Romantic, elegant, and timeless— three words that come to mind as we admire the pictures from this couple’s big day! Designed around a literary theme, Kristin and Alex’s wedding is a real reflection of their 17-year-long love story. Every detail of their beautiful Hudson Valley celebration reflected their personalities to a T.
Kristin wore Martina Liana Style 1075, a classic lace A-line gown she discovered during her wedding dress shopping trip to Kleinfeld Bridal. She paired it with a purple cascading bouquet for a classic bridal look. The groom matched the bride’s vibe with a standard black and white tux.
Every element of their big day was rigorously curated, and the result was a marriage day full of precious moments. Nelson Malta from Drawlines Studio worked their magic behind the camera, and below are some pretty highlights of the of the couple’s big day.

Tell us More About Your Wedding. What Were Your Theme and Colours? How did you Make Your Wedding Personal to Your Love Story?
We truly wanted our wedding to reflect who we’re as individuals and as a pair— and above all, wanted the main target just on us. We didn’t have a bridal party or lots of the traditional traditions, but we did have literary-themed tables and other personal touches.
We opted for authors and quotes as an alternative of numbered tables and personalized bookmarks as place cards and favors. Our signature drink was a French 75, and we selected beef bourguignon as one in all our entrees because we love all things French.
We’re an enormous soccer family, too, so our recessional song was the Champions League theme song. My grandmother, who passed away once I was 16, loved calla lilies, so we had them all over the place in her honor.
Cheers to Kristin + Alex!
