@PaigePaul had a clear creative direction when planning her wedding to @TommyPaull. With Old Westbury Gardens set as the venue, she turned to her next creative decision: her dress. Knowing she wanted to work with an American fashion house, she chose @CarolinaHerrera for her wedding ensemble, having admired @WesGordon’s work for many years. When she received the first sketches from the team, she remembers getting chills. “Wes created something even more beautiful than I could have imagined,” adds the bride. Later, Paige changed into another custom Carolina Herrera dress, backless with an oversized bow embellishment, to cut the cake.
Together, the couple envisioned a celebration that was warm, thoughtful, deeply personal, and romantic. “Having everyone we love together in one place was incredibly special,” Paige says. Reflecting on the day, Paige shares that she has an overwhelming feeling of gratitude, and that it was a beautiful start to their marriage. “It feels like we threw the party of the decade,” Tommy adds. “It was so special. And this next chapter with Paige is something I’ve been looking forward to since the day we met.” Tap the link in our bio for more photos and details on the timeless and romantic celebration.

Repost from @voguemagazine: @TommyPaull and @PaigePaul are married! The tennis player and the creative director and @DairyBoy founder’s love story began the way many modern romances do: with a few likes on Instagram. After Tommy started engaging with some of Paige’s posts in the summer of 2022, she decided to make the first move and sent him a DM. Instagram messaging led to texting, and the two agreed to meet later that year at the US Open. “Tommy invited me to one of his matches,” Paige remembers. “And the rest is history.”
Just over a year after getting engaged on Nantucket, their wedding was held at Old Westbury Gardens on Long Island, NY on July 14. “I wanted the wedding to feel true to who we are and where our story began,” shares the bride. “It felt like my heart was going to burst out of my chest, and I couldn’t hold back tears,” the groom remembers about waiting for his bride. After the ceremony, the couple quickly took some portraits before rushing to their cocktail hour and reception, wanting to spend as much time with their guests as possible. Tap the link in our bio for a look inside their celebration at one of Long Island’s iconic estates.
