Kate and Bryan’s wedding was held at Aldworth Manor, a gorgeous historic estate in Harrisville New Hampshire. Despite the venue’s location in the mountains of the Northeast, this property has the aesthetic of a Tuscan villa, with classic architecture, manicured gardens, and sprawling views of Mount Monadnock. The property is famous for its monarch butterflies, which decorate the grounds of the manor all summer and in to the fall. The butterflies greeted Kate in her wedding dress when we arrived, creating a photo op that was right out of a fairytale.

Kate and Bryan are long time sweethearts who met in their college days at Babson. They credit Kate’s “big sister” from her sorority with setting them up, as it was she who encouraged Bryan to approach Kate for the first time. They are a perfect example of a couple who have grown up with each other, and grown in to each other; they support, encourage, and empower one another everyday, and it shows.
