A Cozy Stevens Estate Wedding in Andover, MA
Emmie and Anthony’s Stevens Estate wedding was so incredibly gorgeous. It was a cloudy November day filled with cozy vibes throughout. I am so excited to share more from their wedding day in Andover, MA!
The Story of Emmie and Anthony
In 2013, during Emmie’s internship in Salem, MA, she met Anthony in an informal setting. Anthony was somewhat known to Emmie through her cousin, who she shared a close bond with. They have differing recollections of their first meeting. Emmie remembers it occurring at a Bruins watch party, while Anthony insists it was at a college graduation celebration a few days later. Despite the variance, they both lean towards Emmie’s memory being accurate.
Emmie decided to permanently relocate to Massachusetts in 2015 after finishing her studies in Kansas. Throughout the years, Anthony and Emmie maintained their friendship, and in October 2017, they transitioned into an official relationship!! Emmie was unaware that Anthony had feelings for her for some time. It was Emmie who initiated their relationship that fall, as Anthony was hesitant to make the first move. Reflecting on this, Emmie appreciates taking that step, considering the uncertainty of how long it would have taken Anthony to gather the courage. Setting aside humor, Emmie is incredibly grateful for her decision, as it has brought them both much happiness.

What I loved most about this venue was the eclectic vibe throughout with the combination of the fun patterns, sophisticated and chic bathtub. These bridal portraits look like they are from a magazine!
