There’s so much to be said about the beautiful parties you guys have to celebrate your one-of-a-kind love. They are always the perfect culmination of your relationship, from the little style details to the incredible support from your family and friends that seems to fill the room. All of these special moments are just a precursor to your gorgeous wedding day, and it’s so amazing to see all the ways you share in your new chapter in life!

As always, I was SO blown away by the gorgeous engagement party that Jenny from Wildflower Floral Events managed to put together – her parties are always so amazing! Her and Scott celebrated the blending of their families with their closest people in Scott’s unbelievable backyard, which backs up to Moriches Bay. And, even though I was a guest, I couldn’t resist snapping a few photos to remember how intimate it was!

Paige Marion pulled out all the stops with a sprawling 100-person farm table decorated with Wildflower florals that overlooked the water, and a down home bluegrass band played underneath a Wildflower arbor . There was a food truck serving fish tacos parked on the lawn, and we all gorged on some of the most delicious fried chicken I’ve ever had (a Jenny favorite!). Jenny even sang At Last by Etta James to her soon-to-be husband, followed by a fireworks show that lit up the sky to end the night. Truly, Jenny + Scott’s engagement party was the perfect summer soiree, and I am so honored that I was able to be there to help usher in this new chapter for them! And just wait until you see that GORGEOUS ring Jenny wears on her finger – it’s two toned perfection!

Congratulations Jenny + Scott! I am so lucky to call you both my friends, and if your engagement party was this incredible, I can’t imagine what the wedding will be like!
