THE WEDDING OF LEAH & QUENTIN

August 18, 2018 Cambridge, Massachusetts

By Courtney Raymond

There are few more perfect backdrops to begin a lifelong love story than Italy. It was there, in one of the most romantic places in the world, that Quentin got down on one knee before his vero amore, Leah. “It was just the two of us and Quentin proposed with my great-grandmother’s ring,” Leah remembers. “The ring had been lost, but luckily my mom found it and mailed it to him just two days before we left on our trip.”

In August, the couple tied the knot before their family and friends at the Harvard Art Museums in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Set against a modern backdrop, their wedding incorporated artistic embellishments and hot-pink accents. Of their handwritten vows, Leah says, “There was a lot of humor in our words and that brought levity to the rest of the day.”

Another personal element was the table décor: watercolor paintings of places the couple has traveled, surrounded by textured floral arrangements by Laura Jean Floral. “The table garland had fruits like plums and pomegranates, and also herbs,” Leah says. “She created something that I wanted but wasn’t able to describe.”

Leah was most excited to bring her Indian culture to her and Quentin’s big day. One sentimental touch was her veil, which was made by a close friend from the fabric of one of her grandmother’s saris. “It was nice to have a piece of her there since our celebration in India isn’t until later this year,” she says.
