Jack is from Vermont and Rylee is from Maine. As soon as they got engaged Rylee knew she wanted their wedding to be at a Vermont Bed and Breakfast. They found the lovely Lilac Inn through a google search, and after their site visit, knew they'd found the perfect venue - not only falling in love with the Inn, but the innkeepers, Shelly + Doug. Rylee says "I think the part of the Inn that really made us choose it as our wedding venue was how much we were welcomed and how it felt like home right away." Seriously, how many couples can say that about their venue??? Because of the pandemic, instead of having a large gathering of family and friends in September 2020, Rylee and Jack decided to have a micro wedding and to move it forward to July with their parents and siblings attending. Mother Nature rewarded their decision by giving them a perfect summer day. Jasper & Prudence designed the gorgeous florals and our friends from Gourmet Provence provided the yummy wedding cake.

Congratulations you two! We are all so very happy for you!!!
