Amanda and Chris had a gorgeous backyard wedding in Presque Isle. These two lovebirds have been together since high school! I remember when I was a freshman and they were seniors. So crazy that years later I would document the biggest day of their lives! The ceremony was held on Amanda’s family farm in Presque Isle. They definitely had a very sunny and warm day, the temperature was near 95! It was hot but that didn’t stop them and their bridal party from being fun and of course hilarious. This couple has an amazing group of friends! Amanda has been a bridesmaid in a past wedding so working with her was such a breeze. Her and Chris were both very relaxed through the entire wedding planning process. You may remember their Bangor area engagement session this past fall along the Penobscot River (click here to see). Thankfully for Amanda it was way too hot for Chris’ grandmothers’ fur coat. After their ceremony we shot around in the country in Presque Isle. Amanda and Chris had an amazing antique car to drive around in and we definitely utilized it for photos! We were lucky enough to also find a huge patch of lupines to shoot in. Lupines are seriously my favorite! I wish they were in bloom all year long.
Once we
got to the reception Amanda and Chris knew how to have a party! Their DJ was awesome and his rules for how to take the garter off for Chris was extremely hilarious and had everyone dying with laughter. Chris put on a real good show during this section of the reception.
Amanda and Chris I wish you the happiest
life together and thank you for allowing me to capture this special and beautiful day in Presque Isle for you!
