Elizabeth Messina’s Wedding, IV
I have had so much fun sharing these gorgeous images from Elizabeth Messina’s wedding with all of you! I am completely in love with every detail of this wedding. Just goes to show that when you bring two forces, like Lisa at Oh How Charming and Elizabeth Messina together, the result is magic!
Here are a few more detail shots from Elizabeth’s wedding…
Lisa has been sweet enough to share some of the details with us…
“When Elizabeth shared the news of her engagement, I couldn’t wait to start planning the details of her wedding. Since we have worked together for so long and spent so much time together, I knew exactly what she’d like. She has such a beautiful old soul and she knew from the very beginning that the vintage chandeliers were going to be the focal point of the design. She had been collecting them (we had 30 of them!) for quite some time and diligently had each one of them re- wired so they would be in working order by the time of her wedding. Each chandelier was hand-picked by her and one of the most special elements of her wedding was that she gifted the chandeliers to her close family and friends after the wedding was over.

I am so in love with Elizabeth Messina’s recent wedding, I just have to share every photo that I have with you…

Lisa let me know that the bread featured above was actually flown in from France, made with Elizabeth and her husband’s name and the date of their wedding on it. Couture bread. I love that.

Although it seems that every detail of Elizabeth Messina’s wedding was executed to perfection, it’s the dining table that really blew me away…
Is that not the most beautiful table you have ever seen? Here is another shot, from the front…
Again, there really are no words. Lisa of Oh, How Charming! designed this stunning table, hanging thirty chandeliers (some new, some antique) among one long, wooden table. Unbelievable.
I have so many more photographs from Thayer Allyson Gowdy to share with you. And, Lisa at Oh, How Charming! is going to be filling us in on some of the other fun details!

Today’s post, well…it’s kind of a big deal. I have been trying to find the words to introduce the wedding that we are featuring today and I keep coming up blank. As many of you know, I am a HUGE fan of the brilliant photographer, Elizabeth Messina. Her work is always beautiful…from the perfect details that she shoots, to the raw and true emotion that she captures in every photo.
So, when Lisa at Oh How Charming sent me photos of Elizabeth’s own recent wedding, I knew that they would be among the most beautiful I’ve ever seen…
