Private Estate Wedding on Boston's North Shore

It’s always a treat to photograph a wedding on my “home turf”, here on the historic North Shore of Massachusetts. It’s even more exciting to work with couples who also share a special connection to this coastal part of the state. When Cari & Cam contacted me to share details about their family centered wedding celebration hosted at a gorgeous private estate here on the North Shore I was thrilled. Full of charm and beautifully decorated, the expansive property offered a unique experience to Cari & Cam’s guests, many who were traveling from across the country to celebrate with the couple.

Expertly designing and executing the day was the team behind Prepped and Primped. Hues of creams, blues and greens accented the lush garden landscape of the estate. Guests danced the night away under a clear tent with perfect views of the starry sky above. Cari & Cam made their grand exit in a family friend’s vintage convertible - it was truly a night to remember!

Viewpoint Hotel, A Maine Seacoast Wedding

Jess & Phil chose the Viewpoint Hotel to host their wedding celebration with it’s sweeping view of the Maine coastline and the iconic Nubble Lighthouse in the distance. As Mainers themselves and Phil a commercial fisherman, the Maine coast plays in important role in their every day lives. How special then to incorporate the beauty of the seacoast as the backdrop to one of their most cherished days as a couple.

Hues of dusty blue and cream with nods to Maine anchored Jess & Phil's day. But what made their wedding special was the palpable joy felt throughout the day which Jess and Phil fully embraced, a true gift to start the new chapter of their life together.

Connemara House Wedding

Tucked away in the rolling farmlands on the North Shore of Boston sits Connemara House. Driving up to the main estate feels like stepping back in time and a world away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. This privacy and tranquility of Connemara House is what just what drew Mary and Ty to select the estate to host their wedding. 

Taking full advantage of the sprawling grounds, Mary & Ty hosted their entire celebration from start to finish at Connemara - both getting ready in the main house, choosing their first look among the gardens and dancing the night away under a sailcloth tent. 

Relaxed elegance was the goal. With delicate floral arrangements, custom sips from Cisco Brewery and casual seating for guests along the lawns - it was exactly what Mary & Ty envisioned for the start of their new adventure as husband and wife.

Private Estate Wedding in South Dartmouth with

South Dartmouth, Salter’s Point in particular, holds a dear place in Cat’s heart. After all, this special slice of coastal Massachusetts has been in her family for over 3 generations and has become an incredibly important part of her family’s history - and now with Tommy.

When it came time to select the location for their wedding day it was an easy choice to choose Salter’s Point. An intimate ceremony at a family church, cocktail hour on the lawn overlooking Buzzards Bay, an epic night of dancing under the stars. Their weekend was thoughtfully planned to share in all that Salter’s Point has to offer.

Cat and Tommy made it a point to carve out time on their wedding day to head to the water at sun down. While it was slightly out of the way, they knew that images at golden hour, were important and worth the time. With the harbor and sneak peek at their reception sight behind them, those images reflected everything about the wedding celebration all that makes this place special to them.

Beauport Hotel Wedding

Christie & Crittie were one of the many couples who found themselves rethinking their wedding plans when the pandemic hit in 2020. Instead of cancelling all together they decided to host a micro wedding at Misselwood in the fall of 2002, pushing off the party at the Beauport Hotel until the following September.

While their path to the wedding day might have taken a few turns they did not expect, each event was uniquely special and meaningful to Christie and Crittie. When it was time for the big party last fall, they were ready to get the party started! And we were thrilled to capture each epic moment!

Summer Wedding at Turner Hill with Prepped & Primped

Matt & Katie’s North Shore wedding was one for the books - on a perfect summer day they finally tied the knot in a personal ceremony in Marblehead, after waiting over two years for the moment to arrive. Thanks to the pandemic, their original plans had to be postponed but when the day finally came, Matt and Katie along with their loved ones, were beyond ready to celebrate this special couple.

Lovers of golf, they selected Turner Hill for is historic and charming estate nestled amongst on of the best golf courses on the North Shore. They leaned heavily into a classic & timeless style with preppy, nautical touches throughout, tying back to the coastal vibe of the North Shore.

For me, the BEST part of their day with the endless smiles. From the moment the day began to the final song on the dance floor, Matt & Katie could not keep their joy contained. Their warm and inviting personalities ensured everyone felt at ease and ready to celebrate, making sure each person who attended felt loved. They embraced their day with unreserved joy and appreciation.

Costal Maine Engagement Photos

Phil is a Maine fisherman and the coast plays an important role in Jess & Phil’s relationship. And being the dog owners of one rambunctious Husky, they spend much of their time outdoors in the Pine Tree State, enjoying all that Maine has to offer, including its beautiful coastlines.

One of their favorite spots, Fort Foster, is a place they visit often usually with their pup Boon and often early in the morning. They love the diversity of the landscape and the every changing nature of the coast as the tide ebbs and flows. This is a place that they feel right at home and made for the perfect backdrop for their engagement session.

Fittingly, we met early in the morning - just like they do every. day to walk their pup Boon through this coastal Maine park. With the fort ruins, rocky coast and wooded forest, Fort Foster offered just a little bit of everything for their session, including some epic landscapes. What can be better?!

These photos are beautiful! I’m obsessed and can’t even pick favorites there are so many I love. Thank you so much for capturing these moments, we cannot wait for the big day!

Connemara House Tospfield, Engagement Photos

After falling in love with the private feel and location of Connemara House in Topsfield, Mary & Ty knew that this beautiful and historic estate on the North Shore of Massachusetts was the perfect place to host their wedding. Atop a field overlooking a field of apple trees, Connemara offers pristine manicured grounds and gorgeous views of the surrounding valley. For their engagement session, Mary & Ty wanted to celebrate their wedding location and chose to leisurely explore the house grounds on a beautiful spring evening.

Captured by our talented associate photographer Lauren, Mary & Ty’s engagement session was the epitome of spring. The estate’s expansive selection of fruit trees were just in bloom and the main house painted in stately white, stood as a beacon amongst the lush green landscape. Having fallen in love with the historic property, Mary & Ty felt right at home on the Adirondack chairs that overlooked the flowering trees. And who wouldn’t love a quiet moment alone amongst such beauty?

Elegant Spring Wedding at The Crane Estate

Originally from the Midwest, Mary Beth & James, envisioned their wedding day to be one of bringing their two families together all while sharing with them the unique beauty that is the North Shore of Massachusetts. The Crane Estate with its historic mansion, manicured gardens and sweeping view of Crane Beach, offered their guests a luxurious experience all while introducing them the beauty that is New England in the summer.

Elegant Crane Estate Wedding

James & Mary Beth’s black tie affair filled was with meaningful touches throughout - such as the Omega Moonwatch from Radcliffe Jewelers gifted to the groom, the heartfelt toasts shared by their parents or the heirloom engagement ring purchased at the same store James’s parents purchased their own engagement ring years before.

Mary Beth chose a palette of forrest green to accent the day, which complimented the gorgeous natural backdrop of the Crane Estate. Soft florals filled the tented reception while a delicious array of passed hors d'oeuvres entertained guests during cocktail hour.

As one who is from New England may know, weather is always variable, no matter the time of year. So when presented with a beautiful day, one does not take it for granted. Mary Beth & James has a gorgeous spring day, punctuated with a cotton candy pink sunset - the perfect ending to a perfect day.

Coastal Wedding with Kate Murtaugh Events

Brittany dreamed of a wedding day filled with pink details, as bright and cheery as her radiant personality. Hues of rose gold, peach pink, and white accented Mateusz & Brittany’s coastal New England celebration, expertly designed and executed by Kate Murtaugh Events & Design . Brittany shared with me before the wedding that her “dream day is a fun lighthearted party that we can enjoy and be present for.” I think Brit and Mateusz acheived just that.

After a morning of primp and pampering Brittany & Mateusz invited their guests to an intimate ceremony, where they shared their emotional and heartfelt vows, supported by their closed loved ones. Following, their guests were treated to lawn games & appetizers capped off by a beautiful cotton candy sunset.

Brittany gushed about Mateusz, “My favorite thing about my fiancé is how he supports me, makes me laugh and always pushes us to look toward the future.” Their supportive and FUN relationship is an inspiring example and it was a joy to capture their day.
