From The Bride… Jay and I met in Boston and serendipitously lived down the street from each other when we began dating. We have been inseparable from the moment we met and dated for two years before our engagement on my hometown beach. We experienced New York City together and eventually landed back in Boston to be near our family and friends.

We knew that we wanted to have our wedding by the water but also loved the idea of a city wedding – in came the Boston Harbor Hotel. The Wharf Room’s expansive glass windows brought the harbor, boats, and abundant sunlight into our ceremony and reception. We were so fortunate to have a beautiful, sunny day and were able to spend cocktail hour outdoors on the rotunda overlooking the harbor.

I consider my style classic with a twist. I spent a lot of time carefully curating and coordinating each component of our wedding from the floral arrangements to the signature cocktails to the day of elements; a lot of thought and consideration went into every detail. I used the pale blue from the bridesmaids’ dresses as my inspiration and carried it throughout several aspects of the day.

I always envisioned myself in an elegant, lace wedding dress, and I was so excited to wear the stunning design from Amsale Aberra’s Kenneth Pool collection. The simple, romantic front combined with the dramatic, illusion back and long train was exactly what I had imagined.

Our first look has to be one of my favorite moments of the day. To have a few private minutes to ourselves to take in all that we were about to experience was so special. We were so grateful to have Brighter Lights Media and Sweet Monday Photography to capture the excitement and emotion of our day so beautifully.

Most importantly, we wanted to have fun and enjoy every second. We could not have imagined a more perfect day surrounded by our family and friends and are so appreciative of everyone who made it a truly incredible and memorable celebration!
