Whitney and Chris Married | Belle Mer, Newport RI

Whitney and Chris began dating in the 8th grade! They have one of those classic highschool sweetheart stories and I was so honored to be able to capture this most important day in their lives. I loved watching them interact together, smile and dance together… There was so much joy!

Q-
What advice would you offer to our future brides and grooms? A- Take multiple moments to look around the room and take everything in. When you’re getting ready, when you’re standing at the altar and all during the reception. It goes by so fast and you’re pulled in so many different directions during the wedding you don’t realize how much you can miss.

I would have to say the first look would be mine. Seeing Chris for the first time was the most nervous I’ve been since we were kids! Chris’s favorite moment would be the first look and his best man’s speech. Ryan is not a public speaker as we all noticed, but because his speech was so genuine, so funny and so emotional, that is what made it so special for Chris.

A- The inspiration behind our wedding was really being on the water. We wanted to capture the feeling of being captivated by the surroundings the venue provided. The color palette I picked was inspired by matching the view of the sunset at Belle Mer. That’s where all the champagnes, metallic pinks and golds came in. I think it tied everything together nicely.

But if I have to get specific I would say the flowers and how they matched so well with the color palette. Every person I spoke to during and after the wedding said they could not believe how beautiful everything was. I’m sure the gorgeous weather and sunset we had that day helped too. 🙂Belle Mer0078  belle mer_0200 Belle Mer0083 Belle Mer0084 Belle Mer0085 Belle Mer0086 Belle Mer0087 Belle Mer0088 Belle Mer0089 Belle Mer0090 Belle Mer0092 Belle Mer0093 Belle Mer0094 Belle Mer0095 Belle Mer0096 Belle Mer0097 Belle Mer0098 Belle Mer0099 Belle Mer0101 Belle Mer0102 Belle Mer0103 Belle Mer0104 Belle Mer0105 Belle Mer0107 Belle Mer0108 Belle Mer0109 Belle Mer0110 Belle Mer0111 Belle Mer0112 Belle Mer0114Belle Mer0113Belle Mer0115 Belle Mer0116 Belle Mer0117 Belle Mer0118 Belle Mer0119 Belle Mer0120 Belle Mer0121 Belle Mer0122 Belle Mer0123 Belle Mer0124 Belle Mer0125 Belle Mer0126 Belle Mer0127 Belle Mer0128 Belle Mer0129 Belle Mer0131 Belle Mer0132 Belle Mer0133 Belle Mer0134
