Marriott Hotel, Keene NH Wedding -- Erin & Will

I've been so incredibly behind on my editing and blogging lately, which I attribute to being in my best friends wedding, flying back to Italy the day after the wedding and Torin surprising me for our anniversary with a trip to Greece (the day after I get back to Italy).. So I would like to deeply, deeply thank my wonderful, amazing clients for being so patient with me while I put my schedule back in order. 

On that note, I do have this wonderful wedding to share with you! Erin and Will were married on May 3rd at the Greek Orthodox Church in Keene, with the reception at the Marriott Hotel in Keene. I took at least 2,000 photos (sometimes I go a little camera happy, whatever) and had the hardest time ever narrowing down to my completely over the top number of 733 photos. I am in love with basically every single photo that I took on their wedding day, and I hope that they are as happy as I am with the end result!

Let's start the day! I arrived at Erin's house to a calm bride (what?). Her hair was done, her make up was flawless and she was walking around trying to figure out what jewelry she wanted to wear. I knew when I took their engagement photos that I would have a laid back couple on my hands, but I didn't know wedding day would run so smoothly. Needless to say my morning with her was perfect. 
I mean seriously, how many other brides can say, "I had free time to take some cute photos of me and my dog"? Probably not many. I think it's safe to say that there aren't too many dogs near wedding day.
I hope you'll notice throughout the day that Erin has this gorgeous, huge, (extremely white, I might add) smile plastered on her face. The same smile that totally captured me while doing their engagement photos. The best part: whenever Will catches sight of it his face lights up. I love them :)

My beloved best friend Casey of Casey Elizabeth Photography spent her morning with the boys, and I don't even think that I could have done a better job. 
 I'm kind of obsessed with this groomsmen shot that Casey got, their faces are priceless.
In Greek weddings there is no, you may now kiss the bride moment, which did throw me for a loop, but their ceremony was so unique the kiss didn't really matter to me. (Plus they did a fair amount of kissing throughout the day anyway.)

Now this bridal party. Oh my goodness. I, generally speaking, love bridal parties because they are a whole bunch of personalities combined into one party. This group of people created the ultimate bridal party. They were silly and their laughter was so contagious that my cheeks were hurting.  
One of my favorite photos of the day, and one of my favorite photos ever taken. 
 Per usual, Casey got some amazing photos of the guys. You'll notice they are hilarious.
 Please just take a minute to notice how gorgeous Erin is. She looks absolutely perfect.
Another obsession of mine for the day, the flowers. They were so perfect. I took about 150 photos of just flowers. They're amazing. 
My favorite part of the day. Couple photos.. Get ready to start smiling.
See what I mean about their smiles? Perfect and contagious. 

My final obsession of the day was the reception set up. I am a sucker for basic decorations, my own wedding the center pieces were just candles and flowers. There is something so beautiful about a simple table setting, and maybe that's because I grew up in a simple town, but that's just what I love. 
Toasts... Can be hit or miss, sometimes they're awesome, sometimes they are terrible, these two were rather memorable, I was laughing pretty hard throughout both.
 You did a wonderful job with the rings Will! She's a very lucky lady! 
And the dancing begins!
So many, "Will you take our picture?" moments throughout the reception, I loved it!
Thank you so much Erin and Will for allowing me to be apart of your day, I can't tell you how much fun I had with you both. Another huge thank you for being so amazingly patient with me and my crazy schedule. You two are completely perfect for one another and I wish you a lifetime of happiness. XOXO
