Erica was referred to us by Linda at the venue and that makes us very happy! We love working at St. John’s because it is a beautiful space, they offer delicious food and impeccable service.

Who doesn’t love a holiday wedding? Erica and David chose Thanksgiving weekend for their nuptials. At this time the venue is all decked out and looking even better during this time of year.

David and his guys looking so dapper!

Seriously these two are so cute!

Got to get the funky sock picture!

The ladies got all dolled up in Erica’s suite adjacent to the ceremony and wedding reception space.

Love the dress shot!

Really love these special ones between mother and daughter.

Waiting for the bride reveal to all the bridesmaids was super fun!

The ladies were so excited to see Erica in her dress!

It was super fun that my Assistant, Samm and I got to help coordinate this with the photographers. After that was set we went back down to the space to finish set up.

Love this picture with Erica and her two Mom’s! Such love here!

It’s your wedding day so why not have a little fun and be silly !

They were truly a stunning group and Erica has such nice friends!

Now grab a kleenex as Dad sees Erica for the first time as a BRIDE!!

I so love this moment shared between a Daddy and a Daughter…..aww!

Now, we have to knock Husband-to-be’s socks off next!

Yep, she brought him to tears…perfect !!

Ceremony time!

The Chapel at The Inn at St. John’s is always stunning! We have done several weddings here over the years.

Love seeing their happy faces as the New Mr. and Mrs.!!

Cuteness x 3 !

As you can see the families are HUGE Lions and Patriots fans so the ringbearers carried these down the aisle.

Now lets just talk about the reception space for a minute! It looked so amazing with black and silver accents. Even the waitstaff came up to me and was like we rarely see this color combo and they loved it too!

Girls got to have some bling and sparkle!!!

When setting this table up we were wondering how many bottles of wine did they have to drink to make those initials ? LOL hmmm…so worth it of course!

I love when we can carve out enough time to take a few pictures in the event space before guest arrival. This gives the couple a few minutes to see all of the details they have been planning for months finally come to fruition. It’s really a surreal experience but worth it if it can happen.
