That's a Wrap
I thought you’d enjoy some candid shots from this morning’s Today show wedding. Though I was certainly nervous (many, many times in the past few weeks!), it went even better than I could have hoped. Jessica and Cody are off to Seychelles tomorrow; the rest of us will be enjoying some well-deserved down time!
Jessica took a break from getting her hair and makeup done to pose with her mother (on the left) and Martha.
The guests filed on to the set well before sunrise.
Jessica’s mother walked her down the aisle. (Jess later insisted that she stumbled, but I certainly didn’t notice!)
Cody and Jessica were married by the priest from Jessica’s childhood church.
The reception room (above Tiffany & Co.!) looked amazing right before the party started. Between the ceremony and the reception, Matthew Robbins used “hundreds of hydrangeas and thousands of roses.”
The favor boxes each held a DVD of Breakfast at Tiffany’s (our inspiration for the wedding), a bottle of Sterling Vineyards wine (Cody and Jessica’s favorite!), a Martha Stewart Crafts photo album, frosted cookies by Eleni's, and Cracker Jacks (also a nod to the movie).
Each place was set with Mehlenbacher’s salt water taffy, a favorite of Jessica’s—she grew up on the beach.
I paused to pose with Martha, Deputy Style Editor Randi Brookman-Harris, and Senior Associate Style Editor Katie Berry before the reception began.
The bridesmaids posed with a flower girl and a ring bearer outside Tiffany.
A flower girl and ring bearer took advantage of the props (inspired by Breakfast at Tiffany’s) at the sign-in table, which also held Polaroid cameras.
Our crew also stopped by the sign-in-table! From left, writer Kimberly Fusaro, stylist Kristi Blunt, Special Projects Editor Anthony Luscia, me, and Katie Berry.
Martha couldn’t resist the props, either!
Cody and Jessica (check out her adorable Larissa Barrera bag!) got a few minutes to enjoy the meal. (Caterer Peter Callahan woke up at 4:30 a.m. to have everything ready in time!)
The couple left Tiffany to applause from the staff and customers.
Our photoshoot afterwards stopped traffic on Fifth Avenue.
congrats on a great job! you guys really pulled it off!

What an amazing wedding and reception. My husband and I were guests and enjoyed every minute of it. It was obvious that so much time and energy went in to every detail and it was beautiful. When I walked in to the reception room with the flowers and table decorations, I had to catch my breath - it was just like I imagined a Martha Stewart setting to be! The food, the band, the gift for us, the time for toasts and family moments, everything was so special. Thank you so much for making this a wonderful memory for Cody, Jessica and their family and friends. We truly appreciate your hard work.

Hi Darcy. I love your work on this wedding and I'm trying to replicate the silver bells you used with the suede pouches, but it seems that usbox.com doesn't sell pouches with ribbon trim. Did you thread all the ribbons through the boxes yourselves at the magazine?
I'd also like to know where you found the tiffany blue favor boxes.
Thanks!

Hi Darcy!
I LOVE your blog. I had to come back and comment on this "Breakfast at Tiffany's" themed wedding ... It was one word: FABULOUS!
I need to know, WHERE can I find those gorgeous personalized napkins with the pretty script/font? Seen in this picture: http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/8480/breakfast1rx6.jpg ... Top right corner with the coffee cup?
Thanks in advance! :-)
