Hellenic Center Wedding || Seph and Tara

So excited to share Seph and Tara’s wonderful wedding at the Hellenic Center in Ipswich Massachsuetts!

"If I believe in one thing... just one thing... I believe in her." - Doctor Who, Tenth Doctor

The way Seph looks at Tara, and sweetly kisses her hand and holds it to his heart, you will see how that quote is so incredibly perfect for their love. Not only because of how they both feel, but because they are huge Doctor Who fans! Actually, that quote (in it's entirety) was displayed in a little frame as part of their Doctor Who-inspired wedding details. Love love LOVE it.

There were so many personal touches, not only with Doctor Who, either. Tara's aunts made the cake and flowers, and their friend officiated the ceremony. Just goes to show how many people came together in celebrating the wedding of these two! Congratulations, it was so fun to shoot!

And it had been awhile since I photographed a wedding at the Hellenic Center - it’s a beautiful wedding venue in Ipswich - they do an awesome job there!

Ceremony and Reception: Hellenic Center, Ipswich, MA

Thank you Seph and Tara for inviting me to be a part of this very fun Hellenic Center wedding!

All of these kids are so freakin' adorable, and you can see how excited this little flower girl was.

Trying out their DIY Doctor Who photobooth - their friend made the TARDIS backdrop (seriously amazing), and they had all sorts of appropriate Doctor Who wedding themed props!

And of course Tara looked stunning!

As soon as the kids made it down the aisle, they got lollipops. What a great idea! Definitely kept them busy through the ceremony.

Just little moments like this... Tara was getting a little choked up during her vows, and Seph reached out to reassure her. Sometimes I notice these things even after I've shot it and am going through the editing process, and I sigh and say "awww!"

Their officiant and friend, Baratunde might've thrown in a little "Go Pats" and "Go Sox" into their ring vows.

Loving the chandelier hanging from this tree for the ceremony at the Hellenic Center. And of course Seph’s little heel kick during their kiss! Haha.
