Melissa and Tom had a beautiful autumn wedding at one of our favorite venues, Bittersweet Farm, in Westport, MA. Each couple brings their own unique personality to this rustic locale and Melissa and Tom certainly made it their own. Beautiful signage was on display, perfect programs welcomed guests to the ceremony and proclamations of love dotted the tables, right down to the home brewed favors that were displayed at the end of the night. Seemingly effortless florals by Arranged Occasions were carried by the ladies and were placed in burlap and lace wrapped wine bottles. Melissa was a glamorous vision in her ruched Essence of Australia gown and sparkly heels. Tom greeted her in his sharp grey suit for their first look out on the lawn and the two could not stop smiling! The gorgeous weather lent for formal portraits on the grounds and even a bit into the woods. A ceremony surrounded by rich fall foliage preceded the indoor reception where guests enjoyed the fabulous food provided by Bittersweet. Dancing commenced with the mixing styles of Music on Wheels while all eyes were on the killer cupcakes made by The Artisan Bake Shop. (The M’s even had a taste!) A very touching moment was when a friend read a toast from Melissa’s brother who is currently serving our country overseas. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room but the overall feeling was one of joy. In a roomful of Toms Melissa clearly found hers and their love is one that will surely withstand the test of time. XO
