Julia and Mike had the most picturesque wedding day imaginable. Picture this: it’s your wedding day and you’re watching the sunset on the rooftop after your ceremony on the grand allée of the Crane Estate. You’re about to head to your reception when you realize you forgot to practice your first dance in your dress! No time like the present so you whip out the phone playlist and have a moment together laughing and taking it all in. Despite a jam-packed day, Julia and Mike were so relaxed and enjoyed every second of their glamorous wedding. Photographers know what a dream the Crane Estate is to capture and we were thrilled with so many iconic shots. Planned to perfection by Elegant Aura, our hearts are full.
Their wedding day began with some threatening forecasts of rain. It was disappointing to think that we wouldn't be able to go outside and take advantage of the beautiful grounds. Thankfully the rain finally stopped and 5 minutes before the ceremony began and they chose to move from the tent to the lawn. It was a real team effort with the kitchen staff and coordinators rearranging the chairs and me and Jovan moving the flowers. Jovan and I even doubled as flower girls spreading the petals moments before they walked down the aisle! It was totally worth it to make Stephanie and Billy's dream come true of getting married looking over the allée of the Crane Estate!
Danielle began getting ready at their house in Newburyport. Her adorable flower girls definitely stole the show as they thew a dance party, spinning in their tulle skirts and casting spells with their princess wands! Danielle was incredibly stunning in her lace gown and succulent bouquet. Dan got ready nearby and they both met at the Immaculate Conception Parish in Newburyport. After their traditional Catholic ceremony, they got in the limo and headed over to Turner Hill.
