catie and jon || linden place || bristol, rhode island

Happy New Year everyone! I still have TWO more weddings to share from 2010!

The first one is Catie and Jon’s big day down in Bristol, Rhode Island. I don’t shoot many weddings in Rhode Island, but it is so pretty down there! Even in December, which is saying a lot.

I started with the girls getting ready at the beautiful Linden Place, which was all decked out for Christmas.

Every room had gorgeous furniture and beautiful antiques, I could have spent the whole day just shooting on the second floor!

While I was hanging out with the girls, Meghann met up with Jon and his crew in front of Judge Roy Bean's, a bar where Jon and some of his guys play in a band.

So, the priest seemed to be a pretty relaxed and easy-going guy. However, I never would have guessed that he would use their nicknames - Bunny and Poopy - in the middle of the homily. Clearly, Jon and Catie weren't expecting it either! {and anyone who knows me, knows I love a good series, so here you go....}

Married!!!!!!!

It doesn't really look like it was December and about 35 degrees here, does it?

After getting a few pics by the water, we went back to Linden Place - so pretty!

I love it when a bride and groom really have a good time on the dance floor!!

erin and chris || glen manor house || portsmouth, rhode island

So fun to be blogging another wedding!! I had two in June that I couldn’t blog, so I might have gone a bit overboard with pics on this one to make up for it.

When Erin came into the studio we couldn’t stop chatting! A little about weddings, but also about Hawaii, being a teacher (I used to be!), and running marathons (she has…I want to!). She was a good sport that it was about 98 degrees with 140% humidity on her wedding day. Ok, I might be exaggerating a * little * bit, but it was HOT!!!!!!!!!

Staying cool by whatever means necessary!

I really think Erin's hairdresser should have won some kind of gold medal for this hairstyle, it looked perfect all night long without looking slicked back.

I was so in love with this place! The furniture, the windows, the stairs.....and Erin looked lovely everywhere!!!

The guys were hanging out outside....staying out of view!

I was very lucky to have the super talented Kristin with me, a Rhode Island pro!! She was with the guys who loved getting their picture taken all day. Seriously – they would not stop hamming it up! This is probably the most serious picture of them.

Chris's dad performed the service...

So, after doing a bunch of great pictures in the beautiful gardens, how about some with the ocean??

Erin framed quotes from her students about love and marriage. Adorable.

Did they do the chicken dance? Oh yes they did! I know most people think it's cheesy, but I kind of think it's so cheesy it's cute. I loved it ever since I saw He Said, She Said with Kevin Bacon. I tried my best to find the scene on youtube, but I think that this movie was before youtube’s time! (And yes, I did it at my wedding. Go ahead….laugh it up…)

I also see lots of kissing from the clinking of glasses...but this was a good one! Chris walked across the room and kissed her in a giant dip.
