EMILY & KELLY

Nestled in a private woods clearing on a family estate in Lambertville, NJ, Kelly and Emily’s wedding was a stunning display of "rustic-luxury" with a heart. Under a canopy of trees, the couple exchanged vows in a ceremony that honored family traditions—complete with "Flower Grandmas," a handfasting ritual, and a sentimental blessing of the hands.

The transition from the woods to the lawn was marked by signature "Grab & Go" cocktails and the whimsical magic of a strolling magician. As the night moved into the tent, guests were treated to a blackberry brandy toast and a choreographed first dance that lit up the room. From the "Memory Lane" posters to the late-night donut and ice cream trucks, every detail was a reflection of Kelly and Emily’s playful, intentional spirits.
