I beautiful blue eyed tennis sensation locked eyes with a handsome well dressed cricket player across a crowded silent disco. They fell in LOVE and here we are at their Belle Mer Island House Wedding.
Guess which player this one is?
Omar gifting cufflinks to his best mates. Omar is from Australia, so that’s why these guys are mates, not pals or buddies, but either way they are good friends.
Warning! Gratuitous tennis and cricket puns ahead!
Omar and Colleen had headphones on at the silent disco, but I guess not much needed to be said once they spotted each other, it was a match.
Omar is a very confident guy, that’s a good thing, if he had a case of the Yips he might never have won the lovely maiden. As it is, Omar is an All-rounder so naturally he bowled her over.
Colleen and Omar had a first look at the Newport Marriott before heading to the Elms Mansion for their formal photos.
The Elms Mansion is an absolutely stunning property and perfect for formal portraits.
Colleen and Omar strolling the grounds. They have relocated to Bermuda for work, which may lead you to wonder…why on earth would they have their wedding in New England?
See photo below.
The day was pretty much a comedy show from the very start… not sure who was the funniest but many many laughs were had.
So stunning.
This might be my favorite spot at The Elms, these incredible trees form a canopy that feels like being indoors.
Love these kind of moments!
Being formal. Just because.
We met back up with the family at Belle Mer for some family portraits. Colleen’s peeps…
And Omar’s lovely family who traveled here from Australia. His sister pictured right, came with her husband and 4 children. What an amazing sister!
More of Omar’s beautiful family.
This photo really pulls on my heartstrings. Grandfatherly talk, wonder what wisdom he’s imparting?
Laughing and lining up for the sunset ceremony.
Trish and I were kind of crazy for these kids, they were so beautiful, sweet, and well behaved.
Always a classic moment, always a favorite.
Being cute with their vows.
Exactly! What perfect timing, like the sun is saying, “And… scene.”
Colleen gets a hug from her proud mom.
Green Lion created the amazing florals.
Sharing their first dance.
Such a fun day from start to finish, it was a Grand Slam for sure.
Love Love Love!!!! Thank you so much Trish and Mariah for capturing such an amazing day!! We loved re-living everything again through your beautiful photos. You truly did an amazing job and we are unbelievably happy! THANK YOU!!!
