A jewelry-designing-epitome-of-grace bride, a James Beard award winning chef and a Sperry Tent set up at the school where generations of women in the family attended = a recipe for THE MOST PERFECT WEDDING EVER!   And it didn’t hurt that I seriously want to be BFF with the MOB 🙂

Months later, we could not be more thrilled that Gabe + Ed’s wedding was featured on BRIDES!

Gabe has made a splash with her namesake company, Gabrielle Jewelry, where she hand crafts the most beautiful earrings, rings, necklaces, and bracelets out of casted lace and fabric. Basically, she takes the most meaningful and interesting cuts of fabric (think your grandmother’s wedding dress) and turns them into gold and silver heirlooms that will last a lifetime. You will see some snippets of her creations in the pictures that follow!

The bespoke nature of Gabe’s jewelry inspired us to create a wedding that represented their impeccable style in the most memorable way.  Skyline Tent company laid the groundwork. CE filled the tent with all the perfect rentals (yes you can mix ghost chairs and tuscan chairs!) + a carpenter built the most amazing pergola you ever did see.  Enter Kelly Odom who worked his flower magic on the entire space.  Edible Art provided a gluten free cake that was almost bigger than me!  (But seriously, those GF cakes are amazing, you’d never know.)  A-C Catering (AKA Ashley Christensen restaurant group) provided the eats.  Yes there was definitely mac and cheese!  The band was Perfect 10 and they literally kept the dance floor packed all. night. long.

To say we truly had the BEST time seeing all of these pieces together would be an understatement – even after years of weddings and being in the industry – we still get chills seeing the magic that happens on wedding day. We hope you enjoy these gorgeous photos by Olivia Rae James as much as we do!
