Real Wedding
Floriana · Ipswich, Massachusetts · August 30, 2025
A late-summer garden wedding on Boston's North Shore — a first look, an outdoor ceremony beneath an old tree down a hydrangea-lined aisle, and a candlelit reception in soft neutrals and butter yellow that danced under string lights.
On Saturday, August 30, 2025, Meghan and Pat were married at Floriana in Ipswich, Massachusetts — a garden venue on Boston's North Shore. Meghan got ready at the Essex Street Inn in Newburyport before a first look, and the day leaned soft and classic: neutrals, whites and creams and greens, with the bridesmaids in butter yellow. The ceremony unfolded outdoors beneath a sprawling old tree, down an aisle lined with hydrangeas.
About 115 guests gathered for golden-hour portraits in the gardens, a candlelit dinner, and heartfelt toasts, then filled the dance floor well into the night. Captured on both film and digital, Meghan and Pat's wedding closed with a glowing send-off under string lights — an easy, joyful North Shore celebration.
