Groveland Fairways :: St Monica's Church, Methuen, MA :: The Wedding of Lori + Kris (Part II)

Hello! Did you miss the getting ready pictures? If so, you can find them **here**. We're back at St Monica's church for part II of the brilliant wedding ceremony of Lori & Kris and coming up will be the wedding reception at Groveland Fairways.

Kris stood next to his best man at the head of the church and couldn't quite keep still:

Nerves? Anticipation? Excitement? He clasped his hands, then put them behind his back:


The doors of the church opened, the guests stood up, the music played and Lori walked down the aisle on the arm of her father. I love that Lori is looking at Kris and her dad is looking at her mom:


Kris saw Lori and was happy:


The best kind of wedding ceremony features laughter:


Unity candle:


Prayers and blessings:


And by the power vested in me by the state of my blog, I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride:


Lori & Kris paused in the doorway of the church, looked at each other and then Kris gently kissed Lori's forehead. I don't think they even knew I was there:


I really can't tell you how much I love the next pictures as Lori and Kris exited the church as newlyweds. I guess a pictures tells a thousand words but I think there's just one word here. Joy.


I think you should come back tomorrow for pictures at the reception...would you like to see more? Feel free to comment below....

Hyatt Regency Cambridge Wedding Ceremony Pictures :: Neeta + Rich (Part III)

After the getting ready fun which you can catch up on **here** and the super cute first look **here**, we had a little block of time scheduled to take some pictures of the family and wedding party before the wedding ceremony that would take place outside at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Cambridge, MA.

More time to spend on your wedding day with your closest friends and family? More time to enjoy the amazing Indian appetizers at cocktail hour? Relaxed family pictures and fun with the wedding party? Yes please!


Some call me Leah Haydock, epic wedding photographer.
Others call me Leah Haydock, child whisperer:


As guests entered the courtyard of the Hyatt Regency for the wedding ceremony, they were invited to enjoy a glass of Mango lassi:


The music of Alla Breve signaled the start of the wedding ceremony (check out the sheet music on the ipad):


Rich with his brother John, sister Sherrie and groomsman Scott waited patiently:


Neeta walked down the aisle (her beautiful pink bouquet is by My Personal Florist in Reading, MA) and took her place opposite Rich as they prepared to say their vows. Rich looked straight at Neeta:


And Neeta looked right back, with the biggest smile ever:


The wedding ceremony included beautiful personal vows that Neeta and Rich had written themselves, they were heartfelt, touching, funny and very "Neeta & Rich". Special guest Liger watched his parents get married from a window in the hotel, there was laughter and just so much love:


And by the power vested in me by the state of my blog, I pronouce you husband and wife. You may kiss your bride:


I think it's fairly safe to say that this is a picture of extremely happy newlyweds. I am having trouble deciding who looks the most happy:


If you come back tomorrow - not only will there be the most amazing first dance EVER but I'll also link you over to pictures from my second shooter, the most overqualified second shooter ever, that's all I'm saying :) And I'll have a list of all the wonderful vendors who made this wedding the great event it was. My editing speed directly correlates with the number of comments so feel free to talk back...
