Newport Beach House Wedding | Alexa + Chris

August 27, 2021

{Newport Beach House Wedding 8.27.21}

If you want to see a bride who is truly over-the-moon to marry her person, just scroll through this day. Alexa was the sweetest (+ most excited!!) bride and it showed in every single moment. Her smile? Absolutely infectious. Her energy? Through the roof. And the way Chris looked at her? MELTED. ME.

Their summer wedding at Newport Beach House in Rhode Island was one for the books — dreamy neutral tones, whimsical coastal touches, and golden sunlight that looked like it was pulled straight out of a vintage film roll (aka, my favorite). It was the kind of day that felt like a romantic movie and a dance party all in one.

From napatree to newport i do’s…

Before their wedding day, I had the sweetest time hanging with Alexa and Chris for their engagement session at Napatree Point. That golden light, the shoreline, their chemistry — I just knew their wedding day was going to be magic. And ohhh did they deliver.

They both had huge wedding parties (10 on each side!!) and the getting ready vibes were immaculate. Alexa and her girls rocked the cutest crop pajama sets, sipped champagne, and kicked things off with some balloon photos that were just too good. So many laughs, so much love, and that electric energy you only get when you’re surrounded by your favorite people hyping you up.

First look feels + coastal portrait perfection…

When it came time for their first look, I swear the world stood still. Alexa could not stop smiling (I don’t think she stopped all day honestly) and Chris’s face when he turned around? Literal heart-eyes. You could just feel how deep their connection runs.

We took their bride + groom portraits at Forty Steps in Newport and the backdrop? Absolutely unreal. Dramatic cliffs, ocean views, and that soft, glowy light that makes every frame look like art. These two made my job way too easy — they laughed, they twirled, they had the time of their lives.

An oceanfront ceremony + a reception that was a full blown party…

Their ceremony took place outside at Newport Beach House, right in front of that stunning blue water. Picture wicker vases overflowing with fluffy pampas grass, warm breezes, and a whole lot of happy tears. It was romantic, coastal, and boho all rolled into one.

And when they finally shared their first kiss as HUSBAND + WIFE (!!!) — the crowd went wild. It was one of those “wow, this is why I do what I do” moments. Pure joy, pure love.

Once the sun dipped low and we headed inside for the reception, things really took off. Their dance floor was packed all night long and the energy was out of control in the best way possible. From heartfelt toasts to the most epic dance moves (and maybe a few impromptu performances?), their reception was a total celebration of everything they are: fun, full of life, and absolutely perfect together.

This day had it all — sweet, romantic, and emotional one second… full-blown party mode the next. So grateful I got to be the one to capture it all in that dreamy, nostalgic style I love. Congrats Alexa + Chris — here’s to a lifetime of love, laughter, and the kind of joy that never fades.
