Boston Public Library Wedding: Jacleen & Michael

acleen and Michael's late summer wedding took place in one of Boston's most beautiful venues, the Boston Public Library. It was such a romantic affair - these two could't take their eyes off one another. On a gorgeous, sunny day, we hit a few of the city's great spots for portraits - Trinity Church, the willow trees in the Public Garden and of course, the Courtyard of the BPL. The ceremony took place at Our Lady of Perpetual Help, a large, dramatic cathedral that was beautiful to photograph. Then we headed towards the Library for additional portraits, cocktail hour and reception in Bates Hall. I always love watching the first dance in this room! Shout outs to the Wilson Stevens band, who got everyone moving on the dance floor, Table & Tulip for the amazing floral designs and The Catered Affair who executed it all seamlessly. Thank you to Bailey Quinlan for second shooting!
