A Connecticut wedding : The Boathouse at Saugatuck

A Westport CT Wedding | The Saugatuck Rowing Club

Blake and Dan were married recently at Greens Farms Congregational Church with a reception following at The Boathouse in Saugatuck. 

There is nothing quite like a Connecticut Spring wedding, and nothing better then when the day is as gorgeous as it was for these 2!! We got started that day right at the church before the ceremony….

Some details from Dans custom suit from Hive and Colony, Boston

Blake and her Mom (who did all the flowers, BTW…) waiting before the ceremony begins.

 

You know, when the flower girl is too excited to toss petals, you just have to take over and do it yourself sometimes!

 

For me, this look between Blake and her Dad is what weddings are all about!

Just a few family pix inside the church before heading off to the venue.

The color and soft light in the boathouse itself is just so great – and they really seem excited to let wedding couple roam around too!!!

 

 

I’d kinda like to know what exactly Dan said here…

Ya gotta have wedding corn hole, am I right??!

 

This was pretty cool : a table with a logo tile inlay that everyone signed the top of as a kind of a typical guest book!

Such a perfect day to be outside along the river!

 

2 great and very different faces (I always love trying to get dramatic B&W portraits when I can at weddings!)

Speech time!

I just loved the whole color and theme that ran throughout everything! (with the addition of Lobster sugar cookies to top it off! )

We moved upstairs finally for dancing!

 

One of my favorite shots of the evening – Blake with her dad.

 

…and that photo to the right of Mom reacting just kills me!

 

There was Hawaii-Five O body surfing. Don’t ask…. 🙂
