After spending the summer of 2024 in Italy completing her master’s degree, Sydney returned to the U.S. brimming with European inspiration. Growing up listening to Dean Martin with her father and embracing a newfound desire to live truly “La Dolce Vita,” she envisioned an Italian-inspired wedding, with a signature twist of pink! The color palette was chosen to create a high-energy, joyful atmosphere, focusing on an upbeat, celebratory feel. A special detail woven throughout the flat lays was that nearly all of the items were pieces Sydney had collected during her time in Italy. She included Italian stamps, vintage postcards, and her favorite treasures – two wax seals sourced in Venice from a multigenerational Venetian stationery shop. Each seal was hand-carved from gondola wood: one bearing the symbol of Florence, where Sydney’s apartment was located, and the other featuring an ornate “W,” a beautiful nod to her soon-to-be last name.
