Stefanie and Jan

Wednesday, January 16, 2013















 

















 Modern meets classic in this beautiful German celebration at the Weingut Janson Bernhard–this wedding has been an inspiration to me for years, and I thought it was high time to share it with you!

Guests received invitations by Mr. Boddington calligraphed in Betsy Dunlap's signature script that spoke to the day's sophistication and style, tied together with a lilac ribbon. Stefanie wore a gauzy Vera Wang gown and veil paired with Chloé sandals and an ornate pair of pearl and crystal earrings from J.Crew, and pinned a cluster of flowers by florist Blumen Tekath in her hair. Jan wore a slim cut Spencer Hart suit and shiny Prada shoes, a perfect compliment to his bride's modern style.

After a traditional ceremony accompanied by string quartet Rasa Zukauskaite, the newlyweds and their guests dined al fresco on a sumptuous feast by Deidesheimer Hof while bandoneonist Michael Dolak played traditional tangos. The couple set up a teepee from Tipi Vermietung for dancing, and the night ended with an unforgettable fireworks display–can you imagine anything more magical?
