SP*: Inspirational packing for a sweet Nantucket wedding ...

Apr 27, 2010

Today I thought it would be fun to imagine styling a small Nantucket wedding on a cloudy spring day ... plus a peek at what I'd imagine to be the fabulous essentials that guests should pack for such a New England wedding ... Let me know if you think there's something I forgot! ;o)

Whenever the venue is naturally gorgeous without any embellishments, I like to see the color palette blend in to the surroundings rather than create a contrast. For this inspiration board, I took cues from the ubiquitous yet stunning weathered shingles found on the island and tried to inject lots of natural elements with a relaxed and rustic spin.

... And below is a peek at what I imagine to be the perfect packing for a couple headed to attend this delicious destination wedding:

First up, HERS:

Row 1: Degrade Seraphina dress from J. Crew to wear to the wedding; North Face Sidetrack luggage from Shoebuy - perfect to stow every last piece of clothing and jewelry!

Row 3: Seersucker bikini from J. Crew; North Face Masonic Hoodie in Shoreline Blue Heather from Shoebuy to cover up in case of a chill
Row 4: Lodis Sport French Purse with Frame in Green from Shoebuy; Sun-Down Shades from Anthropologie
