Beach + Barn Party Wedding on the Cape

We met Jillian and Jeff through Matt Forcier, a talented wedding videographer and all-around awesome human being that we had the pleasure of working with before. He's married to Jill's twin sister Heather, and he was asked to officiate their wedding. We were honored to receive his recommendation and so excited to spend the day with this fantastic group! 

When we met Jeff and Jill, they described their wedding as a laid-back party on a family farm, and we knew it would be perfect for them. The whole day took on the kind of energy they have as people: easygoing, natural and fun. The festivities began with a "first look" over the sand dunes behind a Cape Cod cottage, followed by a quick portrait walk on the beach with their bridal party. We headed over to her uncle's tree farm for the ceremony, where Heather walked Jill down the aisle and Matt surprised the couple by having them take a celebratory shot of Irish whiskey. After some delicious BBQ & toasts under a tent, we walked around the farm with the newlyweds for some sunset photos and the bonfire was lit. After dark, the barn party began- and Mo Bounce worked up a dance RIOT that lasted all night long. 

We felt so grateful to be there to document all of the sweet and wild moments throughout the day, and to receive such a warm welcome by this couple and everyone connected to them. Thank you and CONGRATS to Mr. & Mrs. O'Neil!
