So excited to share Sara and Ray gorgeous wedding day!  It was absolutely nostalgic for me to capture their wedding at the Hawthorne Hotel in Salem, MA because I actually got married there!   After getting ready in the charming hotel, Sara and Ray did a first look and some wedding party pictures on the Common before we went down to the waterfront for a few pictures.  The wind was blowing and it was the kind of cold where you get frostbitten if you are out too long!  But the girls had shawls to keep them as warm as possible (such a must-have for a late fall or winter wedding), and Sara had the most gorgeous fluffy pink shawl that I thought perfectly complemented her shoes.

The ceremony and reception took place in the ballroom, safe from the cold!    Sara and Ray did a beautiful choreographed first dance to Ed Sheeran’s Perfect, and everyone danced the night away!
