Katie & Daniel’s Intimate Little Italy Wedding

January 31, 2018 · Leave a Comment

Katie & Daniel's Intimate Little Italy Wedding | Dreamery Events

Most wedding planners and industry professionals will tell you you shouldn’t work with loved ones or people you know. The reason, it naturally makes the job harder, there is more pressure on yourself to make sure the day is perfect. Well I believe the complete opposite, yes planning the wedding of someone you know is definitely high pressure but it is also such a big honor that someone in your life would select you to be a part of this special day and time in their lives…so of course I didn’t hesitate when the always darling Katie and vibrant Daniel reached out wanting a bit of help with their Little Italy wedding, I of course couldn’t be more excited…

I first met the groom a few weeks before my first day as a college student at Johnson & Wales in Rhode Island, both from New Jersey, both fans of a good dance floor  Then the always beautiful, Katie joined my sorority, and she was always one of the nicest and down to earth! As long as I have remembered Katie and Daniel, I remember how much fun they were together, and just how much they always seemed, and still are, in love!

Katie, a native Rhode Islander self proclaimed foodie, has called New York home for sometime, while Daniel’s cooking career has taken him through plenty of amazing restaurants in the city. This pair wanted to keep their special day intimate with a classic Catholic mass at their Brooklyn neighborhood church and dinner at Il Cortile, a family favorite and naturally a place with amazing food for this foodie loving duo.

Katie had a simple but romantic vision, focusing on natural greens like eucalyptus and rich red roses. She took your typical autumn color palette, and threw it out the window!! Katie chose to pair sophisticated navy blues with deep varying shades of reds. And it was just darlingest color scheme for a warm brisk late September day.

Katie’s dress was an absolute stunner. I wish I would’ve been able to see it in person, but Jeff captured some amazing shots of it below. But I can’t not mention Daniel and his handsome and sharp dark blue suit. But for both, their million watt smiles were what completed their looks to perfection!

The spacious but quaint and cozy restaurant has the loveliest open space fit with twinkling lights, glass ceiling windows, pretty plants and rustic details, that would make any wedding magical. Originally I thought this space was an outdoor courtyard, but was delightfully surprised by the charming intimate space, the perfect size for dancing to a live band and even separate bar lounge area. Oh, and this wedding may have been intimate in size, but it was surrounded by thousands passing by the heart of Little Italy, New York City. Oh, did I happen to mentioned this also a favorite restaurant of James Gandolfini, I mean their shrimp appetizer is so good!

When the space was so darling to begin with, other decor was kept minimal with plenty of rustic and simple candle light, and  photographs of this special couple’s relationship over the years. The bride’s father created all the place cards, the table number cards which were placed atop gold wine bottles and all the thank you tags for the miniature bottles of champagne each guest was gifted. How talented is he! The navy color was delicately played up on the tables with soft and pretty colored cheese cloth runners that draped over each.

I’ve never been one to connect with the color pu I’ve never been one to connect with the color purple much, & yes I believe everyone connects to colors in certain ways. And yet, Clematis are some of my favorite flowers🌿

For a brief few Spring days each year, the garden is a vision of purples....deep rich violets that almost look black, their sheen like velvet, delicate lavenders & pretty mauves that flutter in the breeze. Nature is a true delight for the soul🤍

They’re calling for a too hot, too soon kind of weekend, but we’ll be surrounded w. love celebrating a special wedding at a lovely location! Hope this weekend brings you moments of rest & joy, that allow you to look at all that is blooming🌱…
tiny joyous things🌿 ... I try not to lose sight tiny joyous things🌿 ... I try not to lose sight of the fact I get to create & "work" w. beautiful flowers; one of the things I love so much & one of the joyful parts of creating & sharing my work w. others. But this whole social media thing is weird right, the world is weird & broken right now -- as creatives seems like are new age question is "do I post this pretty picture when this is really happening right now?! but it's also kind of my job to put my work out there for others to see, right?!" ... but I’m learning, funny enough, by some inspiring women on this platform, it's ok to feel all these things while also sharing the joyous, cool & helpful things we are all working on, creating & hoping to bring into this world. Life is filled w. beautiful & sad moments, happiness, joy, grief, fear, doubt, love. All the tiny things🤍

& if anyone watched last night's This is Us, how beautiful was their telling of one's final moments, looking back at life. Ugh my heart😢
There’s one word to describe the first full even There’s one word to describe the first full event of the season…ethereal🤍

Event season is in full swing & it’s nice to finally step aside from planning to bring all the ideas, time & details to life!
“We are like {blossoms}; holding on, letting go, “We are like {blossoms}; holding on, letting go, rising & falling into our weathered souls…” - Angie Weiland-Crosby🌼

May is the start of a busy few months of events, so I’m going to make sure I prioritize Rest whenever I can. But also plenty of garden days, living & cherishing simple moments — because when the busy days will feel like a blur or the state of the world (big/small) only adds to the mental drain, I know these will be the things that keep me going🤍
