I truly want to relive this beautiful fall day over and over again. Nikki and Ben planned a wedding full of intention – every detail was thoughtfully crafted and every key moment considered throughout their planning. This is no surprise for a couple who enjoys slowing down and savoring their time together.

We began their day at the Bedford Village Inn – a gorgeous and classic venue centrally-located in Bedford, New Hampshire. I just loved photographing their details: the colors carefully picked out and many items designed by the bride herself! Then it was time to document the getting ready moments. These photos are not really about getting ready, but about the anticipation pre-ceremony and time spent with loved ones!

Then it was finally time for the ceremony. What I love most about the BVI is their outdoor space, complete with string lights! This was the perfect spot for Nikki and Ben to say, “I do!” I will probably never get over Ben’s reaction to seeing her walk down the aisle with her dad – cue all the happy tears.

After the ceremony we dove right into portraits. It was amazing to see these families come together and celebrate and to meet their stellar wedding party. After couple portraits on the property (I LOVE the ones we got in front of the silos!) the real party began. Kibar from A Main Event was an incredible host and set the perfect mood for everyone to dance all night! It was especially fun seeing Nikki’s Greek and Lebanese sides of the family do what they do best on the dance floor – check out all those dollar bills!

I will always have a soft spot in my heart for this wedding day, and for Nikki and Ben. Congratulations to the Bullocks!
