Andrea & Greg | Wedding | Boston Harbor Hotel

When I walked outside of the hotel just after the bride had finished getting ready, I saw the car everyone was talking about. The grooms 1967 Lincoln Continental that he bought in California and drove across country. This car made a statement and made for some great pics to! I knew right then that this wedding was going to be FUN!

Andrea had the makings of an amazing wedding from the start. She began with her truly wonderful wedding planner Linnea Tangorra of Tangorra Wedding Planning. She then made the easy selection of the Boston Harbor Hotel |Wharf Room | as her venue of choice. Add John from Blue Guava to masterfully create the floral design, cool lighting from Boston Uplights, the 1967 Lincoln, Super Cool Bride and Groom, and whamm… a wedding photographer’s dream! Oh and don’t forget to notice the Brides Pug, Pirates, and Bobble Heads!
