Boston with a Twist

Boston. A very Boston Wedding. That’s what Leilani and Adam were going for when they designed their wedding day. All of the special details pointed to their connection to the city, with perhaps a nod to Hawaii, where Leilani has family roots; and they added a splash some very personal choices. From their venue selection (ceremony at the Boston Public Library, portraits at the Public Garden and reception at the Museum of Science) to their invitation design to their absolutely delish cookie tower cake with Pez cake toppers, they celebrated the best that Boston and they as a couple have to offer.

Special lei’s for the groom, groomsmen, ring bearer and father of the bride.

Such a great entrance for a bride into the courtyard of the BPL.

Yup. It’s scary.

This little guy’s eyes are so expressive.

Celebrating with friends, part one.

So many fun kids!

 There are so many more great images to come from their portraits in the park and their wild reception at the MOS, so definitely keep checking back.

Race to the Party

Once the Museum of Science wedding ceremony and bride and groom portraits were complete, it was time to party. Given the nature of this particular wedding day- it being the Race to the Altar and all- there were news crews on the scene getting the scoop from our couples. When they made it past them, they ventured up to the Skyline Room and d’Arbeloff Suites for their celebration- complete with a grand entrance, dance music, food appropriate to the time of day, and cupcake cutting. They culminated their wedding with a Duck Boat Tour around Boston.

One of our grooms. He and his wife had flown in from Utah for the Boston Marathon. He runs with one natural leg and one prosthetic leg, with the aim of running a marathon in every state. He’s already done 15 marathons in 13 states. While here, they were thrilled to be chosen for a vow renewal ceremony during our wedding marathon.

After the Altar

What we discovered on this magical spring day was just how much we love photographing at the Museum of Science. We were challenged by intensely bright light and not quite enough time with each couple, but our goal remained the same as it does for all of our weddings- give each couple a unique photographic look for their wedding. I always feel the portrait sessions show that better than any other part of the wedding. And so we attempted to create 23 different portraits for our clients with minimal time and with minimal location changes. Here are just a few of our favorites….

Two grooms and a view.

Race to the Altar

On a fantastically lovely spring day, Friday the 13th of April 2012, twenty-three couples made vows of commitment. Each had eight guests, their own ceremony, their own portrait session, a reception and a trip with Boston Duck Tours. The Museum of Science was the setting and the city of Boston was their backdrop. The couples varied in age, race, religion, sexual orientation, number of children, place of residence, but all had two things in common, they loved the person that stood by them through this crazy wonderful day and all were part of the first ever Race to the Altar.

For Dave and I, it was a day to test our skills and creativity, a day for celebration and a day of mad fun. And yes, it was a bit exhausting. It was, after all, one typical wedding season condensed into one day. But it was worth it, because the stories we heard and the emotions we witnessed were nothing short of amazing. And so I share with you the Race to the Altar Wedding Ceremonies.

Destination Inspiration

When planning a destination wedding, it can be a challenge to bring all of the ideas you have together. With a unique location, inspiration is not the problem, but rather logistical details. Cassie and Dan had a beautiful vision for their wedding and selected the right team of people to bring it all together. Everything went off without a hitch, a pefect celebration on their much loved Martha’s Vineyard.

The pros:

Church: Old Whaling Church, Edgartown, Martha’s Vineyard/ Reception: Dr. Daniel Fisher House, Edgartown, MV / After party venue: The Boathouse, Edgartown, MA / Getting ready location: The Wheel House at the Kelley House / Event Planning: Judy Murray of MV Event Planning / Bride’s hair and makeup: Sea Spa, Edgartown / Cake: Kim Garrison, Something Sweet / Wedding Gown: Priscilla of Boston, Boston, Mass / Bridesmaids’ Dresses:  Dessy Lela Rose Collection / Groom’s attire: Raymond Personal Tailor / Floral & Event Design: Donaroma’s Nursery / Entertainment (ceremony): Eric Johnson / Entertainment (reception): Jon Bates Band and John Alaimo, pianist / Wedding invitations: Goosefish Press, Boston, MA / Save the Dates: Vera Wang / Rehearsal dinner invites: Wedding Paper Divas

Getting ready- Dan at Cassie’s family home and Cassie at her hotel- offered an opportunity to capture details that set the tone for the day.

The letterpress invitations with island details and their unique wedding bands.

Fairmont Festivities

After enjoying the beautiful day in the Public Garden, Janette and Wes returned to the Fairmont Copley Plaza for relaxation followed by their wedding reception. And what a celebration it was… the bands’ tunes, Janette’s sisters speech with accompanying slideshow, and the dancing. Of course, I couldn’t stop with that, because we were also able to capture portraits at night on Copley Square and in front of the Boston Public Library. The final treat of the evening were streamers blown into the air drifting down on the couple. Really kind of amazing, actually. So step right into this fairy-tale wedding.

Magical Night for Ayesha + Jon

You really can’t go wrong when you get married at a Castle. So when Ayesha and Jon chose Searles for their backdrop, they knew they had found the perfect spot to celebrate their wedding ceremony and their reception.

searles-castle-wedding-nh-indian-christian-reception-2 guests enjoy castle views

The ceremony was held on the lawn to the left of the castle. Well actually the ceremony was held on the castle wall and the guests were seated on the lawn. They blended Ayesha’s South Asian traditions with Jon’s Christian ones, bringing together their two cultures in a beautiful way.

The bridesmaids entered first.

Followed by two of Ayesha and Jon’s adorable neices and nephews as flower girl and ring bearer. And then followed by Ayesha and her dad.

Especially love this shade of red accentuated by the creamy roses.

After the ceremony, Ayesha changed into her western wedding dress. Jon got to see her for the first time, again.

After a few portraits and a little time alone, they joined their guests in the tent for their first dance.

A speech by Ayesha’s best brides’ man.

And because they met at Ohio State and had their fabulous peers at the wedding. We had to do at least one photo for their alma mater.

searles-castle-wedding-nh-indian-christian-reception- party and reception at the castle

With such a beautiful setting and a lovely evening, we had to take advantage for one night photograph in front of the castle. Fortunately, Ayesha and Jon were very happy to oblige. I guess the kiss didn’t hurt our cause.

searles-castle-wedding-nh-indian-christian-reception-1

Such a great day and evening, filled with joy and color and magic. What else would you expect at a castle!

Jailhouse Rockin’ Party: Amanda & Greg

Party! That’s what “part deux” of Amanda and Greg’s wedding is all about. From the cocktail hour on the Liberty Hotel‘s 5th floor catwalk to the dancing going down inside in the ballroom to our own faux-to booth, designed and created by the lovely bride, fun was had by all.

Before Amanda and Greg joined their guests, we had to capture just one image. Love the levels in the Liberty, a great chance to play around with creative portrait ideas.

Cassie & Dan: Destination Home, Part 2

Cassie and Dan’s hometown destination wedding on Martha’s Vineyard was truly picture perfect. From the Chappy rehearsal dinner (photos to come) to the wedding day to the Sunday brunch, Edgartown’s waterviews, white washed buildings and picket fences, and amazing skies provided a gorgeous backdrop for their celebration.

Cherry Blossoms, Views and Dancing

Amy and Phil’s engagement session last spring brought together their passions for each other, for ballroom dance, for MIT, and for the beautiful cities of Cambridge and Boston. On a foggy day (rare for Boston) and with the cherry blossoms showing off their best color, Dave met up with Amy and Phil to capture these portraits for them.
