Taren and Chris were married on a beautiful Thursday afternoon at the gorgeous Retreat at French’s Point.  The beautiful flowers were designed by Jean at Verona Island Flowers, and the delicious cake was made by the talented folks at Sticky Fingers.  All of the other beautiful details were supplied by Jessika, the owner of the Retreat, and Taren herself (who did a wonderful job designing many of the details)!

I love the story of Taren and Chris- they actually went to elementary school (and middle and high school) together, but didn’t connect until a few years ago.  Taren knew that Chris was the one for her when he brought her a gift- a brick.  Not just any brick- it was a brick from their elementary school which was being torn down to make way for a new building.  He wanted her to forever have a piece of the place where they first met. 

Even though they were married mid-week, Taren and Chris had a great turnout of friends and family for their intimate destination wedding in Maine.  Taren’s two boys walked her down the aisle, beaming all of the way.  They celebrated with an incredible lobster bake, and ended the party that evening at the Farm.  It was an absolutely gorgeous day, and Taren and Chris gave me two opportunities to steal them away to take photographs on the beach and around the property.  Here are a few of my favorites from the day:
