down by the sea Although Liz and Adam went to middle school and high school together, they didn’t bump into each other until years later, while they both were working at not-for-profits. Liz offered to help Adam work on a grant, and the two started to spend more and more time together. The rest was, as they say, history. Liz was working from home in their kitchen on a normal Thursday when Adam came home from work. Upon walking in the door, he proposed, completely surprising Liz and catching her off guard. To celebrate, Adam took Liz to dinner, and she was ecstatic to see both of their families there waiting. “Family is so important to us, and we were thrilled to be with everyone on this special occasion,” Liz reminisced. To make the event even more memorable, their engagement day also marks the last day before her parents’ wedding anniversary and the first day of theirs. “I hope our marriage is as happy and successful as theirs!” Liz added. Behind the Inspiration: Painting is one of the bride’s favorite hobbies, so the soft floral-patterned fabric on the Ted Baker bridesmaid dresses became the inspiration for the couple’s spring soiree.

Waterside Romance: Liz and Adam loved the Channel Club from their very first visit. Although the month of April isn’t warm enough for a full-on beach wedding, the couple was able to carry out the style since the facility is right on the water. Additionally, the full-length windows were an immediate attraction for Liz and Adam. “Since the Channel Club faces the west side, we loved the idea of having a beautiful sunset over the water. It was also only one mile away from the church, so that made it easy for our guests to get from one place to the next,” Liz added. Capturing Love and Happiness: After meeting with Susan Tibak of Something Blue Wedding Photography, Liz and Adam knew right away she was the photographer who they wanted to capture their wedding day. “She was thoughtful and meticulous about every detail and lots of fun to spend time with,” Liz mentioned. And, although it rained throughout the day’s events, you would never know it because Susan flawlessly made it look like the sun was shining in the photos captured.
