Nikki & Matt Are Married! {Massachusetts Wedding Photographer}

Nikki and Matt are total soul-mates and their wedding was an absolute celebration of their intense passion and commitment to each other.  Deep emotion poured out in their vows, in their loved ones’ toasts to them, in every kiss and look between them.  It was nothing shore of magical to witness and such a special day to photograph.

Their wedding took place at the rustic and beautiful Camp Kiwannee in Hanson, Massachusetts.  The bride, groom and many of their guests camped out and slept there the night of the wedding and kept the party going with s’mores and games around the campfire late into the night.

Matt & Nikki’s wedding aesthetic was centered around a dreamy astronomy theme of constellations and stars, punctuated with romantic lace, moss and woodsy touches.  Nikki has an absolutely amazing sense of style, and as a small business owner (like myself – kindreds!), her organization and attention to detail in bringing this event together DIY-style with so many personal touches was unbelievably impressive.

All of the decor, food, furniture, etc. was brought in by them and set up by their community of friends and family on site for the weekend.  Their reception dinner featured a finger-licking BBQ buffet and a fun selection of drinks, including signature mocktails, since N + M aren’t drinkers.  The dance floor was so fun and wild thanks to their kick-ass, amazing band (Business Time Rock!!) – they absolutely brought the house down and everyone had a blast.

Other moments, details and highlights: Nikki’s dress reveal to her bridal party and mom (love their reactions), her “first look” with her dad before the ceremony (this a trend I adore, crying dad’s with their daughters? the best), the unique and super-cool hand-fasting during their ceremony, the gazebo just next to the ceremony filled with photos of all of their deceased relatives and ancestors, meant to surround them with their spirits and love as they journey into the future together, and simply how the new husband and wife could not take their eyes off each other for the entire celebration.

Thank you, Nikki & Matt, for trusting me to capture your big day, your love and so many amazing memories!  I absolutely cherish being there and a part of it all …. now for the photographs!
