One of the absolute biggest honors for us is when someone in the Boston Wedding industry asks us to photograph their wedding. So, when our very dear friend and industry colleague Michele asked us to capture her wedding to Zack this July, it was an instant yes! The Seaport Hotel Boston was the perfect location for the day from the getting ready to the evening celebration.
We asked Michele to share the inspiration behind her day: “Being a wedding planner and planning your own wedding is challenging and exciting all at the same time. On one hand you have this great wealth of knowledge and experience to use when selecting a venue and vendors, reading through contracts etc., but on the other hand you are seeing things from a completely different perspective for the first time.
I knew right away that I wanted to be somewhere indoors in case of inclement weather, but wanted to create the feel of being outdoors which is where the Lighthouse Room and all of it’s floor to ceiling windows came into play. We added bistro lights and kept a light, whimsical feel to the room to maintain the feeling of an outdoor wedding.
Seeing everything come together that day was truly breathtaking, and being on the other side of things as a bride for the fist time was so much fun. My best advice for my future brides will be to take it all in that day, and make sure you hire good photographers and videographers as that’s the only way to preserve it afterwards!”
Michele thought so many great details that guests were able to enjoy from cupcake and champagne towers to sparklers. After dinner, there was even an ice cream truck parked just outside the Lighthouse Room. Thank you so very much to Michele and Zack for asking us to capture your gorgeous and fun wedding day and to all of the fantastic Boston industry partners (and friends) that helped to make the day so special!
