Stop now and go refill your coffee cup, or grab a beer and strap in for a massive, image filled post chock FULL of pretty. Pretty details, pretty light, pretty color and a beautiful bride! This post is pure craziness- I am not sure my poor little old blog has seen one post quite this big! One of the main reasons is that I am including a comprehensive overview of what we all saw that day- me, Mike and Katie. That’s a lot of pictures to go through and narrow down!!

Some of you may remember Callie and Niels- my New York City engagement shoot a little while back introduced them to many of you. They are so photogenic, and sweet. Not only do I love them- my camera loves them! And their family and friends too, they are just brimming with personality and color.

Their wedding took place at the quaint Webb Barn in Wethersfield CT- a place where Callie’s parents were married about 30 years ago! Callie and her ladies got ready at her families family home, right around the corner from my very own house. They have been long time neighbors of mine- I even coached Callie’s sister Rory in soccer when she was like 11 or 12!

Callie is just beauty personified. You can barely see her face in the mirror, but you just know….

Her dress was one of the most timeless and elegant I have seen. She got it from Camille’s Bridal in West Hartford Center. I just love walking by their shop, they always have the most elegant dresses in the window! Katie and I tag teamed the dress: Katie got close up detail love, and I got the shot on the right

I love the look on her Mom’s face as she gets a look at how beautiful her daughter is all dressed and ready to go!

In their garage they had this car…. I know, right? Well, this very car brought Callie’s grandparents to their wedding! Even better!

So it became a still life for me to shoot my favorite details….

Their home is filled with vintage wedding family photos, so I just had to incorporate them into some shots

Almost ready… Mike grabbed the shot on the right of Callie coming down the stairs

Crazy beautiful flowers, right!! I believe their florist is called Moss Floral but I have to confirm that- she was INCREDIBLE! All photos courtesy of the super duper Katie Slater

The awesome crazy talented Mike Romano shot this of Callie- come ON!!!!

The ladies all got their dresses from J Crew and were they just the prettiest gals on the block!

The flower girls had the sweetest little wreaths

I was just loving the purple

Another Mike Romano shot. And yes that is in FACT a seersucker suit that her Dad is wearing! LOVE that craziness like 100 times over

Callie’s aunt was the officiant- photo by Katie Slater, super sleuth

An overview of the ceremony- right under this beautiful and massive tree

Callie and Niels’ Moms, experienced a variety of emotions during the ceremony

This groomsman played an original composition for Callie and Niels it was amazing

During the ceremony Callie’s brother came up to do what I thought would be a reading. Was I wrong! He had the crowd do a slow snap then sang to them- and had people in the crowd jump up with their lines! It was awesome. Mike grabbed the shot on the left- he is always ready for spontaneous sing alongs!

It’s official once the rings are on, right?

I think it’s when they kiss! Another Mike and C10ike pairing- Mike’s shot is on the left, mine is on the right

A surprise bubble exit!

Right after they are married

The Webb Barn has a great garden, and it felt like everything was in bloom!

This is a nice Mike and C 10ike combo platter number 2- my shot on the left, Mike’s on the right. See we can play nice together

I had to get on the stairs for this perspective- yes I know I am not tall but I have quite a long torso! Which doesn’t mean much when you have short legs.

She is just radiating happiness here!

Two birds, one D3- Mike on the left, Mrs. C 10ike on the right. OK, it was two D3′s

This is the three of us, me, Mike and Katie all playing well with others- here is our cumulative vision of the details at the wedding!

Her parents had their wedding album there to share with their guests

Their cocktail hour was so pretty outside

Their cake was not typical at all- I believe it was Danish – and they had these muppet figures out, looks like they dressed up as them for Halloween! Mike got that shot on the right

I couldn’t narrow it down to just one here: Callie makes the best expressions! Niels’ brother said to call him on his BS during his toast by waving your napkin in the air- and so, Callie calls his bluff during his toast!

Their first dance was sung by one of the most incredible performers I have seen, I have to get his name, he was amazing and I loved every minute of his performance! I want to say their song was ‘These Arms of Mine’ by Otis Redding and I would love a copy of this guys version, it was life changing!!

Their father daughter dance turned into a free for all family dance

This is the second phase of the free for all- I was enjoying the funky colors and light

Mike got this great sequence of Niels’ Dad cutting in to Callie’s dance and their families’ reactions! What a great trio of shots

Another stellar Mike Romano sequence: the mother of the bride tearing it UP to ‘It’s Raining Men’ You heard me.

Mike grabbed a great scene setter here on the left, I tag teamed and got the outside shot. This place is great to shoot in I hope I get back there soon!

Callie and Niels- thank you so so so so much for having us be a part of your day, it was pure magic!

And as always- make sure you check out
