Keith and Alexis chose to be married on the beachfront of the Wychmere Beach Club in Harwich, MA. They selected one of the best weather days of this fall season; it was a perfect 75 degrees with no wind and clear blue skies. The smell of fresh salt air mixed with a hint of hydrangea flowers that adorned their wedding altar above. Marvelous would be an understatement to describe this couple's

Nick and Donna had a wonderful wedding planned at the Wychmere Beach Club in Harwich, MA. The wind was whipping along the elegant grounds of the Beach Club - it was quite misty, really.

Paul and Leanora were one of those couples who made the best of a tough day posed by the threat of Hurricane Irene; Paul said that he never wanted to hear the name 'Irene' again, given that the hotel they stayed in with their guests was closed, sending he and the maid of honor on a wild ride to find new accommodations for their family and friends. But they did so, and the Daniel Webster Inn took

It poured buckets this past weekend, yet Katie and Mickey still enjoyed their intimate service held at the Sheraton Four Points Hotel in Eastham, MA. As we waited for guests to arrive, beautiful music was played by the DJ, and we watched children playing at the hotel's pool.

Dan and Kelly had to decide about whether or not they marry on the beach, the weather forecast being rather dismal, with intermittent rain showers, and possibly thunderstorms from the humidity. They'd made such wonderful plans for a marriage on this expansive beach front, and they weren't about to give in to mother nature's behavior. The wedding ceremony on the beach was still a go!And they

I feel that this day was such an extra special day for me in that I performed the baptism of the baby girl of a couple I'd married nearly two years ago at the Chatham Bars Inn, Jared and Rebecca Toman.
