John and Melissa – Married!!
So once again, I must admit that I was wrong. That I really really loved shooting something I wasn’t sure ahead of time that I would love.
You may recall back in August I shot John and Melissa’s engagement session with my friend Kristina from Kristina Young Photography and fell in love with shooting engagements. This past weekend, the two of us got together again and headed off to Boston and shoot their gorgeous evening wedding! They got ready at the stunning Taj Hotel, married Saturday evening at the beautiful chapel at Old South Church in Boston and then had a reception at the gloriously chic and sexy Mistral restaurant. (I’d tell you what part of Boston all of those were in but I honestly have no clue. Back Bay? Beacon? Yep. No idea.) It was a beautiful, intimate ceremony followed by an awesome crazy party reception. 😉 Kristina and I had so much fun working together and the evening flowed like a dream. (Big kudos to Mistral for a completely flawless reception!) There were a few tears, lots of laughter, surprise trumpeters, an ovation from people outside the church and tons of great music and dancing just to name a few things. Overall it was a beautiful, wonderful day.
Since I am not used to blogging weddings I am going to stop talking now (I know! Unbelievable, right?!?!!) and just show you the pictures. (and make sure to check out K’s as well when they’re up HERE)
So without further ado…John and Melissa’s wedding, just a *few* of my favorites
They had gorgeous flowers – calla lilies all over the place!
I simply adore her expression here
Melissa and her sisters and friends definitely knew how to get down
The beautiful, funny, touching toast from one of her brothers at the reception
One of my absolute favorites and last shots of the night
Congratulations again, John and Melissa!!! Thanks so much for allowing me and Kristina to photograph your beautiful day and night.
