During one of my first calls with Emily, she expressed a deep appreciation for hiking and the outdoors. I knew then, we would capitalize on the natural landscape of Bretton Woods @omnimountwashington incorporating all the colorations of fall foliage to bring the “mountains in.” Layering different textures and prints, flooding the room with greenery and beautiful florals. Every intricate detail, thoughtfully curated to ensure an extension of the summit.

A heartfelt thanks to all event partners part of this beautiful day:

3,100 feet to the summit of Bretton Woods, Rosebro

3,100 feet to the summit of Bretton Woods, Rosebrook Lodge @omnimountwashington. When you consider the elements of any production, must consider not only inventory being brought in but also the method, time, logistics of delivery. Lots of moving pieces and our job is to make it happen.
Two-day load in while multitasking welcome festivities - eyes on it all. Gondola, freight trucks…all rentals and equipment coming up and set with intention!

Prior to sharing the beautiful images from Emily and Matt’s wedding weekend @omnimountwashington must acknowledge the countless hours of planning and tremendous effort by @jngeventconsulting @portlighting @peakeventservices @latavolalinen to ensuring the most breathtaking setting. I’ve always been grateful for my team @emma.bea.fennessy @_dianaaresco @mmariotti @jasevp and this weekend proved next level. As hospitality professionals, there is no task to great - whatever it takes, we are prepared to roll up our sleeves and get it done. In the midst of an extraordinarily demanding season full of challenges and shortages, we keep giving our all. I am so very proud. Please stay tuned for more on this spectacular day.

48 hours prior to Yelena and Ben’s wedding, we were notified the original linen selected was no longer available. Pause. Adjust. Redesign. Keeping within their original color story, we worked together via FaceTime as I pulled new pieces from the @peakeventservices showroom.
Thankful to the couple for their grace and flexibility toward embracing this new look - we were all quite pleased with the end result!

Married 5.16.2020. Celebrated 9.11.2021.

Yelena and Ben were the first KKWE couple to exchange vows in 2020 amongst immediate family. They taught me the beauty of having a small, intimate “I do” (with a party to later follow)! While navigating the many changes over the past two years together, we grew close. Watching Yelena and Ben renew their vows with family and friends was a gift. It meant so much to see two deserving people, who have waited so patiently finally have their day in the beautiful gardens of @elmbankevents !

Congratulations Yelena & Ben! May you always look at each other with glistening eyes.

Two plus years of planning together, one postponement, an intimate wedding at the grooms family home last summer followed by an unforgettable celebration for Mhoire and Nick this past weekend at The Crane Estate.

A party designed to commemorate their marriage amongst family and friends, altering some formalities yet preserving the sanctity of their vows exchanged last July. It was everything and more!

While Samantha & Cole opted to serve a variety of playful desserts including passed vanilla milkshakes & homemade oreo shooters and custom donut wall by @capers_catering, they also felt it important to preserve certain traditions! So cutting a small cake, designed as an extension to their overall aesthetic by @loveand.flour on a family heirloom cake stand was a must!

From my initial visit to @thegreenerynh while it was still under construction, I knew this venue would be special. And from my first call with Samantha & Cole, there was an instant connection and shared vision. I am deeply appreciative of their trust in offering such creative freedom.

The energy of this day was electric. Every event partner brought pure fire and had FUN! Sure the demands of our work in always thinking one step ahead is top priority — but this day was a solid reminder of community and the art of teamwork!

I am grateful to have met and spent time with the Hayes family while planning for their daughter, Justine and Dennis’ wedding in 2019. Their authenticity and warmth was felt immediately. During the planning process, when we discussed the idea of Justine having a “first look” with her Dad, she asked if we could add her brothers too. It was a moment I’ll never forget as the three of them rounded the corner with the biggest smiles seeing Justine in her wedding dress for the first time shouting, “Tina, my girl” followed by the biggest embrace!

Another few favorites from their day was watching Shelagh Hayes escorted by her sons down the aisle, so proud of the children she and her husband have raised. As a mother with two boys myself, this resonated hard. Jimmy adoring Kristen who was pregnant with Beau at the time, the playful banter between all five sibling…..the love and tight bond this family shares is undeniable and one to be admired.

Learning of Jimmy Hayes passing this week was crushing. I cannot fathom the pain nor express in words the heartbreak felt for their family. It’s an unfathomable loss. My hope along with others who have shared their sentiments on this platform is the Hayes will feel all our love, support and find just an inkling of peace knowing Jimmy’s memory will be eternal. My prayers and love are with Kristen, their sweet boys and the entire Hayes family.
