This ethereal, sea-side chic wedding at Shining Tides (one of our exclusive venues) was family-focused, thought filled, and so beautiful.
Shining Tides is a turn of the century family estate set on serene Mattapoisett Harbor. We adore the giant Cape Cod style porch, facing a backdrop of sparkling water, sand, sailboats, and seagrass. Ashley and Jim chose the venue because of the gorgeous view and the fact that money from their wedding went to help kids go to camp. We love a couple that loves to give back!
Having delicious gluten free options was important to this bride, and accommodating her wishes was no issue for Russell Morin’s chefs, who put together a delicious spread (check it out below). The couple also loves seafood, so we incorporated a local seafood bar at cocktail hour — the oysters were a total hit! And we’d be remiss not to mention the show stopping homemade cookie display that the bride’s mother and aunts put together (in line with a fun Pittsburgh tradition).
“Russell Morin was comprehensive in their planning, their food was absolutely delicious, the presentation was outstanding, and the wait staff was extremely friendly and professional.”
We hope you love perusing the menu and photos as much as we loved helping to bring this couple’s vision to life! Take note of the stunning farm table head table, which incorporated varying shades of blue and distressed wood, and gorgeous soft-hued flowers. We can’t get enough.
