Last Saturday, I headed down to Rhode Island for my second wedding there this year, this time at the splendid Narragansett Towers.  It was a beautiful day for a wedding, and my day couldn’t have started any better – I got such a warm welcome at K’s parents’ home where K was getting ready with her mom, sisters, nieces and best friends.  I was a little anxious when I heard about the size of the bridal party (8 bridesmaids, 6 groomsmen, 2 junior bridesmaids, 3 flower girls and 5 ring bearers) but it was actually super fun – and K’s ultra laid-back attitude made my job so much less stressful than it could have been!

K’s beautiful lace dress was hanging on the cutest hanger from Etsy.

There was a very relaxed atmosphere at the house and I split my time between taking candids of the girls hanging out and taking fun detail shots … including K’s spectacular shoes which went on a little “shoe safari” a la Mister Phill. 🙂

The girls from Moss Salon did a great job with the hair, and I loved working with Gina Vanacore of 2 Shine Cosmetics – she was not only great fun but also a speed demon!

The flowers by Nancy at Dyer Avenue Florist in Cranston, RI were gorgeous, and unique. The mint in K’s bouquet was so pretty (and smelled wonderful):

A’s sisters joined us late morning. Aren’t these dresses so pretty? I love the beachy colors that K and A chose.

I just adore this next shot of K being helped into her dress:

A couple of last photos of K before I left to meet the guys at the church:

A was all smiles … and I love the sand colored suits his guys were wearing:

The ring bearers were adorable and hilarious:

A few favorite moments from the Catholic ceremony at St. Thomas More Church:

There was a great little courtyard at the church where K and A greeted their guests after the ceremony:

And I’ll leave you with a little taste of things to come after the long weekend … have a great Independence Day and I’ll be back on Tuesday or Wednesday with part two!
