Jennifer & Mark at the Codman Estate

An oldie but goodie – Jennifer and Mark‘s wedding from last August at the Codman Estate in Lincoln, MA. It was a lovely venue for a low-key, outdoorsy wedding with a historic New England feel. The ceremony was in the garden, in front of a pond filled with water lilies. The small 40-person reception was in a tent and filled with friends, family, and lots and lots of kids.

Katie & Matt

Katie and Matt live in California, but they came all the way back to Cape Cod to have their wedding at Katie’s Grandmother’s house in Brewster. They are one of the sweetest couples I’ve met, so I was thrilled that they were able to celebrate on a gorgeous summer day. They both had a blast, and Katie just had the best expressions ever – as the night wore on, I just couldn’t tear my lens away from her.

Meredith & Dave

Meredith and Dave were married in a lovely, simple ceremony in the Boston Public Garden that completely reflected their personality. The ceremony was small and intimate with views of their new hometown Boston, and their whole day revolved around their friends and family. Here are a few of my favorites!

Ashley & Chris

I simply adored Ashley & Chris’ wedding at the Tower Hill Botanic Garden. It started as one of those days when all the signs point to rain. The sky, the forecast – it just seemed inevitable. But for whatever reason (maybe it was the anti-rain dance my assistant Ryan claimed to have done), the sun broke through and we were all happy campers. Especially since more than half the day was outdoors.

But first off, a few getting ready shots. Here is Ashley, helping one of the adorable flower girls get ready.

I think I’m in love with Ashley’s birdcage veil.

Told you the sun came out! Here’s the ceremony, in the “Secret Garden” at Tower Hill.

Fabulous light!

The reception was held in the greenhouse conservatory.

Homemade honey, harvested from Ashley’s family’s bee farm.

Their first dance was completely choreographed — hysterical!

Meanwhile, the kids’ party was downstairs. . .

Congrats Chris & Ashley!! And thanks so much for the honey!

Anna & Brian

Even though Anna and Brian’s wedding was a few weeks ago, I thought I’d still post a few photos from their lovely, organic wedding at the Smith Barn.

I really admired the way that Anna and Brian tried to keep their wedding simple and ecofriendly. The centerpieces were potted plants, the food was vegetarian, and, how cool is this – Anna’s bouquet is actually an assortment of paper flowers handmade by fair trade artisans in Guatemala.

The wedding also had a lot of Irish elements to it. So in keeping with that, the groom’s cake was an exact replica of a pint of Guinness.

Thanks for letting me share in your day! Hope you guys had a fantastic time in Ireland!
