From the Bride… It was the summer before we got engaged. Jon and I took a weekend trip to the North Fork, where we stopped at a winery called Bedell Cellars. We were immediately blown away by its beauty. Sitting on the deck–which, incidentally, would become the site of our first dance two years later–and enjoying a glass of wine, we took in the gorgeous views of the vineyard–and knew this was where we would be married. And within days of getting engaged, we booked the venue. What we loved most about having a wedding at Bedell was the fact that we didn’t need to do much, because the venue spoke for itself. We chose a muted color palette to let the natural colors of the vineyard and the gardens shine. We included pops of pink peonies and garden roses (thanks to Karen Lenahan Designs) to add some color, and hung string lights throughout the pavilion and tent, but that was about the extent of it; we kept everything else simple.
Riva at Bedell, Daria of Daria Culver Events and Leslie at Marcey Brownstein Catering and Events made planning my wedding a pleasure rather than a stressor; they are all incredible people to work with. The only thing we actually needed to worry about about was the weather on the big day. On the morning of, we woke up to the sun shining, and knew everything was going to be absolutely perfect. Jon and I had the best time getting ready with our parents and bridal party, and our first look was picture-perfect (thanks to Lindsay Madden Photography). Nothing could have been better–seeing all our loved ones in one beautiful place; feasting on fantastic food, wine, and cocktails; enjoying the stunning sunset, followed by an epic dance party (thanks to the Joel Young Band)- our wedding was, beyond a doubt, the best day of our lives.
