2011 Unforgettables

The year 2011 was full of glitz and glam, vintage meets earthiness, and all-together fabulous events that Russell Morin was proud to be a part of. We had weddings that will not soon be forgotten for us and we hope the amazing couples who allowed us to help create their special day have a mutual feeling. We strive to do our best at every single event and hope all of our brides and corporate clients felt we did just that. 2011 was the first year we wrote this blog, and we hope it’s inspired and or entertained some of you out there. From Whoopie Pies and vintage bell jars, to eccentric china and intricate linens, this past year was truly extraordinary! Now for a recap—some unforgettable details from 2011:

History in the Making (JoAnna + David)

A venue that houses a collection of over 35,000 pieces of art, which span over 5000 years of history, became the ceremony and reception site for JoAnna and David’s own marked day in history—their wedding day! The Worcester Art Museum, with its massive beams and grand staircases, got a touch of softness with deep red floral arrangements by Winston Flowers, along with ivory linens. RM treated 100 guests to a variety of comfort foods, warming them up on a cold November 12th night.
