Weddings

Congratulations to Mattison and Kevin on their stunning wedding day at The Dunes Club in Rhode Island! From the outset, they envisioned an elegant celebration inspired by an English Garden, set against the picturesque backdrop of Narragansett beach, complete with timeless touches.

Growing up frequenting this very beach, the decision to exchange vows here held profound significance for both bride and groom. Their journey began with a traditional morning, preparing separately before coming together for a heartfelt ceremony at Saint Francis of Assisi Parish. Following their vows, they embarked on a nostalgic drive to the beach in Mattison’s beloved Grand Jeep Wagoneer, a cherished link between their past and future. Capturing moments with the car added a special touch to their day.

Arriving at the beach, Mattison and Kevin radiated joy during their portraits, surrounded by loved ones against the scenic backdrop. Inside The Dunes Club, elegance abounded with white and pastel bouquets, complemented by silver place settings, creating an enchanting atmosphere for their reception.

Congratulations once again to Mattison and Kevin! We feel privileged to have documented your beautiful Dunes Club wedding day.
