The Style of the Big Day
Surely many of you have noticed by now that there’s a rather specific feel to everything involving our wedding. When we got engaged last February (has it been that long?!) and started to think about what kind of wedding we wanted,
the only thing we knew for sure was that we wanted something timeless and romantic. We both love the classic far more than the modern in just about everything in life. And as music people, we love the music of bygone eras; specifically, the standards and sweetheart love songs that filled the radio airwaves before rock ‘n’ roll. In fact, if you were to boil it down to one composer, it would be this guy, George Gershwin. The guy spun pure gold.
We’re also big fans of the visual elements of pre-war New York, and the gorgeous lines of design and architecture in the Art Deco era. Not coincidentally, that pairs up nicely with our pal George and his contemporaries, and a wedding concept was born. We hope that on January 31, all of you will feel the spirit of that time through our references to the lush beauty of the music and fashion of the day, and our choice of the Montauk Club, a vintage social club par excellence.
