Deb and Bill || Hawthorne Hotel || Salem, MA

I hope everyone is enjoying this holiday season and is ready to get pounded with snow this weekend! Luckily, the snow held off for Deb and Bill's wedding a few weeks ago.






This is one of my new favorite pictures....





The ceremony was at Holy Armenian Apostolic Church the same church where Bill's parents got married, it was really beautiful, even in on a cold day with no leaves on the trees!



Married!!






We did a few pictures on the common, even though it was cold & dark!  I love the giant stone gazebo there.





Heading back into the hotel - isn't this just a classic picture?  I feel like it could be from 100 years ago.  Although, maybe there weren't tiny string lights 100 years ago, but you get the idea.

Christine Turner from The Hawthorne Hotel made sure everything looked perfect.


Cake from Montillio's.








I decided to hang out with Deb & Bill while they were waiting to be introduced since they were being so cute. Did I mention how smitten with each other they are? It's adorable, and also makes it really easy to take great pictures. Here they are practicing their first dance moves.

























I know it's hard to imagine what with the pretty chandelier and high ceilings....but the song playing here was The Search is Over by Survivor.  Apparently it got vetoed as their first dance song, but I think it's adorable and they clearly enjoyed dancing to it at the end of the night.


I would also like to give a big shout out to Lynne Valeri from Video Design. I don't have any pictures of her here because she is super-stealth and totally respectful when I'm shooting. Love that.

Welcome back from Hawaii Deb & Bill, can't wait to show you the rest!!!
