Andrea & Steve :: Boston Harbor Hotel Boston, MA

Andrea and Steve met me on Martha’s Vineyard last fall for a playful afternoon of shooting for their engagement session.. I always love this time as I get to hear all the details of their relationship and really see how they interact and react to one another :) Andrea will go down as one of my favorite brides this season.. as she emailed me months prior to the event to let me know they were declaring their ceremony “unplugged” not allowing phones, pictures or video other then their professionals… OH MY!!! A ceremony I didn’t have to struggle watching iPhones pop out in the aisle! LOVE YOU ANDREA!!!!!

Sweet Guest tree…but WAIT check out the BLACK dance floor below!

Some venues have a wooden dance floor.. but adding such a contrasting & dramatic element really makes & made a statement!!

I was just in a consultation this morning discussing how I LOVE when couples do the “family frames” display at events showcasing their parents own wedding images and/or grandparents.. oh the styles we can laugh at now but just love seeing how the times change and knowing perhaps one day one of our images will be on that piano too for generations to enjoy.. knowing Andrea’s classic taste she’s safe from any laughs too!!

I send out multiple “surveys” to client through the planning process and one of my favorites is the initial one asking what the basic plans are so far. I’m always amused reading these the day of the actual events and then seeing what changes.. in Andrea’s case, she knew what she wanted!

Q. We’d love to know more about your wedding plans, especially what you’re doing to make your wedding special or unique for you. Tell us what you envision your ideal wedding to be like. We love details, so don’t by shy!

Andrea. We are having a formal city wedding in Boston. I’ve had my eye on the Boston Harbor Hotel for years….my fiance and I live in the North End of Boston and we frequently walk along the waterfront in the summer. We usually pass by the Boston Harbor Hotel and I ALWAYS have to look through the window at the wedding being set up inside. I love the reception venue because it has a water view as well as a city view. I’m in love with the rotunda for cocktails – city and water view.

I’m hoping to have a formal, yet modern style to the wedding. I imagine navy pintuck linens with silver chiavari chairs and white flowers. I would love to do uplighting and have a black dance floor, but we’ll see if thats in the budget!
