Karen & Richie – Cafe Escadrille Wedding

While I’m a big fan of family traditions, I’m not going to lie, I love some of the unexpected and fun things that come along with non-traditional weddings. Karen & Richie kept it easy and both got ready at home, which was super relaxing for everyone. They did stay apart until they were ready to see each other for their first look. They also had a small wedding party, and everyone was at the the house, so that meant the wedding party photos were done before we even left for the venue. Talk about a time saver! Also, being at their home gives me a little bit of insight as to who they are, and some of that can show through in their photos. After getting ready, we headed to Cafe Escadrille for the ceremony and reception.

They had a sweet indoor ceremony followed by an awesome reception, with music provided by 617 Weddings DJ Chris Profenna, complete with choreographed dances! It was a wedding many years in the making, and you could see how excited their family and friends were to be there to celebrate. I’m honored to have been a part of such a special day!

Jana & Jess – Tewksbury Country Club Wedding – September 2015

Last St. Patrick’s Day, my Irish husband wanted to have a big night out, kilt and all. At our second to last bar of the night on our Downtown Beverly bar crawl, he was busy making friends and drinking lots of Guinness. What was I doing, you may ask? Well, naturally I was making connections. I met 2 new potential clients (or in this case, a bridesmaid), and booked both just a couple weeks later! That’s a good night out if you ask me 🙂 Once I met Jana, I was super excited about her Tewksbury Country Club wedding. Once I got to the venue the day of, I was even more excited!

It was bling, bling everywhere! Jana is definitely my kind of bride. Anyone that knows me, knows I like all things sparkly! She bedazzled and rhinestoned everything she possibly could for the wedding, but it was done beautifully. They had an awesome split cake, which represented her and her husband, Jess. She looked gorgeous in her beaded and embroidered gown. They had a sweet ceremony on the bridge out behind the Country Club, and then had an awesome reception back inside, complete with a 617 Weddings DJ & Videographer! Jana had some beautiful moments with her mom, which I loved. As always, the Tewksbury Country Club is an awesome venue too!

And another congratulations goes out, as Jana & Jess are expecting their little girl this summer!
