Julia and Sean’s wedding was a day full of personal touches and meaningful moments, set against two iconic Boston locations. The couple met during their time at Babson College, where Sean captained the baseball team and Julia excelled in cross-country and track. Their connection grew through shared activities, mutual friends, and a strong sense of camaraderie.

Their engagement story is as memorable as their journey together. On a stormy March day, Sean proposed to Julia on Duxbury Beach, her hometown’s picturesque coastline. The dramatic weather made the moment feel intimate and unique, with the empty beach providing a serene backdrop. Adding to the celebration, both families joined them moments later, creating a joyful start to their next chapter.
