Kara and Alex’s wedding at Fruitlands Museum in Harvard, MA, was a beautiful celebration filled with love, fun, and music. The day unfolded under clear skies, offering stunning views and a sunset that perfectly capped off the evening.



Kara and Alex's love story began as bandmates in an indie rock band, and their musical connection was evident throughout the day. Their close friend and former bandmate officiated the ceremony, adding a personal touch that made the day even more meaningful. The venue was particularly special because Kara’s parents were married in the same spot 33 years earlier, creating a beautiful family tradition for weddings at this gorgeous spot.


As the night went on, their shared love of music truly came alive on the dancefloor. The energy was infectious, with everyone enjoying the celebration. A special highlight was when the dance set featured a song from Kara and Alex’s band, bringing their journey full circle.


Kara and Alex’s wedding was a perfect mix of love, music, and tradition, creating memories that will last a lifetime. I am so happy to have been a part of their day! Congratulations Kara and Alex!
