Our Story...
I moved to Boston in 2016 for what I thought would be a short-term adventure. Instead, I built a life filled with a rewarding career and amazing friends. After the pandemic, I decided to explore the dating scene and met Nick on Hinge.
Our first date, at a charming Boston restaurant, ended with espresso martinis and a spark.

We spent the fall exploring the city together… trying new restaurants, walking with my dog Ellie, and even braving a haunted house. As our relationship deepened, I introduced Nick to my family in upstate New York. We explored Saratoga Springs, a place close to my heart, and visited the iconic Saratoga Race Course. Horses and racing have been a big part of my life since childhood, thanks to my dad who trained Thoroughbreds. Nick was immediately captivated by the energy and excitement of the track.

When Nick proposed, we were thrilled to discover that Saratoga Race Course hosted weddings! Mazzone Hospitality made our dream a reality, helping us plan an intimate ceremony in the paddock and a reception on the 2nd floor of the 1863 Club. Their team was incredible, guiding us through every detail with ease and offering a delicious food tasting that showcased their culinary talents.
Thanks to their support (and a surprisingly helpful wedding attendant!), I was a calm and collected bride. Our wedding day was truly magical, filled with love, laughter, and the undeniable thrill of starting our forever, at a place so special to me.

Advice to Pass Along...
My advice would be to not worry too much. Enjoy the process and don't overthink the details. Your family and friends are there to celebrate you and won't remember the smallest things.

Rehearsal Dinner
The Brook Tavern
The gold horseshoe place settings and favors were a huge hit. All of our friends and family have been displaying them in their homes for good luck. We also had a bowl of bubbles (Esty) for guests to take as they walk in, so they could blow bubbles right after the "I Dos." They were cheap and cute and I love how the bubble photos turned out. Additionally, Mazzone created a special logo with our names and wedding date and had it shown on every screen throughout the track including the infield. It was exciting for our guests to see and made us feel so special.
