Sarah + Ford | Primo Restaurant | Owl's Head Maine Wedding

The smiles say it all! While there was SO much rain in the forecast surrounding their wedding day, I don’t think we could have been graced with a more perfect window of clear weather in which to celebrate. I joined Ford and Sarah’s wedding weekend the night before their big day at Primo’s. What a perfect spot for spending time with friends and family during a rehearsal dinner (even if some guests were delayed on their arrival by some navigation issues with the trolley). Eventually everyone arrived and enjoyed an evening together in the barn, among the gardens, and even visiting the happiest pigs you’ll ever see!

On the wedding day, I arrived to everyone bustling about and family helping out with putting some of the final pieces into place. Dyson on the other hand(now one of my favorite dogs ever), was content to relax in his spot in the back of the SUV, away from the commotion. I’m so thankful that the rains held out until later in the evening, giving them enough time to celebrate with their friends and family outside amongst the beautiful backdrop of the water in Owls Head. I can’t say enough how wonderful these two and their families were to spend time with, and I’m so excited to share some of the memories captured from their wedding day!

Dyson was quite the life of the party! Once he decided to join in on the action, he had no problem finding new friends! I love how he plopped himself right in the aisle before the ceremony haha!

Cody + Nichole | The Farm At Worthley Pond Wedding | Peru, Maine Photographer

After already getting to know them previously during their engagement session last year, I knew Cody and Nichole would be so easy to photograph! As I would have mentioned in the past, they have this magnetic connection to each other other, which just shines through when they're together. This was my first time at Worthley Pond, and what a wonderful spot! Even with some spotty drizzle, it was such a beautiful location to host a party like this. To make it even more special, almost everything was put together with the help of family and friends! My favorite part of their wedding day really was the simplicity and relaxed atmosphere. From the layout of the schedule, to the awesome choice in music, which bucked a lot of traditional "must do" kind of stuff. I hope you enjoy reliving the day through the photos below and thanks for coming!

Again, they opted for some awesome choices in music as a friend performed an acoustic version of "Everlong" by the Foo Fighters for their first dance. Yes, of course that's what I'm listening to as I work on this blog post!!!

The kids at this wedding were certainly the stars of the dance floor with some crazy good dancing and acrobatics thrown in!
