Laura and Brian were married last weekend at the fabulous Willowdale Estate in Topsfield. I first met Laura when we worked together as teachers and I actually met Brian at Laura’s brother’s wedding back in 2008. I loved so many things about this wedding but I especially loved how happy and smiley they were together. Laura planned this wedding for two and half years (yes really) and so all of her details were gorgeous and they ended up with the most amazing comfortable weather for a wedding. Anyway, I have so many flippin’ photos to show you from this wedding, I’m just going to get to them! I am SO HAPPY for you two and I hope you like the sneak peek:)

I love this shot. I really like the simplicity of the dress alone with the commotion going on in the background.
Here’s the dress on its own. Did I mention that Laura’s mother hand made this dress. She and Laura designed it together and the lace on the bodice and on the hem is actually from Laura’s mom’s wedding dress…LOVE!
Laura has chosen a green and orange color scheme and it was beautiful!
The rings.
I’m always a bit jealous that Simon gets to hang out in the back with the bride and her father before she goes down the aisle because he gets shots like this one!
And this one!
…and this one!
Laura and Brian could not have had a more perfect evening. It was perfect in every way and the weather was amazing. They wrote their own vows and I definitely teared up when Laura came down the aisle…and when they came back up. So emotional!
The group!
The guys.
The girls…I love the pockets girlies!
The guys again—they wanted a different shots and Simon got one for them:)
Laura…you are st…st…stunning. Seriously girl…work it out!!!
A few of the beautiful details.
Amazing subtractive light and green doors…yes please.
Yowzers with the perfect sunlight.
The Willowdale Estate is absolutely gorgeous. I knew it would be great but the light and colors and rock texture was beautiful!
I just really liked the light here…it’s gorg.
Hawt Laura!
I loved the pop of red on the front door.
Favorite shot of the day. It was an accident if I’m being honest and I lourrrvvve it!
You’re both cute:)
Get on with your bad selves:)
Love shoe shots.
Everyone in the bridal party had an awesome entrance, equipped with costumes and props. I had to give everyone a look at the awesomsauce that was Laura and Brian’s wedding party.
Introducing…
First dance…I love me some first dance:)
The tent was lit with green and orange lanterns and uplighting (both done by Boston Uplights) and they were amazing!
And dancing…Laura told me she loves my dancing collages, so I had to be sure to give her one:)
