"At my first wedding, I got married
in a suit in the rabbi's study," says
Lori. "Now, I had found my Prince
Charming. I was a middle-aged
woman in a fairy-tale dress, and I
didn't care. Because I'm living a fairy
tale:'

Clockwise from top left: Lush flower balls are suspended from shepherds' hooks lining the aisle and chairs. Enormous gardenias float in the
bathtub; the same gardenias and floating candles are scattered throughout the home's indoor pool, where guests can stroll. Enormous urns
overflowing with roses and hydrangeas bookend an antique console, which Lori found in New Orleans, welcoming guests into the home's
foyer. The cake, a floral confection, has an interior of mocha and raspberry chiffon. The ketubah at the ceremony. Hints of pink peek through
layers of white, ivory and champagne in the bridal bouquet's David Austin roses, garden roses and spray roses.
