Oh how do we love Linden Place, let us count the ways! Megan and Travis truly knocked our socks off with their perfectly romantic styling of the already stunning mansion. Part of the allure of Megan is that she doesn’t let her beauty define her. She is a down to earth, incredibly lighthearted woman whose smile lights up the room. When Travis saw her for their first look he was visibly blown away. Wearing a strapless, lace Anne Barge gown and Badgley Mischka heels, Megan was a vision to behold. A color pallet of neutral whites and blush pinks and was carried through from the bridesmaids’ dresses, to the incredible florals by Greenlion Design, to the tablescapes in the Carriage House Ballroom. Guests were witness to an outdoor ceremony followed by cocktail hour in the East Rose Garden surrounded by the sweet sounds of a string trio. Vintage lanterns hung in the trees while family and friends noshed on delicacies cooked up by the fine folks at Russell Morin Catering and enjoyed the most polished game of corn hole ever. The carriage house was styled with thousands of twinkle lights creating a warm glow overhead while sequined, chevron linens and exquisite flowers in found vessels adorned the dinner tables. Before and after dinner Splash! performed for the guests and we got to see how elegance turns rowdy with the proper music! The entire day had a graceful vibe inspired by Megan and Travis’ effortless love. To share in this day was a heartwarming experience and we are nothing short of thankful!

One of the perks of our job is getting to be a tourist in our own state. It’s awesome. Many times we find ourselves on location for a photo shoot where we wouldn’t ordinarily visit. Kaitlin and Ryan chose Water Place Park and the Rhode Island State House. One fun fact about our state house is that it has the fourth-largest self-supporting marble dome in the world. In the WORLD! Every child who grew up in this state learns that fact and has at least one field trip where they marvel looking up at the dome and whispers of “fourth largest unsupported dome in the world” can be heard all around.  So, to go there with our cameras and the vibrancy of Kaitlin and Ryan was a great treat. This wonderful couple has a joie de vivre which can be seen and felt in their portraits. Kaitlin is a classic beauty and together she and Ryan make a most lovely couple. This was a wonderful day that will be remembered for a long, long time. XO

At first glance Rebekah and Justin are a beautiful, young couple in love. Which is absolutely true. But what you can’t see, not until you spend some time with them, is that they are incredibly fun and WILD! When we first arrived at Rebekah’s room before the ceremony we were greeted by life-sized cardboard photographs of the couple’s beloved dogs. Since they had to stay behind in Colorado, Rebekah’s mother had the standees made so they could be part of the ceremony. This let us know right off the bat that nobody was taking themselves too seriously. That’s not to say that this wedding at the Hyatt Regency in Newport wasn’t decked out. From Rebekah’s gorgeous Galina Signature gown, to the John Orton flowers, and even the whimsical socks that the groom and groomsmen had on, every detail was spot on. It was clear that Rebekah had an incredible wedding planner. Her mother, Liz.  Rebekah and Justin reside in Colorado so Liz orchestrated this amazing affair with style and grace and she was such a pleasure to work with. Now back to their wild side. We heard whispers that Justin’s side of the family pulls a prank at every family wedding so we couldn’t wait to find out what it was! Turns out they had tiny footballs made with the couple’s name on them and passed them out to all of the guests prior to the ceremony. The instructions were to throw them at Rebekah and Justin during the recessional. It went off without a hitch and we have the pictures to prove it! Once Rebekah let down her Rapunzel hair the party was on. At one point during the reception Rebekah was officially inducted as an “outlaw” in an elaborate skit that included camouflaged ties for the men and sashes for the women. We can only imagine a lifetime of love, fun, and of course pranks, for Rebekah and Justin. Congratulations!
