Josh was hard at work perfecting the vows he'd be making to Haley later that day:

Final touches to Haley's make up:

Haley's sister and maid of honor Molly helped her with her jewelry and a big hug:

Haley attempted her first bow tie tying for her father. I have been at a number of weddings with bow tie issues recently, I think I might put learning to tie one on my to-do list.

Haley and Josh decided to do a first look so they could thoroughly enjoy their party after the ceremony vs. spending cocktail hour taking pictures. Haley was nervous making her way to Josh. Loving Josh's expression seeing Haley for the first time. It was so sweet to see how happy Haley and Josh were to see each other and how tightly Josh held Haley:



As a little girl, Haley always imagined getting married at the family home where they vacationed:


Super stylish wedding party


The oceanfront ceremony site. Chuppah (and all of the beautiful flowers you'll see later) by the talented Sayles Livingston Flowers

Guests arrived to cocktails and string music (play close attention to the name of music being played, it's a clue about the big surprise later)


With a final kiss for her father Haley and Josh were married. The personal vows were heartfelt with sincere promises and funny with references to late night ice cream runs. You can't help but smile when you see the way these two look at each other and laugh with each other. A big thanks to the awesome Sarah who shot alongside me for the day:









Guests were treated to the most amazing food by The Catered Affair - one of my favorite catering companies. Hello adorable little pink striped cones of crispy fried clams!











You know how at some weddings the guests do that thing where they clink their glasses to get the couple to kiss? Haley and Josh didn't need any prompting :) They pretty much kissed their way through dinner and dancing :)

Most excellent toasts:

I kind of want to get married again just to do the Hora



Guests enjoyed a delicious dinner by The Catered Affair:

Parent dances:




Haley's father, Dr Stifler then had a surprise announcement, check out Haley & Josh's reactions:


What was the surprise you ask? Oh, just a barge full of fireworks. Sarah got this great wide shot from the balcony:








How much fun was that? Haley & Josh - what an amazing day! Your families were so welcoming and your friends were so much fun. Congratulations on your marriage, wishing you both continued laughter, love and late night ice cream! Thank you for choosing me as your wedding photographer!
