready with her parents and her four children at the Hilton Hotel in Hasbrouk Heights. Expert party planner Julie Conley of Warren Country Events was on hand to help the day flow. Julie is a featured event planner for Whose Wedding is it Anyway? and her work has been seen on one of our other favorite shows Cake Boss! We were so excited to meet her!! For the wintry ceremony Debbie & Ty chose the First Congregational Church in Montclair with its beautiful architecture and stunning light. The party then moved on to The Stone House at Sterling Ridge which was a refreshing burst of purples and fuchsias with bright contrasting black & white graphic linens. One of our favorite bands Mike Kaplan's The Smokin Section layered out sultry horns & vocals for the party.
Congratulations to our beautiful 'old hollywood glamor' couple Beryl & Eric!! Their gorgeous wedding was published in the fall issue of Brides New Jersey!!

The reception took place at The Stone House At Sterling Ridge in Warren, New Jersey. Eunice A. Valerio created centerpieces with the warm whimsical feel the couple were looking for and the amber lighting made for wonderful dancing shots!
