BRIDES: Best Wedding Planners in America

What a way to end the year! Ang Weddings and Events was named one of the best wedding planners in America by BRIDES. I am over the moon about this honour. Thank you to Anna Price Olson and the BRIDES team for including us. I loved the introduction they wrote for this piece. Planners have been working so hard this year to support their clients and vendors through the challenges of planning a celebration during COVID-19. I have been so lucky to find myself in an industry where we all worked hard to support each other through uncertain times. I am deeply grateful for the community and acknowledgement. Onwards and upwards!

Mandarin Oriental New York Wedding: Alice and Sanjay

Alice and Sanjay’s double wedding was my last wedding of 2019 and it was quite a celebration to end out the year! Looking back it was also my last wedding before COVID-19. Now looking over these pictures and seeing a celebration of over 200 guests brings with it a whole host of emotions for me. I greatly look forward to the wonderful day when we can get back to these big fabulous weddings in New York City. In the meantime, I hope this recap brings some inspiration to couples out there planning away.

Blue Hill at Stone Barns Wedding with Sunflowers

I have always been fond of sunshine yellow and was so happy to hear that this couple loved it too. For the dinner in the hayloft, Poppies and Posies used delicate yellow sunflowers woven throughout their arrangements of olive, geranium, zinnia, lisianthus, cosmos, dahlia and unripe raspberries. These were displayed in ceramic vases that complimented the beautiful china that Blue Hill at Stone Barns uses.

Four Seasons NYC Wedding: Xi and Eric

Often couples come to me with a venue they already have in mind, but sometimes I get to work with couples right from the beginning. It is really exciting to learn what an engaged couple hopes for and how they want to feel on their wedding day. We looked at some great wedding venues all around NYC and the winner was the Four Seasons Downtown Hotel.

Blue Hill at Stone Barns Wedding: Linden and Jacob

Linden and Jacob's Blue Hill at Stone Barns wedding in the spring was so beautiful that it took forever for me to get this blog post together! I had such a hard time choosing pictures from Heather Waraksa, one of my very favourite photographers. The vendor team we collaborated with produced such exquisite work and Linden and her mom were a joy to work with. Blue Hill at Stone Barns is truly spectacular in June. Everything is so lush and green throughout the property.

Blue Hill at Stone Barns Wedding: Anna and David

Anna always knew she wanted to get married at Blue Hill Stone Barns. She grew up in Irvington and had visited Blue Hill many times to walk the grounds and dine at the restaurant. It was the perfectly fitting for her to have a Blue Hill at Stone Barns wedding over Memorial Day weekend.

A Brooklyn Wedding

J&C were married on the water at Liberty Warehouse in Red Hook, Brooklyn. The weather was not cooperating with us that day with a steady drizzle all morning. However it cleared up just in time for us to setup the the ceremony outdoors and for the portraits to happen outside. A million thanks to Poppies and Posies for making it happen outside with a tight setup time!

Blue Hill at Stone Barns Wedding: Hunter and Ryan

We could not have asked for a more perfect spring day for Hunter and Ryan’s Blue Hill at Stone Barns wedding in Pocantico Hills, New York. Hunter wore a stunning Oscar de la Renta gown with sheer sleeves and floral embroidery and an oversized asymmetrical bow at the back. On her feet she wore a hair of hot pink Manolo Blahnik heels. Ryan wore a navy and black tuxedo from Isaia with lace-up oxfords from John Lobb. I am slightly obsessed with the wildly romantic bouquet that Putnam and Putnam designed for Hunter. Featuring peonies, hellerbores, tulips, rannunculus and roses, it had such gorgeous texture and colour!

Blue Hill at Stone Barns Wedding Video: Linden and Jacob

Here is Linden and Jacob’s video highlight from their Blue Hill at Stone Barns wedding with McKenzie Miller Films! I absolutely loved their ceremony that took place under the cafe awning in the courtyard. The rain forecast wasn’t being very clear that day, so we pushed the decision as late as possible, and ended up setting up under the covered area in the courtyard. It worked nicely for their count of 110 guests and created a long aisle for Linden and Jacob. The ceremony florals growing up from the ground by Poppies and Posies actually looked even better against the brick wall of the restaurant than it might have done against the grand tree in the courtyard!

Blue Hill at Stone Barns Wedding Anniversary

Most of our Blue Hill at Stone Barns weddings range from 150-220 guests, but sometimes we get to plan an intimate celebration and it is small enough to fit in the main dining room in the restaurant. Which I absolutely adore! Michelle and Dmitri celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary with a vow renewal at Blue Hill in the fall. The restaurant is closed on Monday and Tuesdays, so it allows us to use the space for a special celebration on a Monday night after a holiday weekend!
