Bellafare’s “Behind the Scenes” Wedding Video
What a great idea! We loved this video that wedding planners, Kristin and Lauren from Bellafare put together showing what it takes to make a tented wedding happen! We’ve really enjoyed working with Kristin and Lauren over the years…great taste and great personalities make their weddings really beautiful yet relaxed. Here’s a look at a few favorites we’ve worked at together: Hollen and Adam’s Wedding and Greg and Kaitlin’s Wedding, and check out the video below! And we loved seeing two of our other favorites vendors we work with also involved in the video – Sperry Tents of course and Mike Cyr from Buzz Media who made the video and who we always recommend for his small footprint and great personality! Enjoy!

Hill-Stead Museum Wedding Farmington CT: Jennifer and Eric!
The Hill-Stead Museum–a little slice of Vermont set in the Hartford suburbs–was the site of Jennifer and Eric’s wedding in late summer. Jennifer met Eric in the Hill-Stead sunken garden, wearing her Pronovias dress with flowers from Azalea Floral Design. We were all thrilled the rain held off for the first look and portraits around the beautiful property. As the rain hit, we headed to the fun and festive Sperry Tents for their wedding ceremony, a great meal and fun dancing. So nice seeing Jessi and Chris and Jessi’s family, whose wedding we photographed last summer…and we really enjoyed getting to know Jen’s mom, Alice too! The wedding was planned by our good friends Lindsay and Talia from Sixpence for your Shoe event planners, with delicious catering from Debbie Grazier at Avon’s Riverhouse Catering. We always love photographing at the Hill-Stead with its local history…and we are always discovering new backgrounds for photos…who knew that vintage wallpaper was upstairs!
Thanks Jennifer and Eric for having us document your day! To see many more photos please click here…..

Tappan Hill Mansion Wedding: Rachel and Mike!
A wonderful, very simpatico couple, Rachel and Mike had their engagement shoot with Jane earlier in the summer in West Hartford. Then in the fall, overlooking the Hudson River in Tarrytown NY, Rachel and Mike were married by Rachel’s cousin in an outdoor ceremony just past sundown at the Tappan Hill Mansion.
Their reception kicked off with a energetic hora by the Marcus Reid Band (this was the second time this year we worked together–a really great band!). Funny and touching speeches by Rachel’s mom, and Rachel and Mike’s siblings were followed by some more high energy dancing to Marcus and the band.
Congratulations Rachel and Mike!! And thanks for having us photograph your wedding!
