I was so excited to work with Ben and Elif on their wedding day- not only did they meet after a softball rivalry (they were on different teams) when their teams got together for a friendly game of Flip Cup, but they were also planning a gorgeous wedding in a spot that no one had ever held a wedding before.  They chose the pier at Bayside, a community in Belfast, Maine, because Ben had been going there for years with his family.  They had a lot of fun things planned for their wedding, including a Flip Cup Tournament and a belly dancer!  Elif’s family is from Turkey, and she wanted to blend the two cultures together in a fun and unique way.

Of course, I was over the moon when BWed Exclusive wanted to publish the wedding- not only was the wedding stunning, but the couple is absolutely fabulous, too!  You can see their entire feature on BWed Exclusive, and you can see their original post on my Maine Wedding Photographer blog.
