Saltwater Farm Vineyard Wedding | Susanna + Kyle - wedding photographer in CT

{Saltwater Farm Vineyard 11.22.25}

There is something so special about a late November wedding at Saltwater Farm Vineyard. The light feels soft, the air is crisp, and everything slows down in the best way. Susanna and Kyle chose the weekend before Thanksgiving for their modern and elegant celebration, and it fit them so well. Their day felt warm and emotional with moments that still sit in my heart.

As a Mystic based wedding photographer, I love documenting days that feel honest and full of intention. Susanna and Kyle gave me so many sweet moments. Their images feel like art with that vintage film vibe that I love.

Their one-of-a-kind love story

Susanna and Kyle first connected on a dating app while she was training for the Boston Marathon. They talked for a while, planned a date, and finally met up a week or two after the race. They chose a barcade for their first date and shared laughs, kissed in the rain, and ended the night with drinks down the street. A friend spotted them and later told Susanna that it looked like they had already been together for a long time. That moment set the tone for everything that followed.

Their journey has been anything but simple, which is what makes it so beautiful. They dated years ago, broke up in 2019, and spent time apart. Kyle later realized she was the person he kept comparing others to. They reconnected on Instagram and met up in early 2024. A deep conversation about life and the future changed everything. They made their relationship official soon after, and everything felt right.

Susanna knew Kyle was the one because of the steady way he showed up for her. His gentle heart, his effort, and the way he loved her through every season made her feel safe and grateful. Kyle knew Susanna was the one after they reunited. He felt lucky to have her back in his life and could finally picture a long and joyful future with her.

Their proposal story feels like a movie. They traveled to Iceland, visited a snowy waterfall with a photographer, and Kyle dropped to one knee in the mist and cold. He asked her to spend the rest of her life with him. They left the falls glowing and full of excitement.

The wedding day at Saltwater Farm

Their November wedding felt calm, romantic, and full of intention. Susanna got ready in the sweetest morning light as her dress hung beside her. Her look was elegant and clean with hair and makeup styled by Wells Street Spa. Her gown from Ceremony Boston photographed like a dream with its simple lines and soft texture.

Kyle looked so classic in his suit from Bonobos. Their first look was emotional with tears, laughs, and that quiet moment that couples always remember. They also shared private vows that were tender and so meaningful.

Portraits around Saltwater Farm were soft and cinematic. The wooden gate, the bare branches, and the muted fall colors created the perfect backdrop. Susanna’s veil caught the light in the prettiest way. This is where my vintage film loving heart lives.

Their ceremony took place inside the warm vineyard space with beautiful florals by Rose Hill Bloom Co. The entire room felt modern and elegant with soft lighting by Dawson Entertainment. Gourmet Galley brought such a cozy and seasonal touch to dinner. Their cake by Keegan Kreations was simple and timeless. Once the band started, the entire room came alive. The Emergency Broadcast System kept everyone on the dance floor all night.

I loved watching them soak the night in. At one point Susanna lifted her cocktail toward me with the biggest smile. The fairy lights were glowing in the background and it felt like a full circle moment in their story.

Their future together

Susanna and Kyle cannot wait to travel, buy a home in 2026, and grow their family. They talk about raising two kids, maybe even twins. They also dream about slow mornings, adventures in Europe, and growing old together. Their focus is building a loving and supportive life.

Their wedding at Saltwater Farm Vineyard felt like the start of something steady and full of heart. I feel so grateful that they trusted me to document it.
