Samoset Resort Maine Wedding | Eliza and Kris

I love Eliza and Kris! Their smiles, their personalities and now that I’ve met their family and friends, I’m in love with them too. This wedding was an extra year in the making but absolutely worth it.

Dean and I are both 1/2 Polish but I don’t think either of us know that much about anything Polish so we are finding we learn so much by working with our clients who bring in their heritage as part of their day. I loved hearing Eliza explain to her mom, with the help of her soon to be Mother in Law how her last name will change in how it’s pronounced in Poland now that she’s married. Something Dean and I didn’t know. (Maybe people will be finally able to pronounce my last name?)

Eliza and Kris first met through mutual friends and colleagues while Eliza was working at Northeastern University and Kris, having attended there and, was at the time very active in the alumni community. Eliza’s colleague played matchmaker at an NU alumni event at the New England Aquarium. Going with the aquarium/fish theme, Kris decided to propose to Eliza in the Bahamas. He arranged a picnic (he told Eliza it was a wine tasting), Kris popped the question surrounded by the bluest water on the planet at Cloisters Gardens in Nassau, Bahamas.

So naturally their wedding had to also have that ocean theme - they chose the stunning Samoset Resort in Rockland, Maine for their wedding venue. Narrowly missing the remnants of tropical storm Elsa that barreled through the day before, Eliza, Kris and all of their family and friends celebrated with an outdoor ceremony, cocktail hour on the lawn and then dancing the night away under the tent. The couple even brought in a special late night surprise for their guests - an ice cream truck with a twist! It was such a hit!

I’m pretty sure we spent the day photographing models with the kindest hearts and best friends and family. Scroll down to see a few highlights from their day.
