When Mia reached out about her photography session at the Seacoast NH tiny wedding to Seb, she told me it was going to be at her Grandfather’s retirement community so he could be there. My grandparents’ were so instrumental in my life, and they’re even in my wedding info booklet I send out to clients ♥️, so I was already overwhelmed with emotion and anticipating the intention and specialness of the day.
What transpired defied expectation.
Given the circumstances, an abundance of caution was taken. We included her grandfather in photos from a distance, they cut the cake masked so he could have a piece, and he was handed his champagne glass wiped down with a disinfectant wipe.
But the celebration still felt close. Close together. Close knit. Complete.
Top 4 Details:
- #4 – Totally Fetch! Being married on 10/3 meant it was “Mean Girls Day“, so Mia’s mom secretly brought pink accents for everyone for a photo. (Grandpa’s pink is the best)
- #3 – Mia’s embroidered cake, that was designed based on her mask and was extraordinary. (From Prairie Baking Co, Portland)
- #2 – Their wedding rings. They’re created from Seb’s grandparent’s wedding rings.
- #1 – Hands down, no competition THE BEST WEDDING SHOES I’ve EVER SEEN. (Yes, I’m yelling. No, I’m not sorry)
In addition, I genuinely wish that Mia + Seb could give a masterclass on how to be with each other. Not just for photos, but for always. They’re smitten, romantic, silly, and SO in love.
And biodegradable confetti photos are maybe my new favorite.
Thank you SO SO much for asking me to be a part of your tiny wedding. I couldn’t think of a better way to spend a glorious afternoon.
