The Backyard Wedding

Posted

Like so many couples, Kate and Neil saw their wedding plans derailed due to the pandemic. A post on The Knot, a leading online wedding planning and marketplace, informed guests that the pair planned to keep their original July date but limit the celebration to immediate family and closest friends. What Kate and Neil assembled could not have been more personal or joyous. Held in the backyard of the groom’s family home in Jamestown, the couple exchanged vows on the premises followed by a cocktail hour, passed hors d’oeuvres, dinner, a dessert of homemade churros, and a late-night snack of sliders. No limo for this fun bunch – instead a vintage Beetle was the perfect prop (read more about Little Blue on page 12), along with charming touches like fans on wood benches, a rustic arbor, and a bicycle welcoming guests.

Taking a second look at the backyard? Rental companies can help put all the puzzle pieces together with inventories at the ready of chairs, flooring, tents, tables, bars, linens, and more. In addition to standard companies like Rhode Island Rentals, Ocean State Rentals, etc., if you’re looking for something like a blush pink and gold ottoman to rent, check out Uniquely Chic Vintage based in Lincoln for unexpected panache.
