An Intimate Cape Cod Wedding in Chatham, MA

Ahhhh, there's nothing quite like the sounds of the ocean and a sunny day at the beach. Having just returned from our summer vacation on Cape Cod - today's wedding from Chatham, MA on the Cape was submitted at just the right time. The photo below captures the Cape Cod landscape perfectly.

Today's couple, Michelle and Craig, are from NYC, but their love of Cape Cod brought their friends and family together to celebrate their marriage. After marrying in the quaint town of Chatham at Holy Reedemer Church, the bride and groom traveled to Chatham Light House and Main Street. On our latest trip to Cape Cod, we drove thru Chatham for the first time and fell in love with it. The main street had so many shops and eateries and when we approached Chatham Light House the fog had rolled in and while we couldn't see the ocean as a result - we just knew the view must be spectacular. If anybody can recommend a house to rent {without bugs} in Chatham, please do share.

Michelle and Craig's wedding was filled with many personal touches including homemade jelly by the bride's mom and handmade pashminas from India by the groom's mom. The bride's cameo necklace was her grandmother's and worn by her mom at her very own wedding to Michelle's dad. The bride's uncle designed her wedding gown, as well as her veil, purse and even the attire for both the mothers and maid of honors.
