This past December we had the opportunity to head to the East coast to capture one of the most amazing weddings we have shot to date. Josh and Emily are from Westerly, Rhode Island where they had their ceremony at the local church, from their the bridal party jumped on the party bus where the reception was held at Lake of Isles in Stonington, Connecticut. Here is a look back on their beautiful wedding, and a few of our favorites.
Q: Tell us about your wedding! What was the inspiration behind your day? Did you have a specific theme, style or color palette? Did you incorporate any cultural or religious traditions in any part of your day?
A: I have dreamt of what my wedding was going to be like since I was a little girl. not just the look of the room or the dresses and the flowers but the feeling of not only myself but my guests were going to have. I wanted a warm romantic feeling. A lot of candles! The fireplaces in the main entry way and cocktail hour definitely helped me with that. I didn't want things to match too much and I wanted it to all have this simple elegance about it. The church was most important to me leading up to this day, the first time I would see Josh; where we would exchange our vows, first kiss... that all was really going to set the tone I feel like leading into the evening at the reception. I knew I wanted a violinist and cello player to play music at the church and the cocktail hour since I played the violin myself thanks to my wonderful Dad. With our priest, Fr. Michael Najim, I knew the ceremony was going to be amazing.
