What an incredibly fun wedding on Saturday!! Allison and Greg are such an amazing couple! This has been a great start to the year for us because we’ve known all of our couples so far for such a long time. If you’ve been keeping up with the blog, you’ll soon start to see all of the connections! We actually photographed Allison’s sister’s wedding (Renee and Lance) last year. That’s when we first met Allison’s family and started to meet the “Fenway crew”. The Fenway crew is a group of friends that all work at Fenway during the year together. They’re a really tight group of friends and it just so happens that a lot of them that are getting married at around the same time, too! We’ve been photographing a lot of their weddings, too, so it’s just so much fun to see everyone again at each wedding!
Allison and Greg’s reception was held at the beautiful Royal Sonesta in Cambridge. They actually left a two hour gap in between the end of their ceremony and the beginning of the reception so we had plenty of time to get some incredible photos. The original plan was to go outside and take a lot photos along the Charles River. Unfortunately, though it rained all day long so we needed to stay inside. But that turned out to be a such a treat after all because the Royal Sonesta has one of the funkiest interiors we have seen in a long time! Every time we turned a corner we saw another cool spot for some photos and Allison and Greg were like rock stars as they worked it for us! Believe it or not, the image above was taken by Rene just in a hallway at the hotel that was lined with pictures. I absolutely love their reflections in those frames, too. Here are a few more of my favorites:
This was what I saw when I first arrived at Allison’s house that afternoon. As a surprise, all of Allison’s students had a party and they each made a card for her the week before the wedding. How special was that!
This is another one of Rene’s images while we were roaming the hotel after the ceremony. I’m just going to be honest and say that these two really do look like they belong in Vogue, no?
And here’s one more that I took during their first dance. What made me love this photo is just how close Greg is holding Allison and that happy smile….
That’s it for now, but we’re working on the rest of the images for the website right now. Since Allison and Greg won’t be going on their honeymoon until August, I know they’re ready to see them!
