The art of romance

Valentine tips for lovers      Every shade of love, gifted by my husband in this collection of swoon worthy love letters from history's greatest men.

One of my favorites, culled from the private papers of Ludwig Van Beethoven, a beautiful declaration of love and longing. In an age of texts and emails, this timeless and unique collection reminds us that none of our new modes of communication can compare to the simple joy of sitting down to read a letter from the person you love most. We hope it inspires you, handwritten vows, a gifted keepsake, or perhaps a love letter;) Happy valentine's day lovelies, xo find a copy of this book @ Barnes and Noble

"Where Glamour Meets New England Charm"

Modern meets Americana - as seen on SMP!

From SMP...This sweet as can be modern meets Americana photo shoot is chalk full of fabulous little details and perfect personalization. Designed by Details with Love and captured beautifully by Adeline and Grace Photography, there is so much down on the farm goodness to devour. From the perfectly paired paper by Paper Moss to the lovely calligraphy by Megan Chapin Calligraphy to the gorgeous and fitting flowers for down on the farm from 539 Flowers, it’s perfect inspiration right down to that fabulous re-appearing little piggy icon. Adorable. - by Abby C.

From Details with Love…I love it when a couple comes to me with one lovely little detail, they envision their special day planned around and with that one thing we style their signature wedding to reflect their unique personality and love story ….when Erica came to me with her the idea; to theme a wedding around a miss American pie style I was thrilled and immediately collaborated with some of our favorite vendors to put this one together. 
 

We ran with all the wonderful fun vintage Americana details of vintage charm, in a fun color palette of poppy red and robins egg blue, complete with a cute little piggy farm animal, who debuted on more than the invites!  The handcrafted driftwood farm table was accented in fresh cotton linen in bold floral pattern, and poppy red and white stripes. Vintage bronzed and crystal chandeliers hung from the trees to add an element of elegance. Mason Jars filled with clusters of seasonal flowers and bringin back the pink carnations tied in vintage lace. For the good ol boys a whisky bar, complete with hand rolled cigars with custom labels (there’s that cute little piggy again!)  A dessert table with locally made fresh baked apple pies (instead of a traditional wedding cake).  On a warm end of summer, evening at dusk, at a charming local farm, our unique modern twist on a classic Americana style with tons of character and personality!

Dreams of Spring and love in bloom

Dreams of Spring and love in bloom. Spring is one of the most popular times of the year for couples to exchange their vows. If you are having a Springtime wedding, then we hope this inspires your wedding details. Flowers in bloom, chirping birds and fresh spring motifs and I’m sprung!

lovely little details - Signature wine labels

Add a personal touch and create an unforgettable keepsake - One way to customize your reception is to create a customized wine label featuring your initials, wedding date, and design motif to compliment the event decor. They make terrific table numbers at the reception and thoughtful gifts for at the rehearsal dinner or perfect for your destination Newport welcome gift bags. I encourage couples to take the time to enjoy a wine tasting together to select a wine that not only tastes delicious but also holds some personal meaning. A wonderful suggestion for a couple who met in, has family from or is heading off to Italy .....a sparkling prosecco for your toast!

Honeymoon Registry!

The newest trend in registries is the honeymoon. That's right our savvy couples are registering for the actual honeymoon. Well think about it, more and more couples live together before marriage. Do you really need another set of pots?

Couples register for anything from the hotel room, sunset dinner cruise, or even snorkling in the Carribean. So whether you are going to vacation in Belize, Hawaii, or Italy......let your guests treat you! We suggest contacting your local travel agent or local AAA office to register for gift cards towards your all inclusive honeymoon package.

Engaged, Get Inspired!

We were just all smiles, so we had to share this piece of inspiration from our recent style shoot in Engaged Rhode Island Magazine! We hope it brings a little inspiration to brides and event-lovers alike.
