Combine a beautiful couple, a magical setting and some great mid-summer New England weather, and you get a mystical wedding celebration. Let’s look back at Connie & Mark’s big day at Connecticut’s Mystic Seaport, beginning with that magical dress, which suited our bride to a tee!
Preps began in the early hours off-site and came together at the Seaport, with the help of an attentive group of bridesmaids.
Our bride is good to go!
Meanwhile, the men were doing their thing, getting ready in their own way. Time to go gents!
Groom ready…? Check!
Some final touches before the ceremony commences, including beautiful florals from Pentimento Design, and a last-minute pep talk by the father of the bride.
Looks like he’s spotted his bride!
There she is, accompanied by a beaming dad!
Let’s do this!
Of course they do!
They look pretty damn happy, don’t they?
The seating chart matched the nautical theme perfectly.
As did the wonderfully beachy cake by JCakes.
Emotions were running high post-ceremony and during toasts and other formalities.
May we have this dance?
Before a costume change, the incredible Susan Stripling stole our newlyweds away for a few more breathtaking shots.
Then it was full party mode, led by the talented emcee Erik Schmid and DJ Skillz, of ET Events.
Time for a little mother-groom time.
And a taste of that yummy cake, before partying their brains out on the dance floor!
Time for one last kiss and then off to a lifetime together!
Congratulations Connie and Mark, it was truly an honor to be part of your wedding day!
Easy! Done! Enjoy!
