I met Kristen and Dan from an ad on craigslist, I know it could've been creepy. They were looking for a photographer for their wedding the Saturday after I saw the ad. For some reason I just had a feeling about the ad, so I emailed them, showed them my website. Kristen called me about 20 minutes after I sent the email. I was still a little iffy about it, but after talking with her and reading her wedding website I realized this would be a great couple. They had such a cute story on how they met, and how he proposed.
They were getting married on Hampton Beach by the Mariner's Memorial with their reception to follow at a club/bar that they loved so much. When I got to the house she was getting married at it was pouring out, but I don't think I've seen a more happy bride. She had a huge smile on her face the entire day.

Here are a couple shots of her getting ready.
Her niece worked on putting beading on her veil. It came out really well. It looked like one you would spend a lot of money on at a bridal shop.
Helping her Dad put on his boutonniere. I don't think he could have been more proud.
Once it did come time for the ceremony, one of their friends had put up a tent for the wedding party and all the guests had their own umbrellas so no one got wet (except for me because I stepped into quite a large puddle.) During the ceremony it was pouring, but isn't there a saying that it is good luck to rain on your wedding day?
The rain stopped long enough to do their formals on the boardwalk overlooking the ocean. It really was a pretty day.
Looking off into the ocean and forever together..
Their cake was a very yummy spice cake. I loved the cake topper. You can't really see it in this photo, but the bride is dragging the groom to the alter.
Apparently all of them love doing Karaoke. There was a portion of their reception that different people would come up and sing/Karaoke love song for them. It was really cute.

They really were a great couple. So in love and so happy with each other. It is couples like this that make me want to do wedding photography. I really believe, as well as Kristen & Dan, that things happen for a reason.
