What. A. Wedding. To. End. Our. 2017. You. Guys.
It’s a two-parter so make sure you read on to part II as soon as you finish with this one! :)
Almost 8ish years ago, Jane was the bridesmaid in a wedding we photographed of a family friend. I really, really loved her and she was such a fun energy, we Facebook friend-ed each other and that was that. Fast forward to December 2017. I was beyond flattered when, during the limo ride to their ceremony, Jane tells me that within ~15 minutes of David proposing, she announced that she knew who their wedding photographers would be! (Spoiler: Us!)
I’m so happy we got this quick trip to Boston and we got to visit snow! When we left Florida it was in the upper 70’s, so it was nice to get a couple genuinely chilly days in so close to Christmas! We both kinda fell in love with Boston, even though we mainly saw it from our hotel room and Lyft car windows. I’m actually a big baby in the cold even though I’m obsessed with snow. It’s sad, really. But in my defense, the weather was in the single digits! We need to come back another time of year, for sure.
Jane and David’s ceremony was held at King’s Chapel, one of the 16 historic sites found on the Freedom Trail. They went on the Freedom Trail on David’s first trip to see Jane in Boston and happened upon the church. Built by the man considered to be America’s first architect, it’s had just a *few* notable attendees, including George Washington, Paul Revere (who even made the church’s bell- it was the last bell he ever made!), and now more importantly, Jane and David and us! <3
Jane and David started their day at Hotel Commonwealth, a luxury hotel with quite a view! ;)
This grin didn’t leave his face allllll day long. This Florida boy loves shooting in the snow! :)
Jane’s BHLDN wedding gown still has me swooning. That beading!! <3
Jane was getting ready in the Fenway Suite at the Commonwealth Hotel and there were so many fun props to shoot the rings! :)
That white tux- swoooooooooon! <3
I think this was my favorite photo of you all day, Jane! That smiiiiile!!! Between that gorgeous beading and her braid, I just wanted to give her a standing ovation all day! :)
It was a *little* too cold to get them outside for photos, but luckily for us, their hotel had floor to ceiling windows overlooking Fenway Park! :)
One of my favorites! :)
Then it was on to the ceremony at King’s Chapel in downtown Boston!! I loved this church so, so much. Just the first line on their website alone, “Pilgrims. Tourists. Worshipers. Music lovers. Historians. Believers, Questioning believers. Doubters. Seekers. Skeptics. You are welcome at King’s Chapel.” <3
LOOK AT THESE AMAZING PEWS.
Loved, loved, loved this officiant!! And they let David ring the Paul Revere Bell after the ceremony! :)
We had to sneak *some* photos at the entrance of the chapel’s 200 year old crypt vault!
And just like that it was reception time! Click here for the rest of Jane and David’s story!! :)
How did I miss in the Instagram preview – King’s Chapel is literally across the street from where I work! So glad you guys had to chance to see a little bit of the best city in the world (horribly biased ;) )
