Dearest reader, in a world where romance blooms and the elegance of the Regency era reigns supreme, the Page 2 team found itself amidst a celebration of the most enchanting kind last Saturday, as Lady Michelle Alexis Thomas, an attorney-at-law, and Lord Patrick Nelson, a building contractor and entrepreneur, emerged as the wedding season’s diamond with a Bridgerton-themed wedding at Portland’s Trident Castle. Not only did the event take style cues from the Netflix series, but it also included the bride arriving by boat for the celebration of a union as timeless as it was beautiful.
