Belle Fete catered an amazing coastal wedding this past weekend in Phippsburg, ME. Held at the Bride’s family cottage, the guests were delighted by the incredible vistas of open ocean.
They chose a very simple color palette of blue and white. The flower arrangements were predominantly white with subtle green accents and were absolutely stunning! They were designed by Emily Carter who came to personally setup the reception site. The tables had a simple blue overlay that perfectly set off the colors of the flowers. Guests names and table numbers were written in navy blue ink on white clam shells that the bride and groom had gathered.
