Paige & Raph, Romantic elegance in manhattan

You can make a statement by getting married in one of the most iconic classic venues in NYC. But then make the day absolutely unique and speak about you two in every single detail, that's certainly a challenge. And that's what Paige and Raph did exactly, with the help of BLB Events, who designed a romantic winter wedding at The Beekman Hotel that talked beautifully about them. From the intimate celebration and dinner party to each curated detail: lush florals and elegant wedding stationery featuring foil letterpress in shades of sage, green and white. They chose t[...]

Rebecca & tanner, an autumn wedding in virginia

From the very first email Rebecca wrote me, spreading kindness just as the beautiful person she is, the wedding stationery of Rebecca & Tanner has been a favorite project. She chose The Oxford Collection, and we customized it with beautiful shades of the most delicate handmade paper. The sage & black theme, the stunning venue, surrounded by the most beautiful autumn colors, the sophistication along every single detail of their day. But mostly them, this beautiful couple and this loving bride. Just look at Rebbeca and you'll understand why I didn't want thi[...]

August in New York

We had some weeks off before getting back to our routines, so our idea was to spend some days in one of those dream New York beaches (yeah, we were totally thinking of the Hamptons, until we saw the hotel prices during High season). Those beautiful beaches will definitely have to wait.August is that month to escape from the city. But not if that city is New York: this place makes it hard for you to want to get away from it. It always have something new to offer, and that's usually even better than you expected. This week I've double confirmed that: with its publ[...]

wow, are we really gonna live here?

I'm writing this post from my hotel room while outside one of those Summer thunderstorms is falling down. I love Summer storms: the smell of the rain, the color of the streets, and the refreshing sensation it leaves behind. And here in New York is not an exception (of course is not). I'm at that moment in which I love this city whether it's rainign cats and dogs (I know I will change my mind in a few months, I'm scared of the winter here!) This is the Second hotel in which we're staying, so we're still in that provisional state of mind until we access to our apa[...]

I was so looking forward to you, New York

To have a dream and make it come true. That's the incredible feeling I've got during the last 9 days, when I landed with Fernando and Porthos to the JFK in a foogy but still (to me) beautiful day that I won't ever forget. 5 years ago Fernando and I decided, while walking the Camino De Santiago in Spain (an awesome experience I totally recommend you) that we would try to live and work in the United States. But what we wouldn't ever have imagined is that the opportunity was hidden in our dream city.July the 13th was the day to finally take that plane (after more[...]
