A New Bern wedding: Linda & Dennis

It was hot hot hot, but Linda and Dennis didn't let it bother them. Surrounded by good friends, good food and lots of laughs, it was a truly remarkable wedding. Of course, with Rachel Munro from Bridal by the Sea at the helm, how could it not? Jonathan and Renee trekked to the coast and had the pleasure of photographing two people very much in love - with the added bonus of working with Without Walls Productions. We can't wait to see the video since this bridal party had a choreographed dance to "Call Me Maybe" - Dennis was the ring leader and he is a natural! Here are some of our faves! Enjoy!

a bride and groom should always get free ice cream, right?

Ali Smith's cake was as delicious as it was beautiful...











The florals from Tildy Design complemented everything...

As Red Sox fans, we have to turn a blind eye sometimes...







If you think you can dj a wedding with just an ipod, think again. DJ Bob Perry was a master mixer!






Thanks guys!

River Dunes Beach Wedding: Rachel & Brad

Talk about meant to be... Well, of course Rachel and Brad are meant to be, as you can see from the following post. But when they were looking for a wedding photographer, Rachel found our work online and really connected with it. Then, during a stay at The Proximity Hotel (where they got engaged!) Rachel reached into the pocket of her robe, and in it found... our card! Well, if that's not a sign, we are not sure what is! She made the call and we were able to capture their beautiful day.

And what can we say about Rachael and Brad's lovely wedding at River Dunes? It was such a wonderful event - we are so happy to have been a part of it. Jonathan and Ellen had a great time with the happy couple - everything was beautifully planned and well thought out. Rachel looked beautiful; Brad was dashing, and their laid-back style made for a fantastic wedding day. Here are some of our favorites. Enjoy!
