Beers, beats, bride.. and groom

Paulette Griswold October 22, 2022

I’ll never forget: How Jeff and Kristin were down to do anything- how their eyes lit up when I said “would you come outside with your beers so I can try something new?”

Simple & fun at the Factoria at Charles Point

Paulette Griswold September 24, 2022

I was inspired by: The unique locations they picked out. The Asian garden at Lasdon Park was bursting with butterflies, and a sweet nod to Michael’s heritage. The Factoria at Charlies Point is a beautifully built, historic building on a scenic area of the Hudson, and they did a great job turning it into a modern, fun-filled destination.

Fancy & free at Oakholm Farm Estate

Paulette Griswold September 10, 2022

We’ll never forget: the unplanned ceremony moment when Garrett’s youngest daughter ran up to give them both a big hug after their first kiss

Bringing down the Mavinhouse

Paulette Griswold August 26, 2022

Date: August 20th

Sunset: 7:37PM

We swooned over: The way the retro touches (Ellen’s classic gown and vintage veil, the vintage furniture set up on the lawn for cocktail hour, Greg’s suspenders) perfectly complimented the timeless elegance of the Moraine Farm Estate

Our favorite detail: The piñata that kicked off the party and gave all of the mini guests something fun to do!

We’ll never forget: The wild dance party under the tent

We were inspired by: The way these families love each other so openly and fiercely. We photography Ellen’s mom’s wedding a couple of years before this and whenever we see this big family, they are all supporting one another and having a ball!

Congrats to Greg and Ellen!

Post-elopement brewery bash for Pauline & Hannah

Paulette Griswold July 30, 2022

I swooned over: Pauline & Hannah’s casual-but-stylish outfits

My favorite detail: All of the food was hyper-local to our sweet little western Mass community! The venue, beer, ice cream, and pizza all came from Easthamptom businesses, along with some pie and florals from Florence, just one town over.

Laughing & Crying at the Kenmore Ballroom

Paulette Griswold July 27, 2022

Date: July 9th

Sunset: 8:34PM

I swooned over: The timeless elegance of these historic locations (The Argus Hotel and The Kenmore Ballroom)

My favorite detail: That extra extra long veil

I’ll never forget: The way Zach broke down when he saw Alisha for the first time in her dress

I was inspired by: The way they included their foster daughter throughout the day, and the loving support from all of their family members

Congrats to Alisha and Zach!
