Kristen & Craig: An Exquisitely Spectacular Berkshires Lake Wedding. 1

When I say everything came together to make this wedding something very special, I mean everything! From the location and vendors, to the dress, the weather, and, of course, the beautiful bride and her doting groom, this was a wedding for the ages and one this party planner will never forget. For the sake of posterity, let’s review Kristen and Craig’s Berkshires Lake Wedding starting with the preparations for the big day.

No stone was left unturned, from the commemorative candles to the sign-in oar and custom card box, to the incredible florals and greenery, to the beautiful blue glassware, this was my kind of decor. Everything matching and complimentary, creating the perfect setting in which to dine and dance with the very newly-weds.

Those who left us too early were not forgotten.
