A Summer Wedding at The Great House

E & K had a beautiful day for their mid-summer wedding.  Unobscured views of the Atlantic Ocean, strolls throughout our formal gardens, and precious moments in the Great House and under the sailcloth tent.

Take a photo walk below with images captured by Paul Robert Berman.

The Great House at The Crane Estate, Erin & Alex

The Crane Estate is abound with beautiful vignettes for wedding photos you won’t forget.  Perched along the Atlantic Ocean, you’ll swoon over the views during a ceremony on the Grand Allée, and marvel at the beauty of the historic mansion that is The Great House.  A permanent tent sits alongside The Great House, boasting sparkling chandeliers, offering a magical setting to enjoy dinner and dancing.

Erin and Alex’s wedding took place in the fall on an overcast day, but that didn’t affect how brightly this couple shined.
