Once again, I am back-blogging great weddings that I didn’t get a chance to post in the heat of last year’s season. Tina & Brian were married at Regatta Place in September. Beautiful Labor Day weekend weather, beautiful flowers by Stoneblossom, navy & pink everywhere, great speeches, wonderful families, off-the-hook-dance-party….it’s wedding perfection!

Susanne and Jerry are married!!

Yay!!!! My beautiful Susanne! I’ve known Susanne through the industry as long as I’ve been in business. Of course, it was a huge honor when she invited me to photograph her wedding. Susanne has a big & vibrant personality as you’ll see in a second. I was so excited to see her details & planning. Susanne surprised Jerry with a groom’s cake of Fenway Park complete with the score board being their wedding date! So fun. Take a look at the blue starfish Susanne worked really hard on. I read about many Saturdays spent painting starfish on Susanne’s Facebook profile!!! Isn’t wedding planning fun? =)

I wish I could post a clip of the beautiful message Susanne left me on my voicemail, because it totally made my day, but here is her email instead:

“I am completely overwhelmed–I pulled out at tissue : ) Jerry loved them too : ) Thank you a million times over–you captured everything and LOVE the music Luke gave you!! I am very grateful for all of your help : )LOVE YOU!!!

A little background on this series…It was supposed to rain like crazy on Susanne’s day. So she bought wellies from JCrew and a white umbrella. When I arrived at her & Jerry’s home, it was 75 degrees without a cloud in the sky. Perfect! So we went outside and mocked the weather report briefly!

This is so SUSANNE! I love it.

Another series….I love series. Susanne & her beautiful mom having a moment after Susanne got into her dress. That’s usually a big moment right after the bride is completely dressed and she sees herself or her family sees her for the first time. I call it the “becoming the bride” moment.

A special thanks to: Luke of Luke’s DJ (Click here for his site)
Luke mixed 2 songs together for Susanne & Jerry’s first dance and was nice enough to pass the track to me. When the music changes in the slideshow, the photo you’ll see is actually Susanne’s reaction to the music changing during the first dance on her wedding day. Isn’t that cool? I did that on purpose! I was so proud of myself =) Thanks, Luke!
