THE WEDDING OF CHARLOTTE & COLIN

September 9, 2017

Prouts Neck, Maine

When they met at a mutual friend’s birthday party in Washington, D.C., where they were both living, Colin Morrison and Charlotte Lamontagne took a series of pictures together in a photo booth. They kept those pictures, and four years later (almost to the day), they took a new snapshot together—only this time, as husband and wife in their wedding-day photo booth.

The two had their first date a week after meeting, and it lasted for six hours, Charlotte recalls. “I thought he was really cute and such a nice guy,” she says. “And he was such a great listener.” Colin says he loved her smile and how she “laughs at everything… and is a genuinely nice person.”

Having spent summers in Scarborough, Maine, Charlotte says that getting married there was important to her; Colin, who has visited the area with her every summer since they met, agreed.

They said their wedding planner, Beautiful Days, helped make everything run smoothly, and the “woodsy elements” and fairy lights inside a clear-top tent at the Prouts Neck Country Club created a wonderful atmosphere that was decidedly them.

The couple said food—including a sundae bar, a late-night poutine truck and a croquembouche cake—was also a major consideration at the wedding. “We made sure to incorporate food that reflected the different parts of our lives to make the wedding feel more us.”
