Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Rudy!

Welcome to the new year and a new wedding season!

We are rejuvenated and ready for the amazing celebrations and unions we have scheduled for the 2010 season. In fact, we had our first wedding of the season on Saturday, January 9th. Margaret and Seth are both amazing people and we wish them the very best in the future! They were so excited, creative and well prepared. It was so much fun! Together they contribute to the academics at NYU and had some very traditional yet style appropriate quotes to toast!

Their family was wonderful and their guests were delightful. Before the ceremony started our couple took some time to discuss and sign the Ketubah. Once the ceremony started, specific family members were designated to participate in the holding of the Chuppah. Both Margaret and Seth shared some heartfelt and truly memorable characteristics about one another, symbolizing why they had chosen to start their life journey together as husband and wife! There were tissues a plenty. As the ceremony wrapped up and the kiddush took place, the groom sited the traditional "Mazal tof" and Rabi Petuchowski announced them.


As the reception celebration started, all the guests took notice of the wonderful efforts that Margaret and Seth went to ensuring their guests would remember their day. Some of the wonderful creations that they shared with their guest included:

  • Unique oragami flowers made from pages of miscellaneous books which were sprinkled throughout the tables in the reception area.

  • Practical favors and beautiful centerpiece designs (using books and the Monte Verde designed floral arrangements as their centerpieces)
They announced during the reception that the books also served as their favors, encouraging each guest to take one home as a momento of their day and a way to enlighten their spirit.

The book titles ranged from such titles as Moby Dick by Herman Melville to Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen. Simply brilliant!

Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Rudy, we wish you decades of love, friendship and understanding! With love - Monte Verde Inn

With engagement season in full swing, we continue to book weddings regularly and we are so excited to celebrate with our upcoming couples!

Till our next celebration...
- Happy Planning -
Kelly and Annette
