New Years Wedding As seen in Well Wed Magazine

A few years ago, we did a New Year’s wedding at Troutbeck in Amenia NY, near Millbrook. The groom was in the Military so they had to plan the wedding according to his time off. We jumped to the opportunity to do a winter wedding. What made it so fun was to use a little “Bling” in all the centerpieces and the Brides Bouquet and Mom’s Posy. The couple wanted lots of snow for the outside photos but this particular New years it must have been 60 degrees.


We alternated tall gold painted branches with red James Story Orchids and low arrangements in frosted cylinder glass with a mix of dark red Roses, red Orchids, dark red Amaryllis, gold painted twig balls, crystals, black feathers, black glittered Baby’s Breath, black feathers, and painted Holy. We had many gold painted branches behind the Sweetheart Table.

The Brides Bouquet had ivory/ pale pink Roses, ivory Stock, white Lilac, ivory Tulips, white mini Calla Lilies, ivory feathers, crystals, and white gold glittered Baby’s Breath.

The Maid of Honor had dark red Roses, dark Burgundy Calla Lilies, red Orchids, black feathers and black glittered Baby’s Breath.

All the Brides Maids had similar bouquets to the Maid of Honor but without the glitz.

For the Mom’s Posies, we used red Amaryllis, dark red Roses, red Orchids with gold Holy and gold sprayed leaves.

Steve designed the Fireplace Mantle with white Casablanca Lilies, ivory Roses, Ivory Feathers, gold twig balls, Pussy willow, garland, and two Wreaths.

As of now, I cannot find all the photos. I am hoping to find more from my old computer.
