We love the summer over here at dGE - beach, summer beach weddings, BBQ's and Dark + Stormy's are only a few reasons to love the heat! But with this recent humidity, we find ourselves in our air-conditioned studio dreaming about fall and our upcoming fall weddings! We have some amazing couples coming up in our fall roster at some killer venues! But in the meantime, what better TBT wedding than that of Quynh + Brendan's fall wedding at Waveny House in New Canaan, CT on October 8, 2011.

Quynh was and is one of my most fun and bubbly brides to have the pleasure of working with to date! Not only did we have a blast together planning her and Brendan's wedding but there were also a few drinks and McDonald's lunches squeezed in between meetings and consults! Those chicken nuggets are just BOMB and I can't even blame their adorable daughter Olivia on the choice of restaurant!

This wedding was the epitome of fall, with toasted leaves, apples, pears and pumpkins as decor, candied apples for favors (delish!) and Quynh's favorite color of eggplant thrown in the mix! Such a fun wedding, such a PHENOM couple and amazing photos by Scanlan Photography. Check it!

Quynh + Brendan, thank you so much for having us be a part of your love story! Your family is amazing and we wish you all the love in the world!

All our love!

When Shan and J-Mo came to me to plan their wedding, my answer was of course, WORD! We had all been friends since high school and it was more than an honor to be asked to be their Wedding Planner ... and a lot of pressure, EEEK! All those people from high school? This needed to be flawless!

We couldn't have asked for a better day for their wedding on June 23, 2012. As their families and friends gathered at Trinity Episcopal Church in Southport, CT (where we all gathered years ago, before Junior Prom to get on the shuttle buses - no drinking of course!) it was like a reunion to see all the familiar faces! What a supah fun day watching two high school friends get hitched and getting to celebrate with a room full of old homies. Not to mention Shannon killed it in her dress from The Plumed Serpent Bridal! Dang guuuurl!
