Once upon a time, Sue Austin gave birth to a beautiful baby girl named Anne. She dreamed of planning her wedding one day. She pictured her daughter wearing a gorgeous gown and long, flowing veil, fit for a princess.

All of Sue Austin's dreams came true for Anne.

Sue booked Anne's wedding over a year ago so we were dying to meet Anne. We got a sneak peek of her on Snap! Photography's blog, wearing the sassiest skirt and heels, skipping around Castle Island in Boston with her fiance, Tony. We were not disappointed when we met her.
Anne is one of the sweetest, nicest brides we have ever met. She has a smile that lights up any room, the cutest giggle, and was super easy to please. It is no surprise that Tony is smitten with his princess.

Retro and fun are two words to describe Caitlin Chipperfield's 'vibe' for her wedding.
She lucked out with some beautiful fall weather for her Oceancliff affair. Now I have lived in New England my whole life. Why does it still shock me that, in October, I can watch the Patriots playing in the snow one day and then our bride can get married outside in Newport two weeks later?
Courtesy of our friends at Snap! Photography, here is what a ceremony looks like at Oceancliff...well, minus the guests wearing summer attire. I think it was still too cool for that.

I bet Caitlin never dreamed that her ceremony could be outside.

Brides must really love Rhode Island. Kate Hunter came all the way from California to get married. I think Kate just really loves her fiance, whose family lives here. Her mom, Nadine, did a lot of the organizing for Kate. Come to think of it, I never did get to meet the mom behind the magic....hmph.

You know a bride is going to be nice when her last name is Niece.
And as an aside, am I the only person who still has to say to myself, 'i' before 'e' , except after 'c' or when sounding like 'neighbor' or 'whey' when typing a ie/ei word? I hope not because then I will be embarrassed.

Sarah Gordon, a Barrington native, decided to come back to her roots for her wedding. Sarah is now a Bostonian (not to be confused with BRISTOLian, a Bristol native, born and raised).
Her wedding was at the Rhode Island Country Club. This location is not your typical country club on a golf course--it overlooks the water, showing off some seriously beautiful sunsets. I'm told if you grew up in the East Bay area, you always crave the ocean so it's only fitting that Sarah came back for her big day.

Kana Okano called us a month ago to see if we could make her gorgeous on her wedding day. Even though September has become our busiest wedding month, we said, "of course!"
With a name as exotic and unique as Kana Okano, the mystery was too alluring.
Kana's wedding was at Linden Place, a beautiful historic mansion in Bristol with gorgeous grounds.

Cristina Northcutt had a fantastic bunch a girls surrounding her on her wedding day. All 8 of them decided to get "celebrity treatment" at New Leaf...hair and make up for all--yipee! We love when that happens because everyone seems to look and feel so good when they leave. You can always seem to tell when a woman feels pretty...it's that whole confidence thing. It's amazing what some lip gloss, hairspray and a few bobby pins can do for a girl. The best is when you don't even have to stress out about doing your hair and make up yourself, then you really feel like J-Lo in the chair!

Do you know when you meet someone and you feel like you have known her forever? Well, that's how we felt about our bride Jonah Neagle. I bet the minute her fiance met her, he was smitten too.
