Weekending & Weddings


Happy Monday friends! I hope wherever you live was as beautiful weather wise as it was here in Boston this past weekend! I think I may have uttered these exact words at least 10 times this weekend- “is this really October weather!?” I walked the equivalent of a marathon between Saturday & Sunday – which is basically a successful weekend in my book!

Saturday Jackie & I headed to our final wedding of 2017 and it was absolutely beautiful taking place at Brae Burn Country Club

The couple decided to forgo the traditional guest book and instead had guests sign a beautiful bottle of champagne!

There were plenty of DIY touches from the adorned menu cards to the hand placed labels on the mini champagne favors – everything was done with love and attention to detail! The florals were absolutely gorgeous and created by Jeri Solomon & the cake was done by Cakes to Remember – a specialty bakery in Boston! One of my favorite focal points was the place card table! The bride saw a photo on pinterest and I’m so happy Jackie & I were able to help bring that vision to life! It was the perfect wedding to cap off a very successful 2017 wedding season for us!! 


This weekend was also the Head of the Charles Regatta & the first time since living in Boston that I have been able to go!! It was the most beautiful day & even though I had zero clue what was happening we really enjoyed being outside and seeing everyone race on the river!

We made our way to Beacon Hill to eat at one of our favorite restaurants – Figs! It had been closed for nearly a year due to a kitchen fire, but they finally reopened & are just as good as they were before. Whenever we have friends or family visiting we like to take them here because the food is just amazing – my favorite dish is the asparagus frito!! We always split the pizza with two choices – this time a red sox for Gary & quatro formaggio for me! 


Strolling through the park & having a little bit of a lazy Sunday was exactly what we needed before we kicked this week off! My evening was spent catching up on blog work & packing for Iceland!! We leave soon & I’m definitely beyond excited!! How was your weekend? Link up below to share it with us!

    You and Jackie did a marvelous job with the wedding! The details look so beautiful and very personal and polished; I love the idea of the personalized seating cards on the champagne! Will you both offer other party planning in the future or will you be sticking to weddings only? You both are so talented! Eddie recently landed a new job that will require him to travel periodically and I'm hoping he'll have to go to Boston, so I can tag along and meet you! I'd love to go to Figs πŸ™‚ Thanks for sharing, beauty, and I hope you're having a great start to your week so far!

    You really outdid yourself on the wedding last weekend. I think I say that every time you plan a wedding… but the flowers for this one (and the champagne toast table) were unbelievably gorgeous!!!
