Summer Nantucket Elopement on Film
When Meg and Darryl reached out to me to capture their intimate backyard elopement in Nantucket, I knew it was going to be something special. Not only was this their first time visiting the island, but it was also a deeply personal celebration, surrounded by the love of family and the natural beauty of Nantucket.
The setting for Meg and Darryl's elopement was nothing short of picturesque. Nestled in a private part of the island, the two beautiful houses on the property became their personal getting-ready spaces for the day. While Meg prepared for the ceremony at one house, Darryl and his family gathered at the other. The energy was calm yet excited as everyone prepped for what would be an incredibly intimate, meaningful event. The blend of the ocean breeze and the warmth of family made everything feel even more special. One of the most touching moments of the day was the ceremony itself. Darryl’s sister, who officiated the event, made the occasion even more heartfelt. As the two exchanged vows, you could feel the connection between them and their families, who were witnessing this beautiful moment in a place they had never been before.
After the ceremony, the celebration continued in the backyard, where everyone gathered to raise a glass of champagne to the newlyweds. It was a joyful moment filled with laughter, hugs, and stories from their families. With only their closest family around them, it was a time to soak in the love and start their new chapter with those who mattered most. To cap off their special day, Meg, Darryl, and their families headed to Breeze Restaurant at The Nantucket Hotel, where they enjoyed a delicious meal with their closest loved ones. It was the perfect end to a perfect day. This intimate elopement was a reminder that love doesn't need grand gestures to be celebrated. Sometimes, it’s the quiet moments, surrounded by the ones you love, that create the most lasting memories. It was such an honor to capture this beautiful day for Meg and Darryl. Their Nantucket elopement was truly one of a kind – simple, intimate, and full of love.
