Beth and Jeff had the most elegant and romantic wedding this past Saturday. The entire ceremony and reception was held at the Crane Estate in Ipswich, MA. If you’ve never been there, it’s worth a trip just to enjoy the gorgeous estate and the stunning views!
What a perfect location for an outdoor cermony and the weather did not disappoint. As the guests were seated, they were facing an incredible view of rolling green hills leading right to the ocean. It was just stunning! As were Beth and Jeff! After the ceremony we were able to sneak away to the Italian gardens for some formals. How many people can say that? And it was just as beautiful as it sounds, too. Here’s one of the images we took of Jeff and Beth and their wedding party. We always try to have fun with the weddng party and not just line everyone up for the more “traditional” wedding party shot. Like this!
After some more photos with the wedding party and Beth and Jeff’s family, we sent everyone back to the cocktail party and then we had plenty of time to just play around with Beth and Jeff alone. They were so ready to try anything! Beth climbed up on a stone bannister while Jeff perched himself on a little ledge just below it. The results were incredible! And here are a few other ones that we were able to get, too:
And then we took a few of both Jeff and Beth by themselves. I just love this one of Beth!
And here’s one I love of Jeff, too. Check out Jeff’s suit by the way… None of the men had tuxes but instead all wore very stylish suits. I absolutely loved the look!
And I thought I’d end this little peek into their wedding with a photo from their first dance. All of their guests danced on the open air terrace right behind the estate. It was so beautiful because it meant that all of their guests could enjoy the setting sun while feeling the nice cool breeze and then were able to dance under the stars at night! But first, Jeff and Beth enjoyed their first dance surrounded by everyone and this was definitely one of my favorite moments.
Thank you for letting us be there with you all day! It was truly so beautiful and we’ll really never, ever forget it. See you soon when you come back from your honeymoon!
