to catch up and right now I'm back with the wedding ceremony which was beautiful officiated by their friend Gary (who was responsible for getting these two together with the help of his wife Molly)

Not sure that Ashlee or Eric could have been any happier!

Married!!!

Having wisely chosen to do a first look so they could enjoy cocktail hour with their friends and family we took just 2 minutes to take a few "just married" pictures before heading back in for champagne and hors d'oeuvres.

After a most enjoyable cocktail hour with music by the always fabulous Clockwork (they killed it with a packed dancefloor all night too!), guests picked up their escort cards (from Maine-ly New Hampshire in Portsmouth, NH) and made their way inside the Wentworth Ballroom for the wedding reception: 

Stunning wedding cake by Jacques Pastries

Beautiful centerpieces by Jardiniere. Helpful tip - when planning your seating arrangements always have a low centerpiece on your own table - tall centerpieces will block your reactions during the toasts! 

The newlyweds were announced:

Ashlee and Eric went straight into their first dance which was rather fabulously choreographed to "At Last" by Etta James: 

Toasts were up next and it took MOH Alison a little while to compose herself! 

We snuck outside for five minutes of night time pictures!

Back inside Ashlee danced with her proud father:

The dancefloor was officially opened and it was PACKED: 

Congratulations Ashlee & Eric! What an amazing day! It was an absolute honor and pleasure to be your Wentworth Hotel NH wedding photographer! Wishing you both a lifetime of love, laughter, health and happiness!!! Fun fact - the above picture was taken at 10:59pm!

Next up I have a beautiful Arnold Arboretum Engagement session and then a beautiful rustic Maine wedding at Migis Lodge!
