Dan & Nicole Belknap Mill Laconia, NH

Bringing another beautiful wedding to you from August of this year. This couple trudged through mud for the perfect shot for their engagement session, so I knew they would be great to work with on their wedding day! Just today my husband and I got back from a night away at the same inn where this bride got ready with her girls. I liked it so much I had to take my hubby there for a little getaway.

Anyways, let's get back to their wedding day. There were a lot of great moments from this day, but let me tell you about just a few of them.

1. The first look! I know not everyone is into the first look. I know some people think it ruins the experience of seeing the bride come down the aisle. But let me tell you, first looks are some of my favorite parts of a wedding. It's an opportunity for just the two of you to have a moment in the midst of all the craziness of your wedding day. AND it's a much better photo opportunity for sure! Just wait until you see his reaction. It's SO SWEET!

2. The decor! This bride had a great eye. The space was awesome, but she made it even better with what she brought to the table. I'll share quite a few of those, especially the "best day ever" sign which I now feel like EVERYONE should have at their wedding because it was so awesome!

3. The party! WOW! I think the party went on far after I left, but this was the kind of group that made me want to jump in on the action and get my groove on. It was such a fun time and the bride and groom made everyone want to join in!

So, here's a look into Dan + Nicole's best day ever.
