RACHEL BUCKLEY WEDDINGS & LAUREN DOBISH PHOTOGRAPHY

As a wedding planner and designer and lover of four-legged friends, Jessica Hennessey of Jessica Hennessey Weddings set out to create a multifaceted photoshoot featuring a bespoke holiday-themed design and the cutest of models—puppies from two local dog rescues in search of their forever homes. What better timing than the holidays?

The Christmas Tree Farm in Pembroke set the scene for a day filled with the delicious smell of pine trees, intricate wedding details and puppy kisses from the dogs at Survivor Tails Animal Rescue (STAR) and Brown Dog Coalition & Rescue. Capturing the day was Rachel Buckley Weddings and Lauren Dobish Photography—as Danielle from For The Love Of Paws got the adoptable dogs camera-ready for their big debut! Behind the scenes, Beach Plum Floral & Event Design created the most beautiful bridal bouquet, floral hoops and collars, as well as a gracefully detailed floral runner across a Coast & Country Rentals farm table to complete a striking holiday tablescape. A cake by Delicious Desserts featuring a cable-knit design rounded out the details of this gorgeous day.

The nine puppies and three dogs featured are all looking for their permanent families. If you are interested in becoming their forever home, please contact Survivor Tails Animal Rescue (survivortails.org) and Brown Dog Coalition & Rescue (browndogcoalition.com) for more information.
