An enchanted forest inside the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium 🌿✨

The room is stately and formal, which made a garden feel even more unexpected. Greenery spread across the tables, candlelight kept everything warm and low, and lush organic florals were layered with elegant touches throughout. My fave! Even the stationery and place settings got the forest notes.

I love transforming a space until it’s almost unrecognizable. Immersive design was the goal, and this one was so immersive we forgot we were standing in an auditorium in DC.

Jeff’s grandparents built this place by hand. Bare land, a barbed wire fence, and an idea about somewhere the family could keep coming back to. Deb and Jeff got married here in May, and the farm played its role as the foundational character it’s been for decades.

Six minutes, the whole film. Turn your phone sideways.

Jamie + Alex Celebration where culture, color, and thoughtful design came together beautifully. ✨

For this Chinese and Jewish wedding at the iconic Boston Public Library, we embraced a palette that felt joyful, sophisticated, and unapologetically vibrant—layering sage green, chartreuse, coral, red, orange, and blue throughout the celebration.

Custom illustrations became a defining element of the stationery suite, transforming each paper detail into something personal and artful. From the color story to the illustrated details, every element was intentionally designed to feel cohesive, elevated, and reflective of a celebration rich in culture and personality.
