Laureh and I had the pleasure of spending a day with Chris and Emily a few weeks ago for their destination Bar Harbor wedding, and what a gorgeous day it was! We started the day at the Bar Harbor Inn where both Chris and Emily were getting ready. After a first look at the inn, we ventured into beautiful Acadia National Park for some pre-ceremony photos. It was certainly busy out there, but we found some great spots for photos before heading back for the ceremony. We had so much fun and I hope you enjoying reliving the day through the photos stories that follow. Thanks for coming!

^Emily was quite impressed when her "Bride hair" was done! On of my favorite new phrases, haha!
I love watching couples laugh and smile while reading reading the notes and letters they have written to each other.
That look when you are walking to your groom for the first look and people just start walking in the way haha!
Just checking to make sure Chris brushed his teeth! (I have have no idea what was going on here, but it was funny)
For being on a Friday early in the vacation season, the park was quite busy and we had to get a little adventurous to find spots without other people around!
It may or may not have been a bit windy on the cliffs at Sand Beach!
The ocean view from the backyard ceremony site at the Bar Harbor Inn is amazing!
Before the ceremony, Chris and Emily's wedding bands we there for family and friends as they walked in. This "Ring Warming" is for people to offer prayers/blessings/well wishes for their marriage!
Emotional Father/Daughter dances are the best to capture! :)
The rest of the night was celebrated away in the Porcupine Room and outside deck . It also cooled off for a refreshing evening and coloful sunset. Perfect for some end of the day portraits!
Thank you Chris and Emily!
