For Isabel and Taylor, Myopia Hunt Club wasn’t simply a beautiful place to celebrate – it was home. Isabel grew up on the property, and years later, Taylor proposed there at sunset. Returning to exchange vows in the very place where so many of their memories were made transformed the celebration into a beautiful full-circle moment.
The colors that filled the sky during that unforgettable proposal became the inspiration for an equally meaningful wedding day designed with Marissa Pedone Events and photographed by Samantha Melanson Photography.
A sunset-inspired wedding design
Rather than choosing a single wedding color, Isabel and Taylor embraced the full spectrum of the sunset that had become part of their story.

Guests were greeted by one unforgettable surprise as the officiant made his entrance on a motorcycle before leading a ceremony filled with warmth and sincerity. Following the vows, one of Myopia Hunt Club’s most cherished traditions came to life as the club’s iconic hounds and riders on horseback escorted guests to cocktail hour, celebrating the venue’s rich equestrian heritage in spectacular fashion.
Color-blocked reception design
The colorful reception proved that bold design can still feel timeless when every choice has meaning.
Inside the reception, the concept came fully to life through a striking color-blocked layout, where each table featured its own distinct color story with coordinating linens, florals by Blush and Bloom Floral Design, candles, and paper goods.
Each thoughtfully styled table became its own visual moment while contributing to a cohesive overall design. The layered palette created movement throughout the space without overwhelming it, allowing guests to discover new details everywhere they looked.
At the center of the room, the head table united every hue into one breathtaking installation, a symbolic reflection of the family, friendships, and communities that had come together to celebrate the couple’s marriage.
The result was sophisticated, joyful, and unmistakably personal – a fresh take on New England wedding design that felt destined to inspire couples for years to come.

Laughter, music, and joyful energy carried the evening late into the night, creating memories that guests will undoubtedly talk about for years to come.
A wedding that felt like home
