Wed in a Grove on Family Estate
Jarvis J. Slade Jr. and Tonia J. D’Angelo of East Hampton were married on Aug. 15 at the Slade estate on Middle Lane. They exchanged vows in a grove of old oak trees under an arbor made from bamboo growing in a back field on the property.
Jane Holmes officiated, and a reception followed in a field next to a barn dating from the 1800s.
Both the bride and groom were previously married. All of their five children participated in the wedding. The bride was escorted down the aisle by her oldest son, Collin Kavanaugh, while Maxfield and Leo Panish played “The Secret Wedding” from “Braveheart” on violins.
Also attending the bride were her daughter, Kate Kavanaugh, 17, as maid of honor, and her son Cameron Kavanaugh, 15.
Mr. Slade’s daughter Ana Beatriz was in the wedding party and his 10-year-old, Sofia, was the flower girl. John Breen of East Hampton was his best man.
Mr. Slade is the son of Alice Patterson of McLean, Va., and Jarvis Slade Sr. of East Hampton. He is the chief executive officer of Stage Point Capital L.L.C., a privately held real estate investment fund, and has previously held senior executive positions at Christie’s International Real Estate, Abercrombie & Kent, and American Express Travel. He graduated from St. Paul’s School in Concord, N.H., and with honors and distinction from Stanford University.
The bride, the daughter of Laura Koupoulos of Hollywood, Fla., and the late Anthony D’Angelo, graduated from East Hampton High School and Stony Brook University. A yoga teacher, she is a founder of Tonia D’Angelo Yoga, Reiki, and Retreats.
On her wedding day Ms. D’Angelo Slade wore a dress from Anthropologie’s Beholden line and carried a bouquet of dark and light pink peonies, poppy pods, roses, and gerbera daisies, with a fresh gardenia in her hair. Her daughters were in cream chiffon strapless dresses and carried gerbera daisies, larkspur, freesia, and roses.
The groom’s daughter Sofia sang “A Thousand Years.” Wedding guests sat on hay bales covered with yoga blankets and pillows and danced the night away under an open-sided tent.
The couple are living on Town Lane in East Hampton. They plan a two-week yoga and hiking pilgrimage to India in October.
