Cora and Mike

Angel and Anchor Farm Sterling, Connecticut

I first met Cora and Mike a few years back at Birdhouse Coffee to hear about their dream day. I absolutely fell in love with her at first sight! She’s so kind, generous and hilarious. We also have the Sims in common (classic game!...who used/uses the cheat codes still?). Her joy of friendship was gifted to me via two of my former brides/friends Kerry and Amber. Cora is even paying it forward with her sweet friends Jackson and Jordan.

I loved capturing their spring engagement at Wickham Park, learning more about their interests and seeing their adorable chemistry.

Their wedding day was nothing short of extraordinary. The decor, the drinks, the laughter (thanks, Julia, for singing “I Like Big Butts” to make the wedding party laugh) and the love was prevalent and raw. The donkeys were also adorable and oh that vintage car swoon

I absolutely LOVE these two and am so grateful to call them friends as well as clients. I cannot wait to capture their next adventure!

Love you, Cora and Mike! Congratulations!!!

All our love,
