A Night at The Plaza with Martha Stewart Weddings

Posted by MeganH on Oct 21, 2009

It’s hard to believe that the beautiful pages of Martha Stewart Weddings have been inspiring brides for 15 years now! We had the great pleasure of attending their amazing anniversary party this past Monday night at The Plaza Hotel in New York City.

Many of the wedding industry greats were at the event to celebrate with the Martha Stewart Weddings Team which is a true testament to the magazine’s power and influence.

Here are a few images from the event.  And, in true Martha Stewart Weddings fashion, no detail was overlooked. It was a perfectly planned party!
