Kellie + Josh at the Inn by the Sea
An Intimate Destination Wedding at Inn by the Sea
Kellie and Josh’s wedding at Inn by the Sea in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, was the epitome of an intimate destination wedding. Nestled along the stunning Maine coastline, this venue provided the perfect setting for their heartfelt celebration. The couple’s journey to their big day was filled with love, resilience, and the natural beauty of New England’s fall season.
From the moment I arrived at the Inn by the Sea, I knew it was going to be an unforgettable day. Kellie and Josh drove up from New Jersey to get married on the coast of Maine, and they’re plan was to have an incredible photo shoot to mark their wedding. How cool is that for me?
Morning Preparations: A Relaxing Start at Inn by the Sea
The day began with Kellie and Josh getting ready in the cozy, light-filled rooms of the Inn by the Sea. The venue’s serene ambiance was the perfect backdrop for the couple to prepare for their special day. Kellie’s dress, with delicate lace details, was a breathtaking choice, while Josh’s tailored suit reflected timeless sophistication. The atmosphere was calm yet filled with excitement as they anticipated the moments ahead.
A Ceremony Filled with Love — Indoors and Out
Initially planned for the lush back lawn of the Inn by the Sea, the ceremony’s location shifted indoors to the ballroom due to a sudden rain shower. But the indoor setting, adorned with elegant decor and warm lighting, created an equally intimate and romantic atmosphere. Watching Kellie and Josh exchange vows in front of their closest family members was an emotional experience that left everyone—myself included—teary-eyed.
A Brief Reception at Inn by the Sea
The celebration continued with an intimate reception back at the Inn by the Sea. Kellie and Josh shared heartfelt toasts with their parents, savoring every moment of their special day. The venue’s dining team crafted a delicious menu that reflected Maine’s culinary delights, from fresh seafood to locally sourced ingredients. It was the perfect way to end an unforgettable day.
A Picturesque Photoshoot at Fort Williams Park
After the ceremony, we ventured to Fort Williams Park in Cape Elizabeth for the couple’s photoshoot. Against the backdrop of the iconic Portland Head Light lighthouse, Kellie and Josh’s love story came to life. The dramatic coastal scenery and vibrant fall foliage added a magical touch to their portraits. Capturing their laughter and the gentle way they interacted with one another was an absolute joy.
