How did you two meet?

Orientation day at Google in Mountain View, California 🙂 We were assigned to the same table (Table 22) and realized we’d both be moving to Austin.

Why did you choose to get married at the location that you did?

My family’s home in Maine has always been a very special place for us (and it doesn’t hurt that it’s such a beautiful location). We love it for ourselves but we also wanted to share the special location with all of our family and friends

Were there any happy surprises that happened at the wedding?

Taylor singing was a total surprise! And the AMAZING moon we got that night! 

What moment sticks out to you above all of the others from the wedding?

We both loved our vows, Taylor singing, and the red moon. I think one other thing is just having our parents be able to give us advice and speak to us. Those are memories that will last much longer than they will 🙂 

Now that the wedding is over, what are you going to do with all of your free time?!

hahaha back to work unfortunately! We did get to spend 2 weeks in Scotland touring all around the Highlands. Otherwise, we are excited to start our lives as a married couple!

Abby & Connor | A Sophisticated Bar Harbor Wedding

How did you two meet?

We met through friends! We have a very close mutual friend who brought us together on a weekend away on Martha’s Vineyard. After that quick weekend together getting to know each other, the rest was history!

Why did you choose to get married at the location that you did?

We knew we wanted a classic, Maine coastal wedding. We looked at a few venues along the Maine coast, but as soon as we saw the BHC, we instantly knew that was the spot! Abby spent her childhood years vacationing with her family in Bar Harbor & we both spent a week there recently with Connor’s family, as well. It’s such a special place!

Were there any happy surprises that happened at the wedding?

Reading Connor’s letter to me the morning of the wedding was so special! Also, the weather! We couldn’t have asked for a better day – especially the surprise sunset at the end of the night!

What moment sticks out to you above all of the others from the wedding?

Right after the ceremony, Connor & I took 10 minutes just to ourselves. We went up to the 2nd floor of the BHC and out onto the small deck overlooking the entire wedding + cocktail hour! That moment was so special and cool to be up above looking down on where the ceremony had just taken place, as well as all of our friends and family!

Now that the wedding is over, what are you going to do with all of your free time?!

We just got back from our honeymoon in Italy! Now it’s on to a very busy and exciting hockey season for Connor so most of our time will be spent in a hockey rink for the next 7-8 months 🙂

How did you two meet?
We met a long time ago in Bethel, ME when we were in high school. Never dated just kind of knew each other through other people. The pandemic reconnected us back in Maine.


Why did you choose to get married at the location that you did?
We wanted a good bit of space did not want to feel cramped.


Were there any happy surprises that happened at the wedding?
I think everything went really as planned having our dog was a nice touch for us
overall.


What moment sticks out to you above all of the others from the wedding?
Our first kiss was really special.


Now that the wedding is over, what are you going to do with all of your free time?!
Be sad that it is over!!! We can’t wait to relive live it through your film!

Carly & Eric | A Breezy Cape Cod Wedding

The breezy Cape Cod wedding celebration of Carly & Eric

—

How did you two meet? We met in college, Carly was a freshman and Eric a junior, we started dating a year later and have been together ever since.

Why did you choose to get married at the location that you did? Chatham is where we got engaged but also Eric grew up a town over in Eastham and the Cape has been such an important part of our journey. We spent so many summers there.

Were there any happy surprises that happened at the wedding? Just excited the weather held up for us! Sandwich between two rainy stormy days and it opened for a sunny day was a huge happy point for us!

What moment sticks out to you above all of the others from the wedding? Eric was so calm, cool, and collected the whole time and for me it just solidified that I married the right person. I was a big ball of anxiety that everything was going wrong and so concerned about it being perfect and he would have moments where he would tell me we were so lucky and blessed to be with all our friends and family and that we found each other. 

Now that the wedding is over, what are you going to do with all of your free time?! Projects around the house and going on with life normally as we have for the last 11 years, ha!! *Spoiler alert: They are expecting a baby boy in February!!
