Merrimack Valley Golf Course Methuen MA Wedding Photos by Alyssa Parker Photography

Katie & Eric were married on Saturday, July 20th, at Trinity Lutheran Church in Chelmsford, MA. The ceremony was so unique and something I have never seen before. The Pastor gave Katie and Eric cleaning supplies and household items that went along with the message of how to have a successful marriage. She wanted them to remember the message and the vows they made to one another when they see these items around their home or at the store. Such a clever idea and made the ceremony so fun!

The reception at Merrimack Valley Golf Club was stunning!! The view of the golf course with the mountains in the back was so gorgeous! That is actually what Eric and Katie fell in love with when choosing this venue. The blue and grey wedding party attire was the perfect color to pop out against this background – it looked SO amazing, as you’ll see. I have never seen a wedding gown like Katie’s. The lace top with a peek-a-boo back and tulle skirt. And her cathedral veil!! SO STUNNING! I think most photographers get excited when we see a veil like Katie’s. Inside the reception hall was beautiful cathedral ceilings and large windows letting in lots of light! My favorite! The tables were decorated with gorgeous blue, peach and white flowers for the centerpieces and cute little boxes the read “let love glow” which had light up ice cubes in them. Such a fun and cute idea! I was very impressed with how the invitation suite, the signs, favor boxes, and everything matched with the same beautiful blue water color design! One of my favorite personal touches was their cake topper; a house with balloons and it said “you’re my greatest adventure” “Up” is one of my favorite movies of all time, so I loved this cake topper so much!! And Eric and Katie are a lot like Ellie and Carl. They are sweet, soft spoken, easy going, and love an adventure! AND Katie LOVES to scrapbook!

Cheers to Mr. & Mrs. Grudzinski here is to your greatest adventure yet!
