Maura and Basha's Wedding Celebration!

Maura and Basha had their official NYC wedding celebration last Saturday, July 18th, at the Seamen’s Church Institute by South Street Seaport. Having been officially married in a private ceremony on Nantucket a little while ago this was their opportunity to renew their vows publicly in front of gathered friends and family. I was so pleased to be a part of their big day– it was truly moving and wonderful to be there, we got some really sweet shots of these two before the ceremony around in the surrounding blocks. My favorite moment was when a couple of passersby started cheering and hollering ‘you go girl’ as I was posing them for a sweet portrait with them kissing in the street… it was a beautiful reaction. The next best moment was after all the great toasting the friends presented a honeymoon vacation package they had put together and paid for… this was a day full of happy tears. If you saw their engagement portraits in my earlier post, you know these two women are absolutely adorably in love… Congratulations, Maura and Basha! 01_Maura&Basha_SeamensChurchInstitute_SarahTewPhotography
