“For her September wedding to Chris Cunningham, Jade Holdaway envisioned a simple, elegant event. Their search for a venue led them to the chic beach town of Bridgehampton, NY, where they spend their summers. They visited the Bridgehampton Tennis and Surf Club one rainy day, and in spite of the inclement weather, they knew it was the perfect spot for them. Jade worked with the designer Gina Pedone to create her dress. After six fittings, the result was an airy, crocheted gown with cap sleeves, an open back and a sweeping train. Jade kept her accessories simple: diamond drop earrings (a gift from Chris) and a veil adorned with the same lacy fabric that made up her dress. Before the big day, Jade was most excited for the reception, so she was a it surprised at how much she loved the ceremony. “The atmosphere on the beach when we took our vows was breathtaking,” she says. “With the light and the waves crashing. It was magical.” – Elegant Bride
