The Colony Hotel hosted a poolside bash to celebrate our latest Palm Beach cover starring president and CEO of The Colony, Sarah Wetenhall. Take a look at some of the bold-faced PB social set who joined us for the fun!

It’s officially bridal season! What’s the landscape of the bridal industry like right now? It’s a more maximalist approach for sure—from the dress to guest attire and overall ceremony and celebration.

You’re the creative force behind Morilee, which was originally founded as a family business in 1953. How do you describe the brand?

At Morilee, we’re proud to be leaders and innovators within our industry while keeping true to the core look and feel of the brand. Just as our brides and their needs have evolved, our collections have through the years as well. Each collection is designed with a specific bride in mind and helps us offer the perfect look for every bride.

What’s the backstory to how you landed at Morilee?

I’ve always had a love of lace, and after studying couture design at FIT and being mentored by the one and only Oscar de la Renta, bridal seemed like the perfect fit. After being given a threeweek trial with the company, my career with Morilee began—and 37 years later, the rest is history! How do you describe your design aesthetic?

Classic and romantic first and foremost, but always fresh and forward.
