We spent the weekend in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, celebrating a wedding. I met Stephanie while I worked at Paper Source in Georgetown. We first bonded while putting together hundreds of paper flowers for this massive project. And then we strengthened our bond over numerous half price wine happy hours. And then we made our boys bond over dinners and backyard BBQs. Steph and Steve made the trek out to Sacramento when we got married last April and when we moved, we knew we would be doing the same for them.

Stephanie and Steve, we love you guys so much and were so happy to be a part of your weekend. Steph, you killed it. It was a perfectly crafted wedding and I wish my photos did it justice. Congratulations and let's please plan the couples retreat.

    Oh my gosh – you were right around the corner from me!
    I live in the Berkshires, not too far from Stockbridge, which is such a beautiful town. Where was the wedding, and how did Steph and Steve end up getting married there?

    it was at the Lenox Club! we stayed at the Red Lion Inn. So pretty. I am pretty sure Steve has family there which is why they were married there.

    Love this post! The colors are gorgeous. I feel like I should start working at a paper store sometime soon. That way I can make awesome crafts and get invited to pretty weddings.

    I love the Red Lion Inn! They have a great little bar in the basement called the Lion’s Den where I’ve spent some cold winter nights listening to live music and drinking hot toddy’s with friends 🙂

    Looks lovely! Love all the bunting 🙂
    I’m curious – what are the delicious looking canapes on the glass dish? Is it watermelon with something in the middle?

    Hello! I just came across your blog and have enjoyed exploring a bit 🙂 I just read here that you worked at Paper Source? I did, too, until about a month ago! I was in the Bellevue Wa store. I saw the scalloped circle card (behind the grapefruit) and thought ‘that looks like PS’. Whatdya know? I guess we can spot that product from a mile away. Anyways…nice to meet you 🙂
