i feel you whisper
across the sea
They met across the seas…. finding each other in the most unexpected place. At a rowing club. They rowed, flirted, played, and traveled and finally Kenny asked the MOST important 4 words…. Jane could not refuse. She smiled and whispered… a yes. They married across the Atlantic ocean in February and now in Kentucky. Not a detail spared! Jane got to plan two weddings and second time around, she dreamed of a romantic feat with Kentucky (horse country) accents. With a new dress by couture bridal designer Stephanie Allin, she glowed and wowed her US family (and her groom!) and friends. Soft shades of lavender, blush and pale blue were accents throughout her day… from the pretty lavender ‘grecian-like’ bridesmaid’s gowns to the whimsical, mix matched table settings at her reception at Ashley Inn Bed and Breakfast. Pretties aside, the day started off unusually wet and mild for a SUMMER Kentucky wedding. She must have brought LONDON with her because it rained all day prior and on the wedding day! Luckily with a little prayer, the skies cleared for some glorious sunshine during the outdoor ceremony AND pictures!! Indeed a prosperous day!
At Ashley Inn, we chose the TARA room for Jane’s getting ready. It’s soft blues and posh details complimented everything Jane had in mind for her romantic day. The light was insanely beautiful and I could not have dreamed of a more perfect room to feel and look pretty in.
Jane and Kenny chose these unique handmade wedding rings by Ruth Tomlinson.
I adore these delicate necklaces the girls wore. Soft pearl and leaf design by Luxedeluxe at Etsy.
I couldn’t help but to explore a little at Ashley Inn. I found some old classics in their library, a perfect perch and accent for Jane and Kenny’s details.
Kenny is no slouch when it comes to dressing. Carefully chosen pieces by Ted baker and Duchamp were just the tip of the ice. His handmade, bespoke Buday shoes paired well with the GRAY suit he chose for this special occasion.
Yes, every (stylish) man should own a Ted Baker suit.
On the way down to meet Kenny for the ‘second’ time…
Light rain started but the day was still perfect…
Love! Macarons and cake? She read my mind. Delicious treat for my (ok, everyone’s) heart.
Their adventure. From London to Kentucky and beyond… What great stories they would tell!
KEEP
CALM
