Cheers to Nyree and Hansley on their remarkable celebration! In August, the couple hosted a stunning summer wedding at OceanCliff Hotel – and what’s more, it took place on a Monday! Infused with romantic and classic New England vibes, their special day unfolded exactly as they envisioned when they first chose OceanCliff Hotel. Opting for a color palette featuring various shades of lavender, Nyree and Hansley paid a heartfelt tribute to their late niece, a subtle yet beautiful nod to someone deeply cherished.
The wedding ceremony took place on the OceanCliff lawn, offering breathtaking views of the water. Following the vows, we guided the newlyweds to some of our favorite spots on the property for their initial portraits as a married couple. The historic and captivating architecture of OceanCliff’s main building added a timeless charm to the photographs. The rest of the day was spent in joyous celebration with loved ones, featuring a lively reception with a packed dance floor and an abundance of positive energy – the ideal way to honor Nyree and Hansley!
