Rachel + Ry's Salem Cross Inn Wedding

Rachel and Ry are two active and busy people who had been engaged for a number of years when they contacted us. We are so glad we could help them get their wedding wheels in motion.

The ceremony took place at the First Congregational Church of West Brookfield with the reception to follow at the Salem Cross Inn, a venue near and dear to our hearts: (Lauren of Eutopia Events was married there in 2008.) The Salem Cross Inn is a restored 18th century farmhouse nestled on 600 acres of New England countryside. The main house dates back to 1705 and the attached barn—where the reception took place—is a peg and beam barn built around 1790. It is decorated with antiques, some of which were saved from houses destroyed in the building of the Quabbin Reservoir. It is quite a beautiful and historic property, and the food is delicious. If you ever have a chance to dine there, we suggest getting the prime rib cooked over the fire on a 17th century roasting jack. It's the only known operating roasting jack in the country!

Rachel and Ry also added some special touches to their wedding day, including their choreographed first dance which everyone enjoyed.

The seasonal and romantic flowers and succulent favors were created by Cameron and Fairbanks, hair and makeup for the bride by Silhouettes Salon and Spa, music by DJ Yedz, and the gorgeous photographs are by the talented Alvah Reida Photography.
