Ravishing Opulence at Belle Mer

This stunning wedding of Joanna and Mike was really something - outstanding in all detail!

The Bride was absolutely ravishing in her amazing gown. Here she is about to walk down the aisle....
Guests enjoyed fresh squeezed lemon and limeade as they gathered for the exchange of vows.

The ceremony area had a clean, sleek contemporary look, with hundreds of callas precisely arranged vertically in black ceramic vessels - with an even larger version up front by the Bride and Groom.

Glass hurricanes with floating candles capped each display - here seen with the Newport Bridge as the backdrop!

The inviting placecard table and Belle Mer's contempo fireplace in the cocktail area

It's all in the details... Party planner extraordinaire Donna Kim of The Perfect Details always does an incredible job making sure all of the elements from start to finish are just right.

The dining room was just magical! Stoneblossom's tall designs made a splash filled with Hawaiian dendrobium and graceful phaeleonopsis orchids on our Parisian vases.

Ethereal lighting from Ormonde Productions made the event world class.

We mixed high and low designs throughout the space.

The long head table was the main event for sure!


Simple, elegant napkin detail

Love these with the mini callas and twisted stems!

It doesn't get better than these elegant "moth" orchids in simple glass. Glama!!!
