Plymouth, MA Wedding at the Plimoth Plantation {Alexandra + Peter}

Now that there is snow on the ground and my 2015 wedding season has come to a close, I am able to step back to this past fall, starting with Alexandra and Peter's gorgeous September wedding. You'll notice that my last wedding blogged was all the way back in August {Emily and Kate's Smolak Farm Wedding} but rest assured there was no lack of fall or winter weddings. In fact, it was my busiest season yet. I decided to put wedding blogging on hold after my summer weddings so that I could edit and deliver to all of my clients as quickly as possible. So get ready because over the next several weeks I'll be blogging all of those gorgeous weddings to share with you. Now, onto Lex and Peter's beautiful day at the Plimoth Plantation in Plymouth, Massachusetts.

I'd be remiss if I didn't start this post with their almost tragic, turned amazing, wedding planning story. Just weeks before their big day, Lex and Peter got the update that no bride and groom wants to hear... the vendor that was contracted to provide both music services and videography had gone bankrupt and was unable to fulfill on its contracts, effective immediately. Lex and Peter quickly took to social media and Cover Story Entertainment  and City Point Films saved the day, providing these services free of charge. That's right. They stepped up big time. And, I have to say, they were such a pleasure to work with. {So here is my huge plug for Cover Story Entertainment  and Andrew at City Point Films should you need either DJ services or videography for your big day.}

Now back to Lex and Peter... Let me tell you, they are simply adorable together. I love how they would play off each others jokes and laugh together so easily. They'd be totally romantic {like in this first flowing veil shot} and then total goofballs the next minute and that combination made for great photography. They picked the beautiful Plimoth Plantation and it was such a pleasure to photograph in its serene garden for their ceremony and utilize the rustic barn doors for their portraits. From the wedding cake and florals to the bridesmaids' gowns and little flower girl poof dress, everything was a classy blush pink. The day itself was perfectly warm, not too hot, not to cold and the mood was just right. Take a look.

North Andover, MA Wedding at Smolak Farms {Emily + Kate}

Earlier this month I was privileged to photograph Emily and Kate's North Andover Wedding at Smolak Farms. You may remember their, quite frankly, unforgettable football themed engagement session. From that you'll know that these two are extremely authentic and down to earth girls who love each other and having a great time. Their wedding showed that as well, with a beautiful landscape filled with the people they love, gorgeous and personalized florals by my new favorite, Moonstone and Moss {yes, they did the last wedding blogged as well!} and, of course, some very cool DIY centerpieces. With amazing patience, these two waited out a flash thunder and lightening storm and it must have been fate because the skies cleared with just enough time for their ceremony and family portraits. Under a gorgeous white tent, the dance floor was hoppin the entire night. When a night ends in donuts for all, I'm pretty sure everyone is happy. I loved being a part of their day and I am so excited to share it with you!

Canton, MA Wedding at Pequitside Farm {Barbara + Matt}

This wedding has been featured on Borrowed & Blue!

This wedding has been featured on Borrowed & Blue!

I was honored last February when Matt asked me to photograph his surprise wedding proposal to Barbara. It was the first time I had been asked to document such an occasion and I can't even tell you... it was just beautiful beyond words. Matt and Barbara met at JP Centre Yoga so it was apropos for him to propose to her after the same class they met in one year later. I sneakily took the class, "packed up" and then hid behind the doorway from the teachers' room. Matt put on a beautiful song, I Choose You, and as they did some partner yoga poses, Matt opened up a yoga block with a hidden ring box inside. Oh how I get goosebumps just writing about it now. A few weeks later I met with them to talk about their big day and was incredibly happy to receive the email, "we now have a question for you... will you be our wedding photographer!?" Even before seeing the photographs, I bet you can already tell that these two are the sweetest people. I adored photographing their Pequitside Farm wedding earlier this month filled with DIY goodies and a ton of love. What a beautiful day!
