The décor around the estate created a warm and inviting atmosphere. A variety of candles were used throughout the house, including frosted and mercury votives, pillar candles with gold bases, and Audrey lanterns. Their wood arbor was draped in white with lush greenery and red and pink floral tones. Similar arrangements were used for centerpieces, mantle décor, and the front foyer.
Guests enjoyed hors d’oeuvres in the North Wing before returning to the Great Room and Conservatory for dinner and dancing. Some of their tasty menu selection included a seasonal fig and local ricotta platter, polenta square with braised short rib and poricini, and swordfish with curried carrot purée and frisée. To accompany cocktail hour, were their two signature drinks – a raspberry bellini and rum punch. Brooke and Derek finished off the night with a confetti cake, our famous chocolate chip cookies, and more dancing!
