Roma & Rhett— Art Imitates Life
When Rhett, a talented film director and Roma, an effervescent designer tied the knot, it felt momentous. As they so eloquently put it “filled with false starts, family tragedy and national emergencies, we were finally able to have our wedding”. After several postponements, when the day finally arrived, it was spectacular. Thanks to higher powers, the weather forecast went from storms to sunshine, the guests were ready to celebrate and Rhett & Roma couldn’t have been more excited.
Here’s Rhett & Roma’s Wedding — through the lens of Jimmy Raper
A love note from Rhett & Roma
Dearest Romy, Julien, Sarah and the greater team of Mona Farm,
Words can not express the gratitude we hold for the depths in which you have gone to bring our dream to life. Over 22 months in the making filled with false starts, family tragedy and national emergencies we finally had our wedding.
A three day festival of love and family. We felt the reflections and echos of your love for what you do and the genuine care each person in your team bring to your job everyday to enable you to bring strangers dreams to life. Mona Farm is one of the most special places in the world, it’s luxury accomodation, grounds and art collection is nothing short of cinematic, enough to make Luca Guadagnino blush. But behind the perfection of aesthetics it is the atmosphere your team creates that make the experience truly moving. To say that the service was 5 stars somehow diminishes what you do, you guys clearly don’t show up to work, you are on 24/7 because you truely care about the happiness of others.
Every single guest felt this way, and everyone who was a part of this little dream of ours will hold these memories of what you have done for us, for the rest of our lives. To the housekeeping, grounds staff, bar staff, wait staff, golf buggy drivers, and management team thank you for doing what you do.
We will never forget it.
Love always,
Roma & Rhett
