The ceremony took place at Memorial Church’s Appleton Chapel, with the reception at the beautiful Fairmont Copley. It was a blast!

It started to rain pretty hard just before the ceremony.

Uh oh, the priest is vying for my job!

Unbelievably the rain stopped right as the ceremony ended, so we were able to shoot outside! Here’s Widener Library.

Flowers by the Singing Flower.

I thought it would be cool to take the subway to the hotel.

The Boston Public Library.

What’s a best man speech without some embarrassing anecdotes?

Jen’s mom gets emotional during her husband’s speech.

I’ve seen them before and they put on great shows, but this time around they took full advantage of the theatre space to create an intense, jubilant and immersive show. Check it out!

Twain opened up the show. Lovely songs.

Full brass section, multiple stages… they even had an acrobat!

It’s only February and this might be a contender for show of the year. The full set is on my flickr page.
