Wedding Tales: Sustainable & Organic - Reid & Sarah
I'd like to introduce you to Sarah and her now husband Reid. Sarah is the founder and designer behind Sarah Waldo Organic Clothing for Children. Her business envelopes her beliefs of preserving the world around her with sustainable clothing using organic and natural fibers. Their special day carried out this same belief with a beautiful organic and nature inspired feel.
How did you meet?
Reid and I met over the summer on Cape Cod. Reid was a tennis pro at the local tennis club and I brought the kids I nannied for in for lessons every week. The kids adored him and it didn’t take long for me to be head over heels as well!
* I made the napkins for the place settings from natural, eco-friendly linen. After the event we gave a dozen to everyone who helped to make the day a success!
My favorite details had to be the flower girl’s ensembles. I am an organic childrenswear designer, so I made the girls' outfits; dresses in the colors of sea glass and paired them with beautiful beaded shrugs to dress them up. My mother made Nantucket Lightship Baskets for each of the girls with a personalized nameplate. They really just looked so adorable and happy!
Any vendor recommendations?
Amanda Harris from Orchard Cove Photography. Honestly, I could not have dreamt of more perfect pictures to capture our style and the mood of the day. She rolled with all the last minute changes and literally went unnoticed throughout the ceremony, which was so important to our parents.
The Carlos de Leon band out of Providence provided us with fantastic Cuban Jazz all night long.
Chef
Paul Lively from Brewster, MA was wonderful to work with and really
worked with us on creating a menu that wasn’t traditional “wedding
food!”
