New Hampshire Catholic Summer Wedding at Kent House of Chester|| Grace and Jon

This blush and navy summer wedding was the perfect way to kick off the summer! Their wedding mass was at the stunning St. Joseph Cathedral in Manchester, New Hampshire followed with one of the prettiest tent receptions at Kent House of Chester!

Grace and Jon are two of the most genuine and intentional people with hearts so full of faith and love for family. It amazed me how each detail of their day was so carefully planned in a way that honored the Lord. From the consecrations at their wedding Mass to the miraculous medals that they gave out as favors, their love for the Catholic faith inspired me greatly.
Please enjoy some of the highlights from such a beautiful day! Thank you for letting me share in your day, John and Grace!

The entire day from start to finish was so relaxed and joyful! There were many sweet moments of the day but one of my favorites was right when I walked into the bride’s getting ready suite. Sitting calmly on the couch was the the lovely bride Grace reading books to her little sisters! She could have been rushing around and worrying about little details but instead put her family first.

Grace’s mother and grandmother wore these beautiful, long gloves at both of their weddings! It was so special to see such a timeless heirloom passed down through 3 generations!

Grace, you are so beautiful and your name could not suit you more perfectly!!

Grace’s father had the sweetest reaction to seeing her in her wedding dress! His first daughter to be married and you could just see how much he loved her and was proud of her

.

St. Joseph’s Cathedral was just stunning. A perfect place for a Catholic Wedding Mass!

Jon and Grace did a consecration to the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Joseph after receiving communion! It was my first time seeing a full consecration done at a wedding mass and it was so beautiful!

It nearly brought me to tears at how emotional she was that her brother was finally married. You could see how close her and John are and how much they love each other!

Before the final dance, Grace pulled aside her sweet friend and fantastic wedding planner Gina from Events by Gina Marie and presented her with the bridal bouquet! She gave it as a sign of thanks for all of the incredible prep and planning that Gina had done to help make their wedding possible! For all you brides out there looking for a amazing wedding planner, Gina is your girl!

Jon and Grace, thank you so much for letting me a part of your beautiful wedding day!
May God bless you and your marriage abundantly for years to come!

Thank you to these amazing vendors who helped make this day possible!
