Black tie style was transported to the woods for this modern wedding
Brette & Jared envisioned their wedding to feel like their guests had stumbled into a black-tie party in the woods! The forest surrounding Flanagan Farm was an ethereal setting for their floral chuppah ceremony where their fashionable guests celebrated their love. Rich jewel tones filled their day, bringing the beauty of nature into their chic tented reception and decor.

Spending the weekend at Flanagan Farm
The Barn at Flanagan Farm is connected to a charming farmhouse, where the couple was able to stay with their siblings before the wedding weekend! It was so special for the family to watch all the wedding magic come together, while enjoying the property and getting ready. Brette was a gorgeous modern bride in a low-back elegant gown from Ines Di Santo and refined glamour by Bei Capelli.
The bride's beautifully modern look was styled by The Boston Bridal Stylist, paired with delicate jewelry from Ursa Major.
The couple wanted to incorporate lots of green details into their design and the groom's dapper forest green suit from Knot Standard was the perfect touch!
Eclectic yet classic bridal party
The couple's bridal party brought the black tie attire with a unique twists! Brette's bridesmaids wore vibrant jewel tone dresses in different styles and colors to bring a pop of color into the ceremony style. We love how creative this bridal party style is!
Black tie ceremony in the woods
Black tie attire filled the luscious woods where the ceremony was held under a radiant floral chuppah. The couple enjoyed a two year engagement, where they spent time finding and connecting with the vendors that would bring their vision to life! Lani Toscano Design both planned this gorgeous wedding and created the jewel tone florals that filled every aspect of the day.
The couple was set up by Jared's brother and a dear friend of the bride's - who are now married! Jared's proposal was the most romantic day of Brette's life, as he got down on one knee after a hike to the top Killington Mountain with their dog Ziggy. Afterward he surprised her by renting out one of their favorite restaurants, The Backroom, where their family had come from all over country (mid-pandemic) to celebrate their love!

Modern cocktail hour on the lawn
Delicious food and beverage were a highlight of the couple's day - the impeccable catering by Trillium Caterers was the best food the couple had ever had and kept them fed from cocktail hour until the end of the night! Cocktail hour was held on the lawn beside The Barn at Flanagan Farm.
Jewel tone reception with natural elements
The couple knew they wanted their reception design to embrace deep green and jewel tones paired with earthy accents. Although their inspiration was loose, Lani Toscano Design's dream team transformed the couple's ideas into a stunning sailcloth tented reception. The team brought the woods indoors, with trees and greenery as far as the eye could see!
Several incredible vendors made this design possible including Heartwood Essentials, Peak Event Services, Borrowed BLU, One Stop Event Rentals, and Pinch Me Studios. We love the on-trend touch of the disco balls!
Hudson Project Band was next-level entertainment for the night, bringing the best energy and keeping all the guests on the dance floor all the way to the afterparty. Lighting by Griffin & Griffin Lighting set the perfectly moody and fun ambiance!
"There's something just so special about seeing all the things you've talked about come to life, and to be able to enjoy it all with your dearest friends and family." - Bride, Brette
