FROM BRAZIL, WITH LOVE: Colorful Wedding At a Private Residence

After their romantic first date in summer 2020, it was clear that Luana Melz and Brent Libby had an undeniable connection. They met through an online dating site, and their love grew quickly. Brent just knew when it was time to pop the question. Their sunny June wedding was full of bright color and lively patterns. The couple tried to bring as much “home” as possible to Luana, who is from Brazil, since her family couldn’t attend due to COVID-19. Lush blooms were on full display at the groom’s family home in Newport, where they held their nuptials. Flowers graced the back of every chair, and a floral installation with twinkling lights floated above as guests enjoyed a macaron tower. Flowers also formed a display of the couple’s initials behind the head table. Ropes of greenery and hanging floral bouquets added to the dreamy ambiance.
