From Hallways to Aisles: East Coast Classic

Written By Amanda

As any other girl might admit, I have an addiction to Sex and the City. I never get sick of watching it and when there’s a marathon on, you can count I’ll be on the couch a while. Do you remember this episode when the girls go to the Hamptons for Bobby and Bitzy’s wedding? I can only dream of hopping on the Jitney and stepping off into lush gardens and sparkling pools….where everything is bathed in the cool colors of luxury.

This week, I’m inspired by: the Atlantic, classic interior design, trimmed gardens, sprawling mansions, Tommy Hilfiger, New England architecture, lavish pools, clean linen, sea breezes, nautical stripes

Light and airy pink bridesmaids dresses keep with the cool colors while pairing nicely with a beach backdrop. For a more dramatic effect, add hanging chandeliers and elegant draping to your reception area. Peonies and anemones work wonderful for bouquets, but don’t forget to add some lambs ear to create some soft texture!

Since a wedding in the Hamptons usually means extravagance, keep it toned down and preppy with this mermaid style Vera Wang. I love the look Reese Witherspoon had at the Oscars a couple years ago – this pulled back, pumped-up pony is super chic and playful. And what’s more American classic than the original Tiffany setting?
