"Our vision was an elevated garden wedding,” says Madeline Danesi of her nuptials with Mitchell Borrowdale. That vision was brought to life with a mix of bright florals set against the property’s lush greenery, summery linens, and garden-themed details.
With such a small guest list (32 total), “lots of special details were added,” Madeline says, such as custom dinner napkins and additions to the menu.
Pressed (real) flowers adorn the cake.
Madeline's middle name is Coral, so incorporating that hue "was a huge factor," she says.

"All the floral arrangements were organic, natural, and a little wild," Madeline says.
Personalized, gold-rimmed oyster shells served as place cards. Guests feasted on a seafood raw bar during the cocktail hour as well.
"The decor was truly magical," Madeline enthuses. "I had chosen not to see anything that day, and when I walked out of the house, seeing all the florals mixed with the natural greenery, the candles lining the aisle and hearing the music in the background all made the moment so special. It truly felt like a dream!"
