One of the most memorable aspects of this wedding was the bridal look. Gwen chose a breathtaking seaglass and gold wedding dress that shimmered like the ocean under the soft rain. The dress, with its ethereal hues, perfectly complemented the coastal charm of Plymouth.

Rather than letting the impending rain dampen spirits, the couple embraced the weather, choosing to exchange vows in the beautiful gardens of the Mirbeau Inn, overlooking the pond. The soft pitter-patter of raindrops starting as the ceremony concluded created a truly intimate and romantic atmosphere. After their ceremony the couple took a second to say hello to their zoom guests who couldn’t be there before taking some just married photos with me.
