Sarah + Mike — Lyman Estate Wedding Details – xo, CoCo

Lovely Summer Wedding at the Lyman Estate

Take a look at Sarah and Mike’s beautifully intimate and personal details! So much of their personality shined through during their wedding day at the Lyman Estate, right down to the programs, how cute are those?! I loved every moment of their wedding, I hope you enjoy a few more of my favorite moments and details! Let’s start with the most important part, the shoes.

I can’t speak to how comfortable these were… pain is beauty, and aren’t they such a great color?!

Sarah’s beautiful one-shoulder dress is from The Bridal Garden in Manhattan, a not-for-profit bridal boutique that donates their proceeds to help educate disadvantaged children, now that’s a business model we can get behind!

The rooms at the Lyman have some fab wall paper and woodwork, I could shoot there every day! Allana, my second shooter for the day, grabbed this as mike got ready.

Lovely Summer Wedding at the Lyman Estate

You may remember Sarah and Mike from one of my favorite engagement sessions EVER. I think the thing I love most about these two is not only are they adorable, fun, perfectly nerdy, and just the right amount of silly, they completely trusted me. They have the type of cool confidence in themselves and in me that makes my job so easy. Also, their wedding was Ah-Mazing! Intimate, beautiful, personal, and FUN… ALL of my favorite things. Alright, enough gushing, let’s start with Sarah in her room at the stately and stunning Lyman Estate, one of my favorite places to shoot, and wait til you see the outdoor dance floor!

Sarah’s girls were cracking me up.

I shot a few snap shots with my Canonet QL17 35mm film camera, using Fuji 400H film throughout the day. Its such a fun little camera, and film brings a whole other quality to their pictures, can you tell the difference?
