Organic elegance is how Emily Notaro (26 and a client portfolio manager for J.P. Morgan) describes the style of her and David Berg's (30 and a CFO of Global Investment Management Marketing at J.P. Morgan) wedding. With a mix of eclectic furniture and colorful blooms, they brought garden party touches to their stately Venetian-style venue. “I loved how my bouquet was so bright. It looked electric, capturing the excitement of the day,” Emily says. The couple used personal elements from their travels to make the day truly their own. Moroccan lanterns reflected their trip to North Africa, while bold magentas, indigos and purples represented their time on the Amalfi Coast. The wedding party sat at a king’s table topped with a textured, woven metallic tablecloth. Emily and David shared an engraved marble bench at one end. “The effect was of an intimate affair at a home in a bygone era,” Emily says. “We hope our guests felt as transported as we did.”
