Tara & Ethan ~ May 27, 2012 ~ Enfield Shaker Museum

A glorious warm day in late May at the simple yet elegant Shaker Museum in Enfield NH.  The large sunny rooms and open hallways provide great space for Tara, Ethan and the wedding party to prepare for the day.

Tara and Ethan say their vows in front of family and friends in the grassy open space between the Great Stone Dwelling and the Mary Keane Chapel before the graceful stone arches of the open roofed cloistered walk which connects the two buildings.

After the ceremony, a receiving line in front of the Mary Keene Chapel is an opportunity for some fun family and friend shots.  While friends and family enjoy cocktails hour in the Great Stone Dwelling, we took some formal (and not so formal) bridal party shots in the beautiful chapel.

On to great food, dancing and a live band at the reception in the spacious Great Stone Dwelling.
