Claire & Dave’s Ocean Edge Wedding ~ Cape Cod Photographers
We had so much fun at Claire & Dave’s Boston wedding that we couldn’t wait to get back to the Cape for part two, which was held two days later at the lovely Ocean Edge Resort in Brewster.
Their second wedding had a completely different feel to their first, which, if you ask me, is how it should be if you’re lucky enough to marry to the person you love…twice.
Although her dress was the same, Claire had some modifications done that made it feel completely different. And, like her first wedding, at the end of the night, she slipped out of her gorgeous wedding gown and into another sexy little number, this time an ivory & gold dress with some serious wow factor! So fun!
Claire also changed her hairstyle for wedding #2 and opted for a different, although equally as fabulous, pair of shoes. Dave traded in his tux for a more casual, though seriously stylish, steel blue suit and orange tie that perfectly matched their fall color scheme.
Friends & family wore winter parkas over their party clothes and wrapped tightly in blankets & pashminas provided by Claire & Dave for the breezy, beachside ceremony. Although it was colder than a summer beach wedding, the cold brought everyone closer and created a warm atmosphere of joy & delight that was befitting this wonderful couple.
And, as expected, those happy, love-filled feelings carried over to the reception, which was held in Ocean Edge’s tented Pavillion, where Cape wedding planner, Allison Liset of Elegant Engagements, worked her magic. There were wonderful toasts, first dances and friends & family partied late into the night.
I wouldn’t say one wedding topped the other; rather, they were each perfect representations of the incredible love Claire & Dave share and we were thrilled to have been invited to be a part of them both.
Here are some of our favorite moments from Claire & Dave’s incredible Cape Cod Wedding, including the below shot of Claire’s super cute Badgley Mischka shoes.

Claire’s adorable nephew, Kiernan, entertains himself with a computer game, while his mom helps his auntie get ready for her big day. I love this moment…how his pant legs are pulled up, his jacket bunched and the look of total concentration on his sweet little face as happy chaos floats all around him. Priceless.

Claire takes in the moment as her super sweet sister/co-MOH and ceremony officiant, Mary, adjusts her dress.

Dave & his guys…

Claire is all smiles as she prepares to walk down the aisle with her father, Kevin. Completely different setting from the church shot of Claire and her dad during Claire & Dave’s first wedding…but the joy & excitement is exactly the same…and I love that!

Can’t you just feel the joy (and the cold) in this next shot as Dave gets “walked down the aisle” by his super sweet parents, Louise & Rick? Love it!

Claire & Dave were literally surrounded by family & friends during their beachside ceremony. Folks gathered in for warmth and for a close up view as these two wonderful people exchanged their very heart-felt vows.

The look of love…

Although it was chilly, the beach was gorgeous and the perfect backdrop for Claire & Dave’s wedding…

Love this moment…

And this…You think they’re excited to be married? Yeay for love!

This could be my favorite moment of the day…completely lost in their own world and in the joy of the moment!

Claire’s good friend and fellow teacher, Christina, had undergone surgery on her broken leg 10 days before the wedding, but that didn’t stop her from participating in this special day. I love this moment as Christina gets a hand from the girls. It was hard going pushing the wheelchair across the wet ground and the girls were giving the guys in the bridal party a hard time…telling them not to worry, that they had it covered. Three cheers for girl power!

This old stone tower, whose history is a bit of a mystery, has been standing tall since the Mansion was part of an 1800 acre private summer home, complete with farms and a game reserve. Today, it makes for a beautiful backdrop for a wedding portrait.

so pretty….

I love Dave’s face in this next one…he is just bubbling over with love & happiness. It’s hard not to smiling looking at him here…

Swooooon….

I’m not sure which I react to more in this next one….how incredibly close Claire & Dave are to one another or that gorgeous ivy, draping down the tower behind them. love love love this next one!

Loooooove this next photos of Dave dancing with his mom. Check out her face! Is that happiness or what?

Dave’s sister-in-law and dad get down and boogie! So fun!

I love this awesome shot Andy caught of the crowd dancing to the always popular “Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey. I just love how everyone is holding hands or grabbing onto someone….there is just such a joyful connectedness I feel when I see this image. Love it!

Thank you to Megan Yaps of Ocean Edge and Allison Liset of Elegant Engagements and all of the other fabulous vendors who helped make Claire & Dave’s wedding was absolutely perfect!

Ohmygoodness. These are just perfect! They have fairytale written all over them!!!!!! Each moment you’ve captured is stunning! Love the little guy playing on the floor and the bride getting dressed looks like it was for a magazine shoot! I love all the shots where there’s busy-ness all around them but time seems to stand still with the couple! Truly beautiful! I love the stone tower and the couple walking to the beach. I actually can’t pick a favorite!! 🙂 Thank you!
