An Overbrook House Wedding in Bourne, MA

Groomsmen in Pool

James and Andrew celebrated their wedding at the Overbrook House in Bourne, MA.

I found myself surrounded by the couple's amazing friends, and loving family coming together at every moment of this wedding.  It was a wonderful celebration to be witness to, and the setting was stunning.  A spot of rain on the day timed so it didn't interfere with anything, and was barely noticed by anyone, as everyone was utterly focused on James and Andrew's marriage.  So many wonderful details, and so much collective work from everyone went into making this day special.  Home made cookies....and ALL of the flowers were even grown in the couples garden!  It was a blast, and an honor to document.  I hope you enjoy the images.

York Harbor Reading Room Wedding

hartley mason reserve beach wedding

Hal and Geoff's touching and beautiful wedding day in York, Maine.

I know I could fill an entire paragraph with just one word descriptions of all the fun events and moments from this wedding.  Suffice it to say I enjoyed spending the weekend with these two, and meeting their friends and family (many visiting for the first time from the midwest).  The events started at Hal's family's home/barn (which they basically had to restore) for the rehearsal dinner.  Then, many of the guests were up at the crack of dawn for coffee and SLUICING!  Yes, sluicing.  New to me (and you better believe I jumped in) this involves jumping from the bridge into water on one side of a road, and during the morning tidal shifting water, you get sucked/shot through the "sluice" or tunnel under the road.  It was a blast.

The wedding day begin at the York Harbor Inn, then proceeded to the Harley Mason Reserve for a wedding ceremony overlooking the ocean and beach.  A stunning and peaceful setting for Hal's father (a retired Episcopal priest) to officiate the marriage.  The staff went above and beyond in every way at the Reading Room for the reception, and yikes, did this crew turn the evening into a dance/club scene at the end of the dinner.  #fun  I was honored to document this day, and thanks to all the friendly faces I met along the way.

York Harbor Maine Wedding

 

Hal and Geoff introduced me (and guests) to the tradition of 'sluicing'...jumping off the bridge and having the tide shoot you through the tunnel under the road.  Epic.  Their wedding was filled with fun, support, and emotion.  Enjoy this glimpse into their wedding day at the York Harbor Reading Room (their staff, service and food were the best around!).  Don't forget to change the quality of the video if it starts low!

...please excuse the ad/pop ups, they are not from me....it is the only streamlined way to use good music legally.  The artists and labels get paid, and we get to listen to great music.

Same Sex Provincetown Wedding

p-town celebration

Wade and Steven's wedding was beautiful. 

Emotional. Touching. Stylish. Real. Honest

....and a heck of a lot of fun.  I know I say a lot that I love my clients as well as their friends and family, but these two were surrounded by endless tears the entire weekend.  They started things off in Provincetown with a dragqueen show of the one and only Miss Richfield 1981 along with cocktails (oh, and Wade secretly learned, wrote, and performed a Ukulele song for Steven).  The wedding ceremony was intimate, with everyone standing around them and then off to an amazing dinner at the The Red Inn before ending the night at the famous Boatslip for a Tea Dance.  Loved every second of this, enjoy the pictures.

A Beach Plum Inn and Restaurant Wedding

Anna and Joanna are not only a power couple...but have an aura that just sets you at ease.  They are a joy to be around, intelligent and ever so talented.  I was honored to bear witness to their celebration on Martha's Vineyard Island (my first visit) and document their day.  I found myself surrounded by a group of the most genuine individuals from around the county, and along with them and their family's, I cried my eyes out throughout the numerous emotional and touching moments of the day.  A special thank you to Bernadette of 14 Stories, planner extraordinaire, whose keen eye for detail and hosting is only matched by her love for her couples.   Thank you to everyone involve and I hope you enjoy this glimpse into the day.

State Room Wedding

Lee and Tom's State Room Wedding

Where to begin with Lee and Tom's wedding?!  Firstly, I tend to dislike the term "same sex wedding" since, to me, it is just a wedding filled with love like any other.  But, it is different, and things are changing and it IS special because it adds a level of emotion and historicalness to an event that hasn't always been possible for everyone.  Anyways, the slightly geeky side of me loved their game room with Settlers of Catan, and the science experiment they did for their ceremony...and dare I say Tom custom coded a iPad application for their guest to find their table seating assignments.  Such a wonderful couple and I enjoyed every second spent with them.  A special thank you for Bernadette of 14 stories planning for pulling it all together for them.  Always a joy to work next to her and her team.  Enjoy.
