Once Upon a Time...


Once upon a time, Sue Austin gave birth to a beautiful baby girl named Anne. She dreamed of planning her wedding one day. She pictured her daughter wearing a gorgeous gown and long, flowing veil, fit for a princess.

All of Sue Austin's dreams came true for Anne.

Sue booked Anne's wedding over a year ago so we were dying to meet Anne. We got a sneak peek of her on Snap! Photography's blog, wearing the sassiest skirt and heels, skipping around Castle Island in Boston with her fiance, Tony. We were not disappointed when we met her.

Anne is one of the sweetest, nicest brides we have ever met. She has a smile that lights up any room, the cutest giggle, and was super easy to please. It is no surprise that Tony is smitten with his princess.

Anne's ceremony was in Bristol and her reception was at The Glen. She had this super swanky black and white theme, just perfect for a Boston bride. Check out Anne and Tony's room at the Glen, courtesy of our fabulously fun friends at Snap!


Nothing says celebration like a glass of bubbly to start the morning...
Salud!

Okay, let's talk about Anne's dreamy hair. It's all natural. Pinky swear.
I just couldn't get over it.
No one, and I mean NO ONE, has hair like this. The color was amazing, something that could never be duplicated. She had this long-thick-sandy-beige-blonde hair with sparkly golden highlights. Incredible. Anne was probably getting sick of us drooling all over it. But probably not, because I can't picture Anne ever getting annoyed.

Here we are getting started....

See what I mean?

Anne wanted volume, not curl.
Here we are brushing out the set...

This was Anne all. day. long. Adorable.

Stage 1 of the style--the blow dry.
Stage 2--the backcombing.
Stage 3--the polishing.

Here is Anne's lovely mother, Sue.
Every mom loves to be queen for the day.

How pretty is Sue's comb?

Every princess must have her court.
Ella, the lovely flower girl, even had a American Girl Doll made to look just like her!

Fancy-shmancy!
Look at that sassy pose!

Anne's turn for the magical make up chair...



Isn't this comb just beautiful? It was Anne's 'borrowed' from her bridesmaid.

The long flowy veil...

The princess and her 'court'...

Now it's hard to compete with the Snap!-pers, but these were too pretty to pass up!
The gown. Can you believe this belt?
And pockets too? Oh my!
Pretty, pretty.

I love how natural and flawless Anne's make up looks...kudos Amy!
A peaceful moment before...

Anne and her prince!

We know Anne and Tony will live happily ever after...
The End:-)
