Christa and Dean‘s Wedding at Tyde at Walnut Beach in Milford, CT

Christa and Dean‘s Wedding at Tyde at Walnut Beach in Milford, CT couldn’t have gone more smoothly. They’re a gorgeous couple—inside and out—and their energy made the whole day feel easy and fun. The timeline flowed perfectly with zero stress and lots of time to enjoy every moment.

We started the day at Hotel Mercie for getting ready photos—such a beautiful space to kick things off. The ceremony ran on time, so we got all the family photos without feeling rushed. We even found a little park across the street and ended up getting some absolutely gorgeous shots of the wedding party and Christa & Dean. That extra time made all the difference.

When we arrived at Tyde, everyone had a few minutes to freshen up and unwind—and we still had time to take stunning photos around the venue before cocktail hour even began. We also got to work with our favorite DJ and videographer, which made the day even better.

Pro tip: A smooth wedding day really comes down to great planning and having the right team. Build in buffer time and book vendors you trust. When your vendors work well together, everything just flows—and you actually get to enjoy your day.

Huge congrats to Christa & Dean—what an amazing day for an amazing couple!
