I have some majorly stylish friends according to these two weddings of girls whom I went to Miss Porter’s with what feels like eons ago. When I saw their pictures I knew I had to share with you as both are just so wonderful!
This first wedding took place in the same town where we all went to boarding school at the gorgeous Hillstead Museum. Looks like the rain did not damper anyone’s spirits (nor the bride’s amazing Oscar de la Renta gown). And that pug. OH, that pug! Photos by the amazing Ira Lippke Studios.
Gorgeous much?
This second wedding took place on the enchanting Shelter Island, NY at an amazing manor house that was the groom’s grandmother’s former home. I love that history of the setting as well as the fact that they worked that history into their event- such as clipping boxwood for the grooms men’s boutonniere’s from the grounds (the home has the first boxwoods ever brought to the United States!) The wedding was shot by Denis Reggie who took that famous photo of JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette leaving the church.
LOVE this vintage key place card idea!!!
After-party in the garden!
Beautiful! I was at Hill-Stead the day post for a site visit:). Here’s another Porter’s gal that got married there as well:

That first dress is insanely beautiful! The couple looks so happy too, a recipe for beautiful (and pinterest worthy) wedding photos!
You know you’ve hit East Coast blueblood when the boxwoods matter.
These are all so gorgeous! Now if only I could just find myself a hubby…
wow, both look like spectacular weddings!!! the first one looks like it came straight out of Pride & Prejudice!

One of my good friends went to Miss Porters (!), but I’m thinking she may have been a couple years ahead of you. Erin Brennan ring a bell?
