when allison and james, two recent Harvard Law School graduates, approached me about designing their wedding, they told me they wanted to showcase their passion for academia and literature while still keeping their wedding simple and approachable . . . they wanted it to be lovely but not pretentious. i had so much fun bringing their style and passion to life, and loved the structural items and textures we combined to produce this wedding. old brick walls, antique books stacked high, feather quill pens posted in ink wells, vintage sheet music, dripping candles, abundant flowers, shoots of green ivy and long rectangular banquet tables combine to create an old world library feel that was reminiscent of their studies at Harvard.
allison was such a remarkable bride; beautiful, calm collected, sweet, gracious, incredibly smart and well spoken, yet so warm hearted and focused on showing other people love. i was blessed to know her and to be part of their day.
