Kimberly and Bill, Married! Part 1 of 2

It has been a long while since I published a real wedding and boy, are there so many amazing ones yet to come on the blog! You know how I often say that it is an honor to be the wedding photographer? That can not be more true when it comes to Kimberly and Bill, who I want to just hug all day for being such lovely human beings. Their wedding was so relaxed, it’s as if time slows down when I am with these two – and that’s a good thing! Their wedding was held at the Searles Castle in Windham, New Hampshire. Seriously, castle wedding? You guys rock my world.

The ladies were pampered with pedicures, hair updos, and makeup at Soleil Salon and Spa in Windham, NH

So much gorgeousness, the lace in the veil, the jewelry, ah my heart! And of course, I am a big fan of the hair flower =)
