What a beautiful day it ended up being for Wil and Liz's destination wedding in Castine, ME! Many friends and family traveled long distances to come and celebrate with them on pretty short notice. The amazing feat was the result of only a short 6 weeks planning and preparation time! The plan was simple though, an intimate wedding with a little over 30 close friends and family. They enjoyed the week on this beautiful river front property, with the finale being the wedding day! I arrived to everyone bustling about and helping put the final pieces in place, including the beautiful arbor just built that morning! Except for moment when I stepped backward and crushed a can of beer that ended up soaking my shoe, I had an amazing time with these two, and their lovely friends/family. Everyone was so welcoming and it was more like being one of the guests, with everyone knowing me by name. It is possible that sharing names with both Liz's father and brother helped though haha. Instead of having a favorite memory, I most enjoyed seeing everyone have such a relaxing good time together. Not all weddings can be described that way! I hope you enjoy the photos as much I enjoyed being there to capture them!

Flower crowns and bacon. Both essential things to have while getting ready!
Cigars and lobstah socks for the boys, Ayuh!
What a delicious spread and fantastic service by Markels Bake House!
I love toasts with laughs and tears! Liz's sisters' headbutting stories probably had to be the best though!
It's rare that I would leave the reception for photos, but wow, so worth it! A short 5 minute ride led us to this beautiful west-facing beach in Castine for Sunset!
Thank you Wil and Liz!
