Gourmet food, exquisite wines and creative details were at the forefront of Meg Drahota and Kane Adkisson’s waterside wedding day at the bride’s parents’ waterside residence. Meg stunned in a sleek fit-and-flare gown as she and Kane, outfitted in a dapper three-piece ensemble, said “I do” beneath an arch garnished with blooms in late-summer hues. Influenced by bright and bold color palettes, the couple worked with Gabi Hughes of Unfolding Events to bring their vision to life. The color “Mallard” from a linen sample supplied by BBJ La Tavola was the center of the design and acted as a nod to the groom’s bird-hunting hobby. As Kane is a James Beard semifinalist chef, providing a one-of-a-kind dining experience featuring the best food and beverage was paramount. Cocktail hour kicked off with caviar bumps, a grazing board and napkins featuring heartfelt messages the bride and groom have shared during their journey of love. To mimic the movement of water, serpentine tables adorned with Mallard tablecloths, petite lamps, patterned napkins and modern paper goods hosted the intimate two-course culinary feast. In lieu of a Champagne toast, the newlyweds provided a red wine toast using a discontinued 2015 bottle from Nine Suns, an homage to one of the first vineyards they visited in Napa together. From first kiss to last dance, Meg and Kane’s wedding perfectly reflected them as a couple, capturing their love story in a magical celebration that was uniquely and quintessentially theirs.
