One of my favorite weddings of the…ever!!! Danielle and John’s seaside wedding at the Saybrook Point Inn in Old Saybrook, CT was one of the most outwardly emotional, colorful, and just plain old wonderful days ever. Ever! Danielle and I had only communicated on the phone so I was in for quite a treat when I finally met her face to face… we were instant friends, and felt like we had known each other for ever. She is open, loving and one of the sweetest women I have ever met. And John? Well, he was not sitting idle in anyone’s shadow, let me tell you! Not only was he incredibly handsome, but he was sweet and goofy and funny all rolled into one! plus they both love shoes so they had me there too!
The vendor list was the proverbial cherry on the top of the biggest, loveliest sundae I could imagine:
Jubilee Events for event design and day of coordination!
The White Dress by the Shore for the Billie Dress, one of my favorite wedding dresses EVER!
and the stunning, romantic and dreamy floral design from Elizabeth of Blush….
Some details of this amazing dress…! This texture is insane
The florals, thanks to Rebecca Hales for snagging the two shots on the right!
I love the gift giving portion of weddings, it’s always nice to see their reactions! Katie got the shot of John
Her shoes were part crazy cool color and part how is she going to walk in these?? for me! Never fear Danielle floated like a butterfly in these!
Danielle and John’s sisters were so close… there was emotion to spare
Talk about having a photographic crush on someone…. my God I just about wanted to sneak Danielle’s 92 year old grandmother home with me! She was beautiful and full of energy!
Really? How gorgeous is this man!? And his crazy flower…. I would normally be all over fixing that but I was totally distracted!
Their first look!! OK, ok, this is a post in and of itself….. But seriously! If you want to attend your cocktail hour and your ceremony and reception are at the same place…. then DO IT!!!! You get to relax, cuddle your guests and family and have a stress-free time!! Just watch!
Me and Katie tag teamed this one here she’s on the left I’m do-si-doing on the right
This combo makes me so happy…! ok I’ll let you all look and stop commenting!
Right??! Holy adorable
Not to be out done by her grandmother, Danielle’s Mom was another day of favorite for me! She and I clicked right away and I would have snuck her home with me too!! How beautiful are these women????!!!
Beth from Blush really outdid herself here!
A little J Crew ‘activity’ in the hair!!!! And the dresses were J Crew as well
Katie Slater snagged the ladies pictures below!!
Back in the suite we waited for the guests to arrive… and I just could NOT help myself. I had to photograph Danielle more!
See what I’m saying?? Look how filled with emotion John’s face is as he watches her Dad walk her down to him… and he JUST saw her for their first look!
You just can’t recreate this moment, no matter what. It’s all it’s own!
The details were amazing, stunning, fabulous! Jubilee Events to the MAX times infinity!!
Katie Slater detail duo
Another Carla /Katie detail jam for the next two!
Katie Slater absolutely KILLED this reception!
See, when I pick images for my posts, I am looking soley at images that grab me, not at who shot what! It’s not about me and my ego, it’s about presenting the best images to our clients and potential clients that I can!
Although I’d be lying if I didn’t secretly hope all the best ones were mine! But Mami got spanked here by the Mrs. and I am bowing down here to the awesome awesome Katie Slater!!!
See what I’m saying? Beautiful!
Danielle’s brothers were well spoken (they both gave emotional, heart felt and funny toasts) and incredible dancers
Honestly!! Thank you to the Seaton and Shea families for opening up their hearts to us all on such a special day! It was amazing!
XOXOXO
