Once upon a time... It was in May, to be more precise, when jewelry designer Pamela Love married illustrator Matthew Nelson in a special, hippie-inspired ceremony. Have a nosey at their wedding photos revealed in Vogue!
Sweet sighs and lots of oohs and aahs could be heard from the
very first peek we took at Pamela Love's wedding photos revealed in
VOGUE magazine. Well, they certainly made us dream at a
ridiculously fabulous and super-simple wedding in a slightly
untypical background. And Love's special day proves once again that
we don't necessarily need fancy and sophisticated things in order
to celebrate true love.
The jewelry designer married illustrator Matthew Nelson in May at
Ruschmeyer’s, a 1950s summer camp turned resort in Montauk, Long
Island. "I wanted the wedding to be about being in a natural, wild
environment — which is kind of what love is," Love admits. The two
said their vows under a birch chuppah covered in traditional
Appalachian quilts, a combination of Love’s Jewish and Nelson’s
Southern roots. Yes, you can tell a dreamy story going for the
cool, simple and less conventional way!
"... And I knew from that moment on you would be a big part of
my life, for the rest of it. I never believed that those sorts of
things actually happened until it happened to me. You make me
believe in fate and true love. Since that first meeting, I have
grown to love you more and more every single day. Your talent
amazes me, your passion and conviction inspire me, your mind
challenges me and you make me laugh every day." Yes, we sigh again
while reading these words. Vows are always emotional indeed but
they become memorable when said from the heart using the simplest
words possible.
The beautiful bride wore an off-white chiffon dress with a faint
mauve print and an open lattice back, created by her friend Mara
Hoffman. Love designed some unique jewelry pieces for her wedding
such as the amethyst pendant and the silver peacock ring, and
matching white gold wedding bands with turquoise inlay. Still, it
was her romantic wildflower head wreath drawing our attention! The
groom wore a bespoke suit by Billy Reid completed with blue
lapis–and–silver cuff links designed by the bride.
Planning every single detail for the big day can cause some
serious drama. However, where there's team work, everything becomes
easier. And for Love's wedding, closer friends had fun contributing
to the preparation of every aspect from that delicious-looking cake
with one vegan layer for Nelson to the tepee where guests relaxed
after dinner hearing guitar. Even the happy couple "spent the day
before the ceremony potting flower arrangements in Mason jars that
decorated the tables, with help from Fox Fodder Farm, and Love
approached the chuppah to a rendition of Neil Young’s 'Heart of
Gold.'"
"It was perfect, like hippie summer camp," Love confessed. "We were
having a wedding in the country; I wanted to be able to run around
barefoot if I wanted to!" Need we say more? Oh, yes! Pamela and
Nelson were the last to leave the reception... and they lived
happily ever after...
