Meredith & Matt: Portland Country Club Wedding

Meredith & Matt were high school sweethearts who later fell in love during their undergraduate years at Boston College. Their wedding was a long time coming, and the days leading up to Meredith and Matt’s wedding were filled with anticipation.

Besides the usual excitement of getting married, the near constant bad weather weather that has plagued New England over the past few months continued with renewed vigor. Meredith & Matt had planned a beautiful outdoor ceremony overlooking Casco Bay on The Eastern Promenade of Portland, but the impending rain forced them inside.

Luckily, Matt & Meredith’s reception site (The Portland Country Club) was willing and able to host their ceremony indoors because of the rain.

The Portland Country Club’s rolling fairways leading to the ocean. Just before their wedding, the clouds parted leaving them a beautiful day.

Matt sees Meredith for the first time as she’s escorted by her dad.

Exchanging rings.

The rooftop deck at the PCC… a fabulous inclement weather alternative.

Real emotion and joy as Meredith looks over at her parents while walking back down the isle.

Immediately after the ceremony Meredith literally just fell into his arms for a hug. So sweet.

Their first embrace after the ceremony. You can feel it.

Beautiful floral arrangements by Stephanie Pilk at Flora Home. Great people, great designs!

The first dance.

Meredith’s dad presented Matt (an incorrigible Yankee fan) with his very own Red Sox cap. Nice job dad!!

Meredith & her dad having their dance. Such an obvious love for one another. Really beautiful to see.

Busting a move on the dance floor.

Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ On a Prayer” gets them every time.

The impromptu bouquet toss…

I’d say she was more than a little surprised to have caught it!!

Hand in hand, leaving Mackworth Island.

Meredith and Matt, thank you so much for having us at your beautiful wedding! Despite Matt being a Yankee fan… it was a wonderful experience getting to know you and your families!
