Fabulous news! We had four full-page photos published in Gala Weddings Magazine. We received the proof and the magazine, and it looks great!

The magazine focuses on the New England region and the brides and grooms who get married in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire and Connecticut. Most of our images are from Becky and Danny’s wedding last summer. They were married at the Chanler at Cliff Walk in Newport.

Here’s Danny looking over his vows before he walks down the aisle…

And here’s Becky with her Dad walking towards the ceremony on the lawn.

The used this one from their portrait session as the lead image for their RI section.

And this one is from Ariana and Jesse’s wedding, used for their lead photo in the VT section.

Then they sprinkled a few more smaller images throughout. The bouquets and table arrangements in this spread are both ours from Becky and Danny’s Newport wedding.

And the mooncake is ours in this inspiration spread of citrus colors; it’s from Krista and Andy’s wedding.

Their suite was decked out in cool blues and warm golds. The period details alluded to the gilded age; it felt as if we had stepped into a palace.

The room’s decor offset Becky’s summery colors of pink and lime perfectly…

as did the ocean.

Becky selected orchids and roses with a few gerbera daisies for her floral touches. I love the modern trend of long grass in her bouquet.

Becky and Danny also included some "green" themes. The grass in the background of the guest welcome table hints at the gift within the seat assignment cards. The paper is actually made with flower seeds and intended to be planted.

The food was prepared by the Spiced Pear Restaurant and Nick Vitale of The Chanler created a menu card for each table setting.

Becky and Danny celebrated with a larger group at Becky’s family home in Connecticut. This gorgeous cake was part of that celebration. She continued the theme of gilded age elegance and her colors of pink and green.

Here’s Becky and Danny in front of her childhood home. Dave had fun playing with this image, hearkening back to the late 1800′s.

Guests enjoyed an all-day affair and withstood the stormy weather with smiles. The entertainment was non-stop: games of badminton, volleyball, soccer, jumping in the pool, and lots of great conversation. They even provided a few props for the other celebration that occurs on July 4.

The tent looked great- decorated with lanterns and lights. They continued the theme of fresh colors of pinks, yellows, and greens.

In the afternoon, Becky and Danny got all dolled up again. Jeanine was there to help with Becky’s prepping.

Just before their introduction, Becky and Danny snuck a kiss.

The rain held off on the wedding day and everyone was thrilled. Alas, they weren’t so lucky for some of the BBQ. Becky and Danny dashed from the house to the tent under this huge umbrella.

And then right into their second first dance. (Their first first dance being at The Chanler.) Have I mentioned how awesome it is that they get to do everything 3 times!

Becky’s dad was so funny during this speech. He brought one of Danny’s friends up to translate for him. Everyone assumed that Danny’s friend would be translating into Chinese for any of Danny’s relatives who might prefer that. Then he started speaking in Chinese. The friend was there to translate into English! Of course there was tons of laughter and appreciative applause. Apparently he did quite a good job, too.

And this pretty much sums up the whole shebang.

Becky and Danny, we are so excited for you to embark on this adventure together. We wish you all the best and have had such a great time getting to know you better. Have a fabulous time at the Banquet this weekend!

You can check out the first two installments of Becky and Danny’s wedding here: part 1 and part 2.

Just in case you are wondering, the broom is a family joke, and we are so glad that Becky’s aunt decorated it and brought it along.

You may recall Becky and Danny got married at The Chanler at Cliff Walk in Newport, Rhode Island. This destination wedding had it all: beautiful location in a great town with an intimate group of friends and family.

When last I wrote, I left off just after the ceremony. During the cocktail hour, we took some portraits of Becky and Danny with their guests. These guys were such a hoot. They didn’t need any encouragement; they had tons of funny ideas!

Following the group shots, we took Becky and Danny on a stroll around the property.

We had absolutely no trouble finding amazing places to shoot.

The festivites got started as Becky and Danny were introduced.

Their nephew listened intently (those are his parents behind him) to one of the speeches.

Danny enjoyed a dance with Becky’s mom.

And Becky stole a hug from Danny’s mom.

As the sun was beginning to set, we captured this. This is the view from their suite.

Then back to the party. Becky’s little nephews could really get down. They were breakdancing all over the place; I don’t know where they learned it, but they definitely knew the moves. Of course, that meant that Becky and Danny’s friends had to put on a show as well.

It was a pretty emotional day for everyone. Becky’s mom shared her love with Becky in this tender moment.

One closing shot….

We really had such an amazing time shooting Becky and Danny’s wedding. Everyone was great.

A huge thank you to the staff at The Chanler. They were outstanding and definitely made the day perfect for Becky and Danny.

There is still one more installment. Check back soon to see pix from the Fourth of July Celebration in Connecticut!
