Melissa and David’s wedding at Harrington Farm was a celebration as unique and fun as they are. Melissa looked incredible in a stunning black wedding dress—a bold choice that paired perfectly with David’s classic white tuxedo jacket. The purple accents throughout the day tied everything together beautifully, giving the whole wedding a vibrant, modern feel.


One of the most special touches was that Melissa’s mom created all of the floral arrangements. Melissa even made her own veil, adding another personal and creative detail to the day. The florals were gorgeous and made the wedding feel even more meaningful. Their friend Alexandria officiated the ceremony and did a fantastic job.


The rain held off, leaving us with an overcast sky that gave us gorgeous, soft light for photos. We had such a fun time exploring the grounds at Harrington Farm for their couples portraits. Melissa is quirky and full of personality, while David is more mild-mannered, and together they’re an amazing pair. They were both so fun to work with, and their energy made the day a joy to photograph.


Once the dance floor opened up, everyone was ready to celebrate. It was a night full of laughter, dancing, and unforgettable moments.


Melissa and David, thank you for letting me capture your incredible day—it was truly one-of-a-kind!
