A 1990s dress that went ivory on its own. Had to keep it that way.
Some champagne and a lot of smiles
Just my mother and me, walking in together.
Six o’clock, under the oaks, high tide in the river behind us.
Pure euphoria.
Cocktail hour on Leadenwah Creek was a dream.
Pennants flying over the tent on the front lawn.
Surcie turned my shell obsession into our invitation suite, with art by Lia Burke and script by Mary Ruth Tribble.
Stripes, rattan and paper lanterns. Our brief to Gathering Events was elegant yet breezy.
We wanted the outside and the inside of the tent to feel like a seamless transition.
I know there was music playing but not sure I registered a thing.
Packed with best friends and family in some amazing outfits.
Champagne and cake in the tent of our dreams set the night off right.
Wigs, masks, and exactly the right amount of weirdness.
Sparklers, petals, and a flat sprint to the car.
