The Log Cabin / Wedding / Talia & Lindsay

“There is nothing on earth more beautiful to me than your smile…no sound sweeter than your laughter…no pleasure greater than holding you in my arms. I realized today that I could never live without you, stubborn little hellion that you are. In this life and the next, you’re my only hope of happiness. Tell me, dearest love…how can you have reached so far inside my heart?”

I read this and thought of Talia’s love for Lindsay.  You can just see the love rolling off these two in every image I took.  What an amazing day with these two beautiful souls.  So full of love and friendship that it makes you yearn for that type of all consuming love.  Congratulations to both of you , and yes Lindsay, you have indeed married your Disney Princess!

Willets Hallowell / Wedding / Donald & Amanda

“Sharing the fun of fishing turns strangers into friends in a few hours. Whether you sit with native fishermen in their boat and fish with nets and lines or dive under the sea with them – they will lead you to the haunts of the specimens you desire and you could not find yourself in safer and more enjoyable company.”

So fishing it is Donald & Amanda.  You have made the “BIG” catch with each other.  Wishing you a lifetime of happiness and some good fishing holes:)

Springfield Country Club / Wedding / Phillip & Lauren

“Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope.”

Lauren & Phillip had a beautiful catholic ceremony at Saint Cecilia’s in Wilbraham.  They were surrounded by family and friends on a spectacular June day. So much love, music and joy were evident as these two young people joined themselves in the presence of God in holy matrimony.  I was so humbled by one particular part of their ceremony as well as the monsignor who officiated the ceremony.  They chose to say their vows with their hands placed over the cross that  would hang above their bed.  I don’t often talk about religion or faith, but this was truly spectacular.  Their faith will be a huge part of their married life and a true blessing in their relationship.  I wish them both every joy as they begin their married life.

Eric Carle Museum / Wedding / Cliff & Zevi

“Two Trees
A portion of your soul has been
entwined with mine
A gentle kind of togetherness, while
separately we stand.
As two trees deeply rooted in
separate plots of ground,
While their topmost branches
come together,
Forming a miracle of lace
against the heavens.”

Cliff & Zevi had a beautiful Jewish ceremony in one of my favorite temples. I thought this quote fitting for such a blessed occasion.  A wedding filled with family, much love and a ton of RED was a day  that truly stood out.  Wishing you and Samuel every blessing as you start your married life as a family together. xo

Maneeley’s / Wedding / Jason & Crystal

“You’ll learn, as you get older, that rules are made to be broken. Be bold enough to live life on your terms, and never, ever apologize for it. Go against the grain, refuse to conform, take the road less traveled instead of the well-beaten path. Laugh in the face of adversity, and leap before you look. Dance as though EVERYBODY is watching. March to the beat of your own drummer. And stubbornly refuse to fit in.”

Oh my gosh, this quote totally describes how I see Jason and Crystal’s relationship.  They are so much fun, vivacious and march to the beat of their own drum.  From the pink stool for the kiss, the rap on Jason’s head from Crystal after their vows, the silly faces that they share with one another and the good humor that is such a part of their relationship, they are just the most fun loving couple ever! I see so many roads filled with love and laughter for this wonderful couple.  We wish you many, many years of joy and happiness as you begin your marriage to one another. xo

The Munich House, Chicopee / Wedding / Tina & Matt

A smile starts on the lips, a grin spreads to the eyes, a chuckle comes from the belly; but a good laugh bursts forth from the soul, overflows, and bubbles all around. — Carolyn Birmingham

Tina and Matt spent the day smiling and laughing this past Saturday, the day that they exchanged their wedding vows.  Even the religious ceremony was full of smiles and laughter.  I can’t think of two people that I have seen smile or laugh more on their wedding day.  My heart was so happy to see a couple having just so much fun together and having so much joy bubble all around them.  May your lives continue to be full of life and laughter as you start your married life. And, as always, sprinkled with a healthy dose of my fairy dust!

Chez Josef / Wedding / Kyle & Kim

“Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet.”
– Plato

Kim you stole the heart of the little boy I remember from down the street.  I loved this quote because it so exemplifies the love Kyle has for you as shown in the song he had recorded for you to play on your wedding day. Clearly, your hearts both now sing the same song. What a beautiful day surrounded by so much love and support.  The angels were in attendance as well as your mother Kyle.  I am sure everyone felt her presence.  Continue to hold hands and whisper songs from your hearts as you start on your married journey together.  And as always, we can’t forget, sprinkled with the little magic dust I spread at every wedding xoxo
