What started as a friendship blossomed into much more for Dalit Lederman and Zafi Levy. The two met at a sports club in Israel, and quickly realized they had a lasting connection. Six years later, they were living in the United States when Zafi proposed in a helicopter overlooking the Hudson River. They married 18 months later at a colorful destination wedding on Seagrove Beach. The Bride Dalit Ledeman The Groom Zafi Levy The Date May 30

I had found a unique dress on The Knot that caught my eye right away, Dalit recalls. Designer Mary Quinto recreated Dalit’s gown from the picture, a crystal beaded gown in diamond white satin and chiffon, with an asymmetric neckline and an empire silhouette. Dalit also wore a fingertip veil attached to a crystal beaded comb.
Right on the beach, tiki torches and lanterns illuminated one long table for the bride, groom and their guests, which consisted of ruby red votives, vases filled with monochromatic deep red peonies, burnt orange roses and large glass cylinders holding scarlet liquid and floating candles.
