We are always so excited to work with Crystal of Distinct Occasions and her team for a number of reasons. 1. the wedding is going to be amazingly beautiful 2. The couple always knows exactly what they want, and are so much fun to work with. and 3. The food at any wedding we have done with Crystal has been ahhhmazing!!
Food is the one thing on the wedding day that you cannot cheap out on. We always tell our clients that if the food is good your guests will have nothing to complain about, but if the food is bad your guests won’t have any problem pointing that out to the rest of the people sitting at their table. Ele & Carmine’s wedding certainly did not disappoint! Our groom Carmine, who was born and raised in Italy made it his personal quest to see that he had the best antipasto buffet table. We have never been to a wedding that had one before, the crew at Bellvue Manor did a killer job of creating it. I highly recommend an antipasto buffet whether you are Italian or not!
Ele was beautiful in her dress that went on for days. I had to post 2 sets of photos of it, just so you can all see how much detail, and how much dress there was. The whole wedding was beautiful. But what I loved most about everything was how well connected and consistent the themes were. From the dress, to the cake, the decor, the location, the food, the atmosphere. Everything seemed to match and flow so nicely.
We could type all day about how spectacular this wedding was, but instead we would just like to post a ton of our favorite photos (there are sooo many) and thank you to Ele & Carmine for having us as a part of their day. We could tell by the slide show you played during the reception that photos mean a lot to you, so we hope you enjoy these! Thank you Crystal and the gang at Distinct Occasions for being awesome to work with and creating such amazing weddings that make our job so easy to do.
Cheers & Congratulations Ele & Carmine
Erika & Ryan




When we came to do our site visit/walk through of Bellevue Manor with Ele & Carmine one month before the wedding, Carmine made a joke. He said, after he had already ordered the antipasto table; that all he really wanted was a can of sardines for dinner on his wedding day.
Ryan picked him up a small gift at the grocery store that night. ahah!
