A Dreamy Coastal Wedding at Misselwood Events in Beverly, MA

There’s just something about an East Coast summer wedding that feels like pure magic, and KJ & Sarah’s wedding at Misselwood Events in Beverly, MA was exactly that! Think sweeping ocean views, blue coastal tones woven throughout the details, and a love story that’s been years in the making (they’ve been together since high school!). From Sarah slipping into her mom’s robe while getting ready, to both of her parents walking her down the aisle, to a last private dance under twinkle lights, every single moment was filled with intentionality and emotion!

Getting Ready at Misselwood Events

The morning started with pure joy and anticipation as Sarah and her bridesmaids gathered in their navy pajama sets, filling the room with laughter, inside jokes, and plenty of bubbly. There was this easy calm mixed with excited energy, and the sentimental detail of Sarah wearing her mom’s robe while getting ready added such a tender layer to the day. Across town, KJ got ready in a more quiet and collected setting, slipping into a classic black tux and carefully tying his shoes. The simplicity of these moments captured who they are perfectly, grounded, sweet, and ready to step into forever together.

First Look by the Ivy-Covered Mansion

One of the most unforgettable parts of their wedding at Misselwood Events was the first look outside the ivy-covered mansion. The historic brick backdrop covered in lush green felt straight out of a romantic editorial, but the emotions made it even better. As Sarah walked toward KJ in her timeless gown, she couldn’t hold back her smile, and when he turned around, his reaction was filled with pure love and awe. They shared a mix of laughter and tears, holding onto each other like they’d been waiting for this exact moment all along. It set such a heartfelt tone for the rest of the day!

Portraits with a Coastal View

When you’re at Misselwood, the ocean practically begs to be part of the photos, and Sarah and KJ fully embraced it. We wandered out toward the cliffs and open lawn where the water stretched endlessly behind them, dotted with sailboats drifting in the distance. The natural beauty of the East Coast shoreline gave every photo a cinematic quality, while their personalities kept it light, playful, and fun. Whether they were sharing quiet conversations or laughing so hard they couldn’t stop, these portraits showed the full spectrum of who they are together, effortless, classic, and full of joy! we also got to capture some beautiful portraits with their bridal parties!

Ceremony Overlooking the Ocean

The ceremony space at Misselwood is nothing short of breathtaking, and theirs was no exception. Guests faced the ocean as rows of white chairs framed an aisle lined with lush blue and white florals, tying into the coastal theme so beautifully. Sarah walked down the aisle with both of her parents, a detail that felt deeply personal and moving, bringing many to tears. The breeze carried softly off the water as KJ and Sarah exchanged vows filled with sweet promises and quiet laughter. Looking around at the love and support surrounding them, you could feel how meaningful it was to be in that place, at that moment, overlooking the ocean.

Reception Under the Tent

As the sun began to set, the reception tent at Misselwood lit up like a dream. Draped in flowing white fabric, chandeliers twinkling overhead, and candles glowing from every table, the space was coastal elegance at its finest. Guests gathered around round tables adorned with hydrangeas, roses, and subtle blue accents, keeping that timeless East Coast vibe alive. KJ and Sarah’s first dance on the black-and-white checkered floor was magical, drawing cheers from all around, and the celebration only grew more electric as the night went on. Later, Sarah swapped her gown for a sparkly mini dress, which made for the ultimate dance floor look and kept the energy going all night long! After hours of laughter, dancing, and so many hugs from loved ones, KJ and Sarah ended the night in the sweetest way possible, with a private last dance. 

Sweet words from the couple

“Cassidy! These are INCREDIBLE! Thank you so much. You truly captured the essence of our day and we could not be more grateful. We knew we wanted you as our photographer for many reasons and I really feel like we won the lottery – you went above and beyond to make sure things were running smoothly and it didn’t go unnoticed!
