Cliff and Kate’s Coastal Maine Wedding

A few months before Cliff and Kate’s wedding we got an email from one of our favorite clients (who you will see on the blog soon with her family) that her step-sister was getting married and she was planning the entire dream wedding for her. Cliff and Kate wanted something different and less traditional for their wedding day and went with Moroccan inspiration and were married at a private family estate in Scarborough, Maine. A few days before the wedding Hurricane Hugo was scheduled to make an appearance which we were all a little nervous about but the day was absolutely beautiful. Kate’s sister (also named Kate!) did such an amazing job on the planning and details of this wedding. Judy from Flora Fauna was also heavily involved and her work is always so creative (love, love, love her!!). This post is going to be very detail and photo heavy so I will let the photos tell the story… but it was such a great experience to work with Cliff and Kate and their families… I have been dying to blog this wedding! Thank you Cliff and Kate (and Kate!) for everything and letting us be a part of your day, I hope we can continue to work together to document both of your families!
