Portland Press Hotel Wedding | Portland Maine Wedding Photographers

Kristin and Sonny became engaged just as the pandemic got underway. That didn’t slow them down or deter them one bit. Just wait until you see their beautiful Press Hotel micro wedding in Portland, Maine! A micro wedding (as we define it) has fewer than 50 guests. But that doesn’t mean there was any less love!

During this summer of 2020, the weddings may have been smaller, but the love has certainly been strong. Kristin and Sonny wanted to elope, but Kristin’s father wanted them to have a small wedding. They chose everything perfectly for them. From our perspective, it was simply beautiful, intimate, and loving. At the end of the day, and forever, that’s what it all about!

It was a beautiful fall afternoon for the rooftop ceremony, some great food and beverage for cocktail hour, and then some really fun time together with us as their photographers in the Old Port, including a stop at the lobby of their former residence. The perfectly orchestrated day ended with a spectacular meal in a reserved section of Solo Italiano in downtown Portland. A truly special day in every way.
