Alexa and Dan met at a party. When Dan decided to propose, he had their mutual friends (another couple) secretly photograph the big moment. Years earlier, Alexa and Dan had secretly photographed the proposal for these same two friends. All of this makes it seem so appropriate that their wedding felt like a big giant party in the name of love and friendship! They picked Guilford Yacht Club for the breezy coastal feeling (Dan proposed at Alexa’s favorite beach where she grew up vacationing)- their ceremony was outside overlooking the ocean. After the sun went down the party turned up and these two lived up every single bit of fun their reception had to offer- including a killer set from their live band Sugar, our photo booth (which didn’t have a single quiet moment all night), and a sparkler exit. At the end of the night Alexa looked like she was in a living dream and didn’t want to wake up! These two didn’t stop smiling the whole day.

Congratulations Alexa and Dan, and thank you so much for choosing us to capture your big day!
