* emilie inc.: Molly + Bryan's Wedding at the Prouts Neck Country Club in Maine

Molly and Bryan's wedding was four years in the making.  She was just 18 when she was engaged and the two have been together for six.  They are the living embodiment of love, probably the wisest young love that I've witnessed.  The formative years they've been together have already tested their relationship, and Molly wrote on her wedding blog beautiful, heartfelt, words of wisdom that she has learned since she and Bryan found each other in the universe (as they would say!). 

The two planned wonderful seaside nuptials on Prouts Neck in Maine where Molly spent her childhood summers. Her garter was made from her mother's wedding dress and the necklace she wore (that was transported cross-country) has been worn by almost all the women in her family.  Molly and Bryan are self-proclaimed nerds and science geeks, so fittingly Bryan donned a bow tie with a chemistry beaker pattern.  He gifted her a heart of petrified sand that had been struck by lightening.  She gifted him a GoPro camera for swimming with dolphins on their Bermuda honeymoon and to add to his his gear-set as a budding photography hobbyist.  Their first look was at Cannon Rock, a place of inspiration for Winslow Homer.  Molly has a lot of family history on Prouts and was able to be yet another woman in her family to marry in St. James Church.  The bride and groom were trotted between locales via horse and buggy (and I was lucky enough to be able to join!).  After beach photos near one of her family homes, the reception got underway at the Prouts Neck Country Club. 

The summer solstice couldn't have been a more beautiful day with Molly and Bryan's wedding, capped with a gorgeous fire-hued sunset, the dearest friends and family, and fabulous dancing that was often accompanied by everyone singing along to the wide variety of genres played.  Four years to the date of the "infamous cat bite" that started it all (Molly wrote about this on their wedding blog - one of her cat's bit her, resulting in a hospital stay and quite the health scare that prompted Bryan to consider his future), these two soul mates were finally married -- and, frankly, it was awesome to witness this and be a part of their day!

Molly and Bryan, I hope you are had a blast in Bermuda (I want to see the GoPro footage with the dolphins)!  It was such a pleasure meeting all your friends and family, folks that I know are near and dear to your heart.  Thank you so much for allowing me to document your big day.  I wish you all the best, and please say hello the next time you're visiting Prouts!
