Ari and Brian were supposed to elope the day prior to these pictures but on a last min whim decided they would switch it to Monday (the next day) and celebrate with family on Monday night and then just themselves on Tuesday morning. Once the permit was secured, we went ahead with the plan and everything was flawless. Ari and Brian celebrated with family by having apps and dinner beforehand at a beautiful brick oven pizza place set in the gardens of this winery, @sweetpeascafemaine They had a few dances here then sent their guests off to go meet them in the park while they got into their wedding attire. We went into the park + celebrated their new marriage on the cliffs of Maine with their closest friends and family overlooking the crashing ocean. It was absolutely perfect. Ari and Brian went out for celebratory drinks on the town with their friends and family after + Arthur and I met up with them again in the morning for some portraits around the park.
After we were pictured out, we went into bar harbor and all got some ice cream. I mean how can you not document a bride in groom in their wedding attire eating ice cream?
This is a perfect example of doing WHATEVER your heart desires on your wedding day. (And you can also notice, it doesn’t have to just be one day of celebrations!)
