There’s a certain kind of magic only winter can bring.

If your dream wedding is warm, cozy, and a little magical, we think winter might be your season.

Just interrupting your scrolling for a moment to appreciate this GORGEOUS bouquet. 🌸⁠
⁠
The color. The texture. The trailing greenery. The ribbons. Those deep, moody tones mixed with all that soft pink.⁠
⁠
That’s it. ⁠
⁠
Please carry on.

I really do try to keep the flatlays simple.⁠
⁠
I tell myself: Less is more.⁠
⁠
Unfortunately, I am a more is more girl. 😂⁠
⁠
And my beloved Kate Preftakes knows this about me. In fact, I might go so far as to say she suffers from the same disease.⁠
⁠
So we start simple…⁠
⁠
…and then one more detail.⁠
⁠
And maybe one more.⁠
⁠
Okay, just one more.⁠
⁠
And somehow, here we are. ✨⁠
⁠
Minimalism was never really our thing.

Runner cakes are making their mark on 2026 weddings! They are large and in charge; what do we think of this 5ft long wedding cake? 💍

Hi, I’m Sorrell.⁠
⁠
Wedding planner, mother of nine (yes, nine 😂), grandmother to four, and currently owned by one very large and very loved Bernese Mountain Dog.⁠
⁠
After 35 years in New Hampshire, we recently packed up and moved to Lenox, Massachusetts — a new chapter that I’m pretty excited about.⁠
⁠
I love tennis, cashmere and flip-flops. Preferably all three at the same time, although New England doesn’t always cooperate.⁠
⁠
I also really, really love weddings.⁠
⁠
I love the details. I love the logistics. I love beautiful things. I love bringing together a group of talented vendors and watching months of decisions become one incredible weekend.⁠
⁠
And after raising nine children, there isn’t a whole lot of chaos that scares me. 😉⁠
⁠
I believe my couples should have someone firmly in their corner — someone paying attention, asking the questions, anticipating what’s next, and dealing with the things they never even need to know happened.⁠
⁠
I take that responsibility very seriously.⁠
⁠
If you’re planning a wedding, I’d love to hear about it — and talk about how we can help. Most of our services and packages are outlined on our website, but no two weddings are exactly alike, so we’re always happy to create something more customized when it makes sense.⁠
⁠
Planning a wedding? Reach out. I’d love to meet you.

Last-minute adjustments, a million moving pieces, and the Baraat about to kick off outside.⁠
⁠
Wedding days aren’t always picture-perfect behind the scenes — sometimes they’re organized chaos. And somehow, it all comes together right when it needs to.⁠

5 things we won’t do as your venue + caterer:

1. Disappear after you sign the contract.
 We’re here from “let’s do this” to “last call”—with communication, guidance, and support along the way.

2. Make the vegetarian meal an afterthought.
 Every guest deserves a meal they’re excited to eat, regardless of what’s on their plate.

3. Let the bar run dry.
 We’ll keep an eye on the details so you can keep your eye on the dance floor.

4. Turn down the party.
 When the energy is high, we’re not here to kill the vibe. We’re here to keep things moving.

5. Make your event feel like every other.
 Your celebration should feel like you—personal, memorable, and anything but cookie-cutter.
