There were tons of details that went into planning Michelle & John's affair. When Michelle and I first started planning her wedding day she told me "I LOVE RED!". So I went to work on executing Michelle's vision and carefully using red in summer. Michelle had a modern, chic taste, and wanted to balance that with the coastal elegance of Newport. Mother-of-the bride, Gloria, had a very traditional style that we wanted to incorporate as well. The result- the ultimate in class and sophistication...but most importantly joy!
