Kate & TJ | Storybook Wedding at The Connors Center, Dover, MA

September 23, 2015

When you think of fairytale weddings, this one tops the charts. This wedding had it all. It had a gothic, classic feel, full of elegant details like a gorgeous stone staircase that was to die for! Kate’s gown was simply out of a storybook! She literally looked like a royal princess. This wedding couldn’t have been more beautiful!

The details were perfected down to the stationary by Mara Weiner of Allure Invitations. 20150905-132025-Cardona 20150905-122440-CardonaThe girls were prepped and pampered to flawless beauty by Kristen Kuhlilian and Amanda DeGouff.20150905-133518-CardonaKate’s mom looked BEAUTIFUL!! I was in love with her dress, actually I think everyone was! Kate and TJ dedicated so much thanks and love throughout the entire day to this amazing woman.20150905-145959-CardonaKate’s Lazaro dress certainly was the highlight of the day. This dress had it all! 20150905-124042-Cardonablog-20150905-122218-CardonaKate’s mom helped her into her dress, and then this moment happened.
