Rosie & Ryan – Stevens Estate at Osgood Hill Wedding

If you haven’t figured it out by now, estate venues are among some of my favorite places to shoot, and the Stevens Estate at Osgood Hill is on the top of my list.  Rosie & Ryan’s wedding was my second event there last year.  They were booking #2 from my St. Patrick’s Day hustle last March.  Who needs drinks anyway? 🙂  It also helped that my sister (who we were out with that night) is best friends with Ryan’s cousin, and we happened to run into him at the bar.  That’s what this business is about, connections and referrals!  Anyway, I was already excited to shoot at the Stevens Estate again, but once I had Rosie & Ryan in for a consult and then their final meeting, I couldn’t wait for their big day.  They are a super sweet and laid back couple that waited until Rosie finished Veterinary school to get married.  Since she was so awesome and works nearby where we live, she is now our pet’s veterinarian too!  I actually had quite a few couples last year that had been together for quite some time before deciding to get married, and I always love hearing their stories, and seeing how excited their friends and family are for the big day to finally happen <3

The estate is beautiful on it’s own but I loved all of Rosie’s details, from her succulent bouquet to her handmade wrapping and decorations for her bridesmaids gifts.  Unfortunately, rain cancelled the outdoor ceremony, but that didn’t stop them from having a sweet ceremony in the reception tent, followed by an awesome reception.  Their families and friends were amazing, and so full of love, excitement and emotion, from the moment her father saw her in her dress for the first time, to everyone dancing and having a great time together all night long.  It was definitely a wedding to remember!
