A Wedding Palette Inspired by a Hampton Summer Sunset at Canoe Place

[section title=”The Planning”]
[field title=”Wedding Colors”]The color palette was inspired and based on a Hamptons Sunset in Summer.[/field]
[field title=”Design / Vibe / Vision”]

They wanted it to feel like the Hamptons in the summer, without any overt nautical vibes. The color palette was based on the sunset by the beach. The event began with the effortless feeling of being by the shore in the summer, and transitioned into romantic dinner party vibes. They didn’t want their reception to have a ballroom feel, so we added all the layers of fabric draping and rows and rows of candles and lamps to make it feel intimate and romantic. They wanted the dinner and dancing to feel cool, sexy, and fun. The dinner/dancing lighting and draping was probably the most important detail to the bride, Lexie, and we spent a lot of time creating something truly unique to that space.

[field title=”Food & Drink”]They made sure to have a raw bar and lobster rolls during the cocktail hour as a nod to the shore and their love for seafood. Casamigos is their liquor of choice, so for one signature cocktail they did a paloma. For the second, they did a refreshing cucumber elderflower spritz. [/field]
[field title=”Florals & Decor”]Flowers were very important to Lexie, and she wanted it to feel lush and bright for the ceremony and cocktail hour. They had a custom crest done which was used in their invitation and drink stir sticks. The petal bar at the ceremony was a mix of pastels florals in those sunset shades, and was a hit. Lexie loves feminine touches, and Love Shack Fancy is one of her favorite places to shop. You could find little touches of that aesthetic throughout – delicate wooden fans with silk pink bows on the ceremony chairs, custom napkins with a coupe tied with a bow, silk pink ribbons hanging from the ceremony chairs. The only nautical tie-in we did was to Canoe Place itself. Their seating chart featured hand lettering on hand painted canoe paddles. At the top they wrote “Canoe feel the love?” We used a vellum butterfly as a place card on each guest’s menu, as butterflies are special to Lexie and her mom.[/field]
[field title=”Wedding Cake”]The wedding cake was a beautiful white tiered cake with intricate details, nodding to Lexie’s love of feminine touches.[/field]

[field title=”Special Detail #1″]Lexie had a charm made for her bouquet that was in her grandmother’s handwriting. She surprised her mom with it while getting ready.
Connor’s brother, the best man, had a special fireman’s axe made for him to cut the cake, as Connor is a firefighter.[/field]
