Pine Orchard Yacht & Country Club Wedding in Branford, CT | Aliza & Joe

A PINE ORCHARD YACHT & COUNTRY CLUB WEDDING

Aliza and Joe’s Pine Orchard Yacht & Country Club wedding combined so many beautiful elements that make up some of my favorite wedding days. It was the epitome of a June wedding celebration! From an elegant and tropical wedding design to two close-knit families becoming one, and of course, a couple that is sweet as can be, this day was certainly one for the books.

Joe and Aliza each got ready at their childhood homes alongside their closest family members and friends. When they were dressed and ready for the day, everyone made their way to the church where the soon-to-be Mr. and Mrs. would become husband and wife. After exchanging vows and sharing their first kiss, Aliza and Joe walked back up the aisle together, hand in hand, as smiles beamed across their faces.

After the ceremony, we made our way to Pine Orchard Yacht Club for everyone’s portraits along the water. Aliza stunned in an elegant yet contemporary gown featuring delicate lace details and a flowing train. Joe looked equally dapper in a classic gray tuxedo. Their timeless and elegant style perfectly matched the classic vibe of their coastal New England wedding.

Pine Orchard Yacht & Country Club is nestled along the shores of Branford, a picturesque coastal Connecticut town. It provided an idyllic backdrop for Aliza and Joe’s portraits and exquisite wedding celebration. The breathtaking waterfront views and lush greenery surrounding the venue added to the overall ambiance of the day. The club's timeless charm and elegant architecture perfectly complemented the classic elements of the wedding, creating a seamless fusion of styles.

Joe and Aliza's choice of a sage green and gold color palette perfectly blended their classic wedding style with a touch of tropical flair. Sage green, with its subtle earthy tones, evoked a sense of tranquility and natural beauty. The gold accents added a touch of luxury and sophistication, creating a captivating contrast. This harmonious combination played a pivotal role in setting the mood for the entire wedding day.

The newlyweds were celebrated by their loved ones that evening with heartfelt toasts and hours of dancing late into the night. The lively dancefloor was filled with laughter and joy, infusing each and every moment with love and happiness for Joe and Aliza!

THE LOVE STORY

Aliza and Joe met in the summer of 2016 at Misquamicut State Beach in Westerly, Rhode Island through mutual friends. After that day at the beach, the pair spent nearly every weekend together, getting to know each other and slowly becoming best friends. As the fall and winter months passed Joe and Aliza quickly fell in love. Through college graduations, getting their first jobs, and moving in with one another, they’ve been together through it all. While they were vacationing in Aruba in September of 2021, Joe proposed to Aliza on the beach during a candlelit dinner under the stars. After seven years together, these two are finally married!

Congratulations Aliza and Joe! Wishing you much love and joy in the years to come!
