This past weekend, we were happy to be back at the Chocksett Inn for the wedding of Celeste and Tim. With the rain coming all day before and the morning of, all we could do was hope for a break in the weather. As the ceremony came to a close, the sun peeked out! Celeste and Tim joked that the moment they said, “I do!” the blue sky came out! It was true.

I have lots of images to show if this wedding because I could not decide which to post! I picked lots, but you have to see how adorable Celeste is, how gorgeous the flowers were, how elegant the cake was, and how Chocksett Inn helped make the day perfect:

Celeste’s bouquet received lots of compliments! All the flowers were designed by LadySlipper Florist, and owner Natalie was there to make sure every thing was perfect!

All the girls before the ceremony. The colors in the bouquets and in their gowns were amazing:

Each of the girls’ bouquets were slightly different and all very vibrant and gorgeous:

Reception details included centerpieces designed by LadySlipper. Each table had a different arrangement:

The cake was designed by The Cake Lady, Dianne Rockwell. We love her cakes! Steve was especially happy to see that one of the layers was his favorite: Mint Chocolate Chip!

Natalie from Lady Slipper Florist also had designs arranged for the cocktail hour, just outside the Laurelwood ballroom:

We want to congratulate Celeste and Tim and their families! The ceremony was beautiful, and the party at Chocksett was definitely a fun time! Everything went perfectly, and we were happy to be part of your day.

We were fortunate enough to be invited to yesterday’s Open House at the Chocksett Inn. With their new Laurelwood Ballroom and beautiful cocktail area, the Inn was full of excited brides and grooms and also some of our favorite professionals in the wedding industry:

First and foremost was Chocksett Inn’s manager, Paula. She helped make the afternoon a successful event, and she was there to answer questions and to meet with her 2008 and 2009 couples:

The room was decorated with different themed tables, but all had flowers provided by Holmes-Shusas, a well-known name in the wedding industry! Here is one of the many centerpieces:

…and a beautiful hand-tied bouquet:

Allan from A Perfect Limo was also part of the event. His newer vehicles were a big hit with the brides looking to shuttle guests from various locations:

A favorite spot of ours that afternoon was right beside our friend and cake professional Dianne Rockwell, The Cake Lady! Her samples were appreciated, and her work is beautiful! Stay tuned on our blog for a visit to Dianne’s kitchen!

The ladies at a salon called The Claw Shop out in Leominster were happy to pose for a photo. I was excited looking through their brochure and will soon be visiting for a manicure! They do travel for services on location, so keep that in mind for your bridal party!

Here is one of my new best friends, Frank. Frank is the Executive Chef at the Inn and is raved about often. Being vegan myself, I was very excited that Frank has wonderful vegan and vegetarian options!

We enjoyed being part of the Chocksett Inn’s Open House and even meeting up with couples whom we will soon be photographing! We thank Paula for inviting us to such a fun and elegant event. If you have not seen the new Laurelwood Ballroom and cocktail area, definitely call the Inn. Tell them that we sent you!
