Laura & Thomas' Country Wedding

Laura met Thomas in France in 1996 while she was vacationing at a family friends house. In 1997, she moved there and shortly after starting college the two started dating. Thomas then ended up moving to the states with Laura and the rest, as you can see below, is histoire!

The wedding took place at Laura's aunt's beautiful country home in Bolton, MA. It could have been in Provence if I didn't know any better with sprays of lavender everywhere, french music, women in big hats speaking french, lots of wine and cheese and a very casual yet elegant overtone. They also incorporated other elements such as the homemade Chuppah, which literally means "that which covers or floats" in Hebrew, to symbolize protection and their new life together.



Yes, that is a red phone booth behind Laura, which is also conveniently a shower.

Here's Thomas working on his vows. Laura had the computer right before him doing the same thing!



That's Thomas' mother with the great hat waiting to walk with him down the isle.




Who ever said being a flower girl or a ring barer was easy?

It's exhausting!









Laura & Thomas did a quick wardrobe change for their surprise first dance!

Brooke & Aaron's Wedding

On Saturday Chris and I had the pleasure of photographing Brook and Aaron's North Shore wedding. The ceremony was heald in Newburyport at Maudslay State Park in the vegetable garden (which didn't seem to have any vegetables at all) and the reception in the back yard of their house in Rowley.

As you look at the photos you might think you're seeing double because there were two sets of twins in the wedding party. Aaron was accompanied by his identical twin brother, David as well as his other brother Troy and Brooke's maitron of honor Cathryn also has a twin who wasn't in the bridal party, but who was the official "floofer" of Brook's dress during the ceremony.






Brooke gave the girls beautiful leaded crystal candle holders as gifts.



Set of twins #1.


Set of twins #2.

That's the best look of the day!

Brooke was very nervous.









The garden was soooooo romantic with lots of beautiful pink roses in bloom.



Mmmmmm...cupcakes!!!
