Originally, Tina and Tom had planned their Boothbay Harbor, Maine wedding at Linekin Bay Resort for June 2021. However, there had been a surge in Covid cases that spring, so they decided to postpone the wedding to keep things as safe as possible for their friends and family. One of the bonuses that came with waiting? They had added a new daughter to their family, who toddled around adorably throughout the day, even stealing the spotlight on the dance floor a time or two.
It’s time to share our favorite Maine and New England wedding photos from 2021! This blog post is incredibly overdue, as it is almost July, and we are well into our 2022 wedding season. We were a little nervous heading into our 2021 wedding season because, after all of the 2020 postponements and couples who had held off on planning a wedding, it was going to be one of the biggest wedding seasons we’ve had in the past 12 years. With such a big season, the blog got pushed to the side a bit as I made it a priority to get our clients their photos as quickly as possible. I worried nobody would care to see this post so far into 2022, but since it’s always my favorite post to share every year, I had to do it.
2021 was an exciting one! We started it out with a Millinocket wedding during a blizzard the first weekend of January. We returned to many favorite spots like Fuller Gardens, The Contented Sole, western Maine, Bar Harbor, and Acadia National Park. We finally got to photograph weddings in three of our favorite spots in Maine: Gouldsboro, Aragosta in Deer Isle, and Lubec! And we photographed a wedding on our third of the five Cranberry Isles: Sutton Island. (We photographed a wedding on Great Cranberry Island in 2013 and Isleford in 2020).
Sancie and Aaron are both first responders, so finding time to slip away for a backyard wedding in Northport, Maine was a challenge. Aaron’s family has owned the property for years, and after spending time there together, they knew it was the perfect spot to host family and friends for a picnic lunch after exchanging vows.
When I started working on the blog post for our best Maine and New England wedding photos of 2020, I was sure it would be much shorter than usual because COVID-19 hit and shrunk our season considerably. Unfortunately, though, one thing Coronavirus could not change was my inability to scale down my favorites! So this blog post isn’t any shorter at all.
At the end of 2019, we were to have a wedding almost every weekend of the busy season. However, when early spring hit, many of our clients made the tough decision to jump ship and postpone to 2021 or later. Nevertheless, a few couples hung on and worked incredibly hard to keep their weddings safe. They cut guest lists to under 25 people, incorporated hand sanitizer into the decor, quarantined with those who would be attending their wedding, wore masks as much as possible, and made sure everyone tested. We’ve thanked our clients a million times for keeping things as safe for us as possible, but they deserve another one here. Thank you! After all of the postponements, we ended up with only five micro weddings in 2020. However, we could still travel throughout Maine to Goose Rocks Beach in Kennebunkport, Linekin Bay Resort in Boothbay Harbor, and we even got to return to the beautiful Cranberry Isles by boat! In addition, we took a small step over the border to the Snowvillage Inn in New Hampshire. Finally, we photographed a delightful backyard wedding at the Watertown, Massachusetts home of one of our couples.
