Cheers, Alli & Joel! … to you and your first anniversary.

A grand autumn celebration featuring all things local, repurposed and reloved – as important to Alli and Joel as sharing it with family and friends.

Such a gentle warmth and deep love.

No two souls have been more connected or intertwined. It is humbling and stirring to witness.

May you continue to stay true to who you are.

The dashing couple resonated the sentiment of Old Hollywood.

The worn brick and wood of the funky space flickered in the shadows of the distinctive lighting.

Crafted beer and custom linens.

The warm glow of love on a chilly winter night in Maine.

And the band rocked everyone to the stroke of midnight.  What a way to end the year and begin the next.

Cheers Jessica & Jonathan!… to you and your first anniversary.

Happy New Year will always be Happy Anniversary. Quite a celebration.

After meeting on the sunny docks of Portland, the bride and groom boarded a beautiful custom-built Hinkley bound for Peaks Island.

The grounds of the TEIA Club were peppered with bright reds, oranges and pinks in the hundreds of tissue paper poms, hand-made pillows and fabulous florals.

A small canon was fired as the couple kissed and the crowd went wild.

Into the September twilight the celebration roared on the banks of the island; no person missed a savory bite nor their turn on the dance floor.

Cheers Katie & Joe! … to you and your first anniversary. May your lives continue to be filled with delectable foods and adoring family and friends. And may the brightness of your day always make you smile.
