Lindsay + Nathan | InterContinental Boston Wedding | Michele Mottola

Taking a page from the infamous Boston InterContinental Hotel “White Wedding” that Brian Phillips Photography shot late season 2010, with event planner and designer Michele Mottola…  Our couple chose to go a similar, but at the same time, completely opposite look for their extraordinary Boston wedding. Michele meticulously helped transform the Rose Kennedy Ballroom into a dimly lit, dark and truly romantic affair.  A recarpeted ballroom and custom dance floor were only side notes compared to the Uplit floor to ceiling strands of crystals that hung spectacularly behind shear black draping around the room, specifically behind the band and the bar.  And also of note, the unbelievable and intricate hand made paper flower wall (designed by Lux Event Rentals / Inspired by a Chanel Couture show) that graced the brides entrance into her ceremony.  Over 18 vendors were involved with this wedding, and I must not forget to mention specifically Marc Hall for his extravagant floral design and Suzanne B. Lowell and her “spot on” lighting work.  Really Amazing.  I know, such an overused word, but truly.. it says it all.

Also a big hand goes out to my wife Maria / photo-assistant extraordinaire for this wedding as she is 9 months pregnant and still insisted on helping out! I have taken a lot of heat for this, but really, it was all her.  But Michele did save the day with a golf cart on call for her disposal, or so I am told lol.  And to my second lead shooter Roxanna Perdue, who I am so excited just recently moved back to Boston.  Roxanna’s wonderful imagery (many scattered throughout below), really lent a hand to rounding out this event with exacting coverage by the Brian Phillips Photography Team!!!  Shameless plug, but of course!  ENJOY!!!
