JARED + RACHEL | BAYSIDE BOWL WEDDING PHOTOS IN PORTLAND

Do you ever experience those moments where the universe just seems to line everything up perfectly? This wedding was definitely one of those for me. When Matthew and I moved to Portland, Maine one of my previous couples reached out to me and told me that they had just recommended me to their friends, Jared and Rachel, who were getting married there this year. I’m so incredibly thankful that they did, because this wedding was INCREDIBLE.

Jared and Rachel, are a sweet, laid-back, and kind couple who love their family, their friends, good beer, their dog (of course!), and good times. That last part is probably why they chose to get married at Bayside Bowl here in Portland, because if you can get married anywhere, you should definitely pick somewhere fun. Fun it was, too! We had their first look at Deering Oaks Park and then after some truly exciting bridal party and group photos, we made our way a few blocks over to Bayside Bowl. There we were met with a beautifully sunny fall day. After a beautiful ceremony full of literal laughs and tears, we celebrated cocktail hour and the reception with dancing, and of course, bowling!

I hope you all love experiencing their wedding photos as much I loved getting to photograph them. Congratulations, Jared and Rachel! Thank you so much for allowing me to tell the story of your special day.
