Melissa & Chris' wedding at The Dorrance-Providence

Melissa & Chris' wedding at The Dorrance in Providence, RI

Yes, I know...2 blog posts in 2 days...what the heck is going on?  I'm trying people!!  Ok, now on to Melissa & Chris' awesome wedding at The Dorrance.  Talk about "old world charm".  Those who know me...know that I love architecture.  Well, as you can see by these images, The Dorrance has architecture to spare.  It has a similar feel to The Society Room in Hartford, CT...yet the ornateness (is that a word?) of a Newport Mansion.   Throw in an awesome bride & groom and you have the makings for a spectacular wedding.  Here we go..

Jonathan Edward's Winery Wedding at Jonathan Edwards

Where do I start? Awesome couple, awesome wedding at Jonathan Edwards Winery..awesome day. Kyle is the brother of one of my other favorite grooms Todd. I had the good fortune of getting to know this family when I shot Todd & Christina's wedding back in July of last year. (You may recognize them from the "Love in an Elevator" image that did so well in the last print competition.)Since then, I've felt that I was part of the family, which is truly a pleasure.

This Jonathan Edwards wedding day started at The Mystic Marriott where Laura got ready. The room was flowing with energy and there was excitement in the air. This is one of my favorite parts of the wedding day to photograph. Get a load of Laura's wedding shoes...

On to the wedding ceremony at The Mystic Congregational Church in downtown Mystic, CT. Steeped with charm & history, this old New England style church was the perfect start to a Mystical wedding day filled with character.

Another thing I love to photograph is candids during the receiving line after the wedding ceremony. There are tons of opportunities to capture great wedding images filled with emotion. There is so much going on that I can blend into the crowd.

Talk about character. Can you go wrong with an antique Rolls Royce for your wedding day?

How about getting in that classic car and ending up at Jonathan Edwards Winery? Just when you think it can't get any better. Jonathan Edwards is seriously the perfect backdrop for a CT wedding and is truly one of the gems when it comes to wedding venues in CT.
