The bride wore a frothy custom-made gown by Giambattista Valli.
The celebration started here: We wanted our guests to feel the vibe of the weekend from the moment they got our invitations. Our amazing wedding planners Billy Evers and Julie Freed worked with my favorite stationer Cheree Berry and created a series of perfect moments from the Save the Date through the welcome boxes that met guests at arrival.
“We dated for a while before we became engaged,” Selby says. “We broke up a bunch of times in the beginning, which was actually the best thing for us.” Steven ultimately proposed in Amagansett, New York, last August. “We were in Long Island, just hanging out at our house, and it was the most normal, calm day. We took a nap; we went for a swim in the ocean. It was the perfect summer Saturday, and it seemed really quiet,” Selby says.
She arrived at the restaurant where her friend, the manager, told her to keep it together as she handed her the next note, instructing her to “grab the takeout and head to Ditch Plains, where we surf, for another clue.” A surfer had the third note, enclosing even more Scrabble letters, and telling Selby to “come home, I’m in the backyard.” At this point, the letters together spelled out. “There were waterworks, obviously!” Selby says. “I probably drove 160 miles per hour back to our house.
After the calls had been made and the exciting news had sunk in a bit, Selby and Steven set out to plan a relaxed, fun wedding weekend. “We love to surf, we love to be in the water, and we loved the idea of having everyone together—we just wanted one hotel where everyone could be. We’d been to Anguilla a bunch of times, and it’s a really welcoming place. There’s not very much going on other than the water, the sand, the good food, and happy people—and that’s what we cared about.
