The first wedding of 2012 turned out to be an absolutely beautiful spring day, and I was so thrilled to photograph Quinn and Richard’s wedding in Providence. My day started out at the Renaissance Hotel where the bride and her girls were all getting ready. I grabbed some detail shots, including these adorable blue shoes that the bride wore and this cute little flask (which came in handy to calm some of those pre-ceremony jitters on the way to the wedding!)
The bride’s brother arrived just after she had finished getting dressed, and it was just such an amazing moment!
Finally some last minute details and the bride was ready to go. She was absolutely stunning!
The bride had mentioned that she wanted to get a photo like the cover of the Bridesmaids movie. I thought it was such a fun idea, and when we found this wall painted to look like graffiti in the Temple Restaurant at the Renaissance Hotel, we knew this was the perfect spot!
While I was busy taking photos with the girls, the very talented
Jaclyn Lombardo met with the groomsmen to grab a few photos as well. Unfortunately, the groom was having a few issues tying the bow tie, but thanks to modern technology and a quick You Tube tutorial, a wardrobe catastrophe was averted!
The bride really wanted to capture the look on the groom’s face as she was walking down the aisle. I think this says it all.
The ceremony was held at the First Unitarian Church on Benevolant Street. Jaclyn was able to go up into the balcony to get this stunning shot. I thought it was a very beautiful and airy church.
The happy newly-married couple as they are exiting the church. This is always one of my favorite photos because of the pure joy on the couple’s faces.
Following the ceremony, we headed over to the State House for some portraits before the reception. The weather forecasted afternoon thunderstorms, but there were none in sight on this picture perfect day.
I seriously wanted to eat the candy dots on this wedding cake!! It looked so delicious! From
Wright’s Dairy Farm – one of my favorites!
“For the first time as husband and wife…”
Beautiful speeches from the best man and maid of honor.
And a surprise song from the bride’s great aunt. It was a very sweet moment!
The bride and groom snuck outside for a quick photo in front of the state house, which looked beautiful with the lights shining on it. The clouds were also nice and dramatic!!
And the celebration was underway! This is the second time I’ve photographed a reception that was emceed by
Just Juli Events, and neither one has disappointed!! She is seriously so much fun and she does a fantastic job getting the crowd going!
