Tamara Cox and Steven Kalin’s Country Club Wedding

Darien, CT

Tamara and Steve wanted their guests to be the stars of their June 2 wedding last summer at the Woodway Country Club, where they are members. โ€œIt was for our friends and families,โ€ says the bride. โ€œWe wanted them comfortable, interacting and dancing!โ€ Steve, who runs a money-management firm, and Tamara, who oversees a family wine business, both lost their spouses before being introduced by a friend of her late husband. โ€œShort romance, short engagement, long marriageโ€ says Tamara. โ€œIt was apparent to us that we were meant to be together.โ€

In lieu of wedding gifts, guests were asked to make a donation to the charity of their choice. โ€œIt was heartwarming to receive the lovely cards detailing the causes that meant so much to them,โ€ says Tamara.

Barefoot bowling? Bring it on, says Tamara. โ€œWe wanted everyone to have fun,โ€ so the party included Woodwayโ€™s downstairs lanes.
