Warmest congratulations to Taylor and Nick! Their enchanting waterfront wedding at Regatta Place in Newport Rhode Island turned their dreams into reality. Taylor and Nick aimed to design a wedding that truly embodied their passions, resulting in a sophisticated celebration. The day commenced with a heartfelt first look for the couple at Ochre Court, a moment of significance and tenderness for both. Following this, we captured portraits of them as almost newlyweds, along with their wedding party. Taylor’s bridesmaids were adorned in exquisite and distinctive light blue gowns that added a delightful touch of fun to the occasion.
Regatta Place, renowned for its picturesque waterfront vistas, provided Taylor and Nick with a splendid backdrop for an open-air ceremony by the harbor. It stands as one of our preferred locations for a wedding ceremony in Newport, RI, with unrivaled views. Subsequent to the ceremony, Taylor and Nick’s reception exuded sheer elegance, featuring pastel floral centerpieces and gold place settings. Not only was the reception visually stunning, but it was also filled with joy and merriment, with everyone reveling in the celebration of the newlyweds. It was truly a wonderful time!
Taylor and Nick, we extend our heartfelt gratitude for allowing us to be part of your Newport wedding day. Your celebration was the epitome of elegance, timelessness, and classic beauty, perfectly reflecting your unique personalities. May your journey together be filled with a lifetime of love and happiness!

A Tip for Our Couples…
First looks offer an exceptional opportunity for couples on their wedding day. They provide a chance for additional portraits and a quiet, intimate moment together before the festivities commence. Taylor and Nick, for instance, chose to privately exchange their vows during their first look—a brilliant idea worth sharing. If you wish to share your vows in a more secluded and intimate setting, consider doing so during your first look. You can reserve more traditional vows or a condensed version of your personalized vows for the public ceremony later on.
