The $65K Wedding

The Details

After connecting on match.com, Fallon and Bill met for a drink in April 2009. Although she was initially skeptical about online dating, the pair hit it off instantly. An in-person meeting for a quick drink turned into a five-hour conversation that ended only because the bar closed. By October, Bill was spreading a blanket for a picnic, uncorking a bottle of wine, reciting a love letter he crafted, and asking Fallon to marry him. “It just felt right,” she says.
Fallon chose to return to her hometown of Duxbury, Massachusetts, to tie the knot. An ocean-side estate across the street from Fallon’s childhood home was the perfect setting to celebrate the couple’s love of the outdoors amidst their favorite colors of green and blue

Photography by Studio Nouveau

This 150-200-person guest list offers the opportunity for lots of detail on a larger scale. Although a public garden like Prescott Park is not a costly venue for wedding photos, the glorious backdrop is critical for the photo session for a wedding of this budget range. The gown, already magnificent and in the $4,000 range, is even more stunning amidst this carpet of flowers in full bloom.
