She sat in the middle of the room with her hands folded in her lap looking out over the vast ocean that sparkled in the distance through the window. Kelly and John first met along that same sandy shore, and had spent many days staring at the Atlantic Ocean wondering together, what the future held.

As the midday sun filtered through the windows into the bridal suite, Kelly breathed a long sigh as she relaxed into her makeup chair a little further. They had traveled the world together – exploring new places, and conquering new adventures. Their wedding day was here and she was ready to start this new journey with John.

The Wilbur Boathouse sat tucked back along the water behind the hustle and bustle of the busy tourist filled streets. It was the perfect location for a small intimate wedding – just perfect, for them. On this day, family and friends surrounded them under a white tent and listened as they recited their own personal vows to one another – and sealed their forever with a kiss.

Kelly and John, you two are truly wonderful. You have a joy that is simply infectious, and it’s the most wonderful thing to be around! I can’t adequately describe how much I loved being there on your wedding day. Thank you for being so caring, and thoughtful…you made me fall more in love with what I do.
Much Love,
Sara + Chris
