With several roaring fires warming their vintage colonial home (complete with duck pond out back), Jess and Trevor got ready for their winter wedding before heading to the classic New Haven Lawn Club for their beautiful ceremony and reception.  Jess and Trevor’s home showcased some of Jess’s artwork, including the graphic zebra print behind Trevor in the blogshow.  Check out her website to see more about her cool work.

The New Haven Lawn Club’s halls were decked with Christmas garlands and beautifully lit by candlelight for their event.  The ballroom–a large yet intimate space–features antique Austrian crystal chandeliers and sconces…the perfect setting for a wedding.

Later in the night Jess and Trevor braved the beginning of the blizzard to run outside for some night shots.  The falling snow along with the warmth and decorations inside lent a magical holiday party atmosphere to their wedding.

Congrats Jess and Trevor and thanks for having us photograph your wedding!

Are you smarter than a second grader?  That’s what Catherine and Justin’s colorful table signs (with questions inside) asked guests at their winter wedding this past weekend at the The Riverhouse at Goodspeed Station in Haddam, Connecticut (Justin knows just what to ask…he’s a second grade teacher).

Their games theme started in the cocktail hour with crossword puzzles using clues about themselves along with paper fortune tellers and the Magic 8-ball.  And after the ceremony Catherine and Justin presented trophies to their families and friends for their various “achievements”…..it all made for a very fun wedding.  They even had mini-me Justin and Catherine custom made yarn dolls by Bamboletta.

White dress, white sky, white snow….let’s go outside and take some photos….so we dashed outside for some cool shots of Catherine in her pretty short dress huddled next to Justin.

Really nice family and friends and a terrific couple….thanks Catherine and Justin for having us document your day!
