Karine and Marc decided to take their Boston Marathon experience to a whole new level… by getting married RIGHT after. No showering, no changing, just finish line to altar.

And it did not disappoint! Let’s see how it all played out from start to finish line…

If there’s one things that’s really been a welcome change at weddings over the last decade or so, it’s a focus on less stiff posing, more authenticity, and more mindfulness on the day. And that’s exactly why we LOVE partnering with offbeat and inclusive vendors like Shaina from Golden Door Photography. We talked a bit with her about her style, why she’s all about intention and acceptance, and about her brand new podcast that’s premiering this summer!

I wore a black dress (my dream) that I got at Macy's for under $150 which was a bonus for a thrifty maven.

Margaret and Henry met and fell in love while at trapeze circus school. You know what this means: trapeze and circus-style performances abounded!
