A Luxury Yacht Club Wedding at the Larchmont Yacht Club in Larchmont, New York

Crista Petrelli (30, a finance professional) and Luke Downey (30, a finance professional) met in New York City in early 2010 and dated for two years before getting engaged in June 2012. For the proposal, Luke took Crista away for a romantic weekend in Newport, Rhode Island, and then proposed to her at the Bayside Inn.“We were married at the Church of the Resurrection in Rye, New York, which is the parish I grew up attending,” Crista says. “Our reception was at the Larchmont Yacht Club because we wanted a setting overlooking the water. Night brought a beautiful full moon which was gorgeous reflecting off the water. It had a nautical feel to it given the tent was overlooking the water. Our wedding colors were coral and navy and the wedding icon (which appeared on our stamps, menus, invitations and website) was an anchor with a sailors rope around it and our initials ‘C’ and ‘L’ on the inside.’
