We can’t believe they’re married!! We’ve been waiting a long time for this wedding! Nicole has been in two other weddings already that we photographed. Ashley and Ryan were married in July of last year and Kristin and Jon were married just a couple of months ago in July! Ashley, Kristin, Nicole and an entire crew of girlfriends all grew up together in Hanover. They’ve all been friends since pre-school and the beautiful thing is just how tight they all still are. Can I just tell you how much fun it was to walk into Nicole’s parents’ home that morning and run around hugging all the girls in the bridal party since we all knew each other from everyone else’s wedding. It was like coming home again. Seeing everyone’s parents’ and friends and relatives again was just amazing! And that’s really a testament to just how wonderful everyone there was.
And now it was Nicole and Ryan’s wedding day! They had their reception at the Granite Links country club which is a phenomenal location. It is NOT just another country club. It’s set way up high on a hill and you have stunning views of the Boston skyline in one direction and an amazing view of the setting sun in another. It was amazing! The weather was a bit….chilly up there on the mountain, though. Everyone was so great about pretending they weren’t freezing, though and we were able to get some amazing group photos! And Nicole and Ryan look like they just fell off the cover of a fashion magazine, so we just couldn’t stop running around the grounds with them. They timed everything just pefectly because the sun was just setting as we were taking formals with them and had such gorgeous light to play with. Here’s one of my favorite images that Rene took of Nicole’s eyes:
And here are some more of just Nicole and Ryan:
The image above is Rene’s view with the dramatic sky behind them. And here was my view from the other side on the ground…
That wind picking up Nicole’s veil was no joke. It was cold! It made for an incredible image, though, so THANK YOU for toughing it out with us, guys!
I love this next image, too. After we came inside, Rene actually found Ryan’s best man going over his speech one last time in the empty room…
And finally, I just wanted to introduce everyone to our brides! Ashley is on the left and she was married first (7/9/05), that’s Nicole in the middle (10/6/06), and Kristin on the right (7/14/06)!
We can’t wait for Nicole and Ryan to get back from their honeymoon soon so they can see the rest of the images. And we can’t wait to see everyone again!
Melissa & Rene,
Another fabulous job by you guys! It was so wonderful to see you again. I can’t wait to see all the pictures of Nicole & Ryan’s wedding. I know they will be fabulous!
Maybe another Hanover wedding next year!
Fondly,
Mary Saniuk
Melissa and Rene,
I can’t thank you ENOUGH for capturing such amazing photos from our wedding…I’ve only seen the blog images and I can only imagine what the rest look like! It was such a special day and we wouldn’t be able to have such beautiful memories without your incredible expertise.
Many THANKS!
Nicole & Ryan
