A New Year’s Eve Wedding at the Village by the Sea
Paige and Ryder had a New Years’ Eve Village by the Sea wedding in Wells. Not during the day, but after dark, on the actual eve. And not inside, as you’d imagine a winter wedding, but outdoors, in sub-freezing temperature.
Paige and Ryder are that kind of tough, and those kind of Mainers. Look at the pictures – she didn’t even keep her fur wrap on for the ceremony – she was bare armed in the night air. Amazing.
They had blankets on every chair for their guests, and a special surprise delivery just before the ceremony. Browse to the beer-bitches, below.
This was an incredibly fun wedding, and a great crowd! Thank you all for keeping it entertaining for Lucia and I.
Before The Ceremony
The day started with excitement and anticipation as Paige and Ryder prepared for their big day. Both the bride and groom got ready at Village by the Sea, where the cozy rooms and serene atmosphere set the perfect tone for the day ahead. Paige’s radiant smile and Ryder’s cool composure made it clear that this was going to be a celebration to remember.

The Ceremony
These are the Beer Bros. As they walked down the aisle (disrobing), they revealed beer vests, and then liquor nips. It was that kind of wedding! Adding a personal and humorous twist to the ceremony, the couple’s friends, known as the Beer Bros., concealed canned beverages under their jackets and handed out cold beers to attendees as they made their way down the aisle. It was a lighthearted touch that had everyone laughing and instantly set the tone for the festive celebration ahead.
