Wedding and Portrait Photography – Karen Leaf

Me: Just want to make sure, October 15th is a Wednesday, is that right?

Carolyn: Yes, we’re going to be married at Harkness Park on Wednesday 15th October

I was intriqued to say the least with a Wednesday wedding and it’s so cool that Carolyn and Adam had their first date on October 15 2006, on the beach at Harkness, got engaged on the same beach October 15th 2007, and now celebrated their marriage October 15 2008!

The Eolia mansion has to be one of the most magnificent venues on the East Coast, first class service and gardens that are immaculate.

With Carolyn and Adam so happy with their friends and family supporting them it was a beautiful fall wedding.

I Love Love LOVE Carolyn’s simple slippers! The cobalt blue shoes were just the right color to complement the simple orange bouquets the girls carried and just popped with color.

This one was a surprise–as Carolyn was dressing she walked by the glass table and her reflection was perfect!

A huge benefit of having the dressing, ceremony, and reception in one place is that there is no down time or travel time between sites.  Carolyn’s photography coverage was only 4 hours long,  but we were able to get the girls gettting primped, the guys formals with plenty of time. Carolyn and Adam chose too see each other prior to the ceremony which saved a lot of time, as we were able to get some formals done before the ceremony, as well as afterwards.

Dinner was held in one of the rooms off the main entry with a fabulous view onto the Long Island Sound.

Thank you so much for asking me to share your day.
