Cape Cod Waterfront Wychmere Wedding | Lauren & Nolan

Updated: Sep 17


Cape Cod Waterfront Wedding at the Wychmere Beach Club

Lauren and Nolan’s Cape Cod waterfront wedding at the Wychmere Beach Club was the perfect summer wedding! They met in high school in Delaware and attended college together in Boston. The Cape is special to them; Nolan spent his summers vacationing near Chatham, and they got engaged there last summer. It was only fitting to tie the knot in such a meaningful place!


They enjoy hiking, fishing, and hunting with their dog. They now live in Alaska, where they are stationed while Lauren finishes medical school. The father of one of my past couples, Hannah and Michael, referred me to Nolan’s mom, and I was thrilled to capture their wedding day! Referrals mean the absolute world to me, and it means a little something extra when even the father of a couple supports me!!



Intimate Cape Cod Wedding


The Wychmere Beach Club is one of my favorite Cape Cod wedding venues. It sits right on the beach and is a quintessential cape with hydrangeas everywhere, beautiful large windows for white and bright reception space, and boats moored in the marina next door. Wychmere was the perfect venue for their out-of-state guests who could stay and enjoy the Cape Cod beach since it has everything guests need to stay on the property. 


Lauren and Nolan got ready with their respective wedding parties and enjoyed the morning together. Once everyone was ready, we headed to the boardwalk for their first look. Nolan was emotional seeing his beautiful bride for the first time. We took portraits of the two of them before meeting up with their wedding party for photos around the property and on the beach.

Beach Wedding Ceremony on Cape Cod


The ceremony on the beach was incredible! It was my first time photographing a sand ceremony at Wychmere, and it was so beautiful. With the dunes and ocean as the backdrop, it was the perfect way to get married. Their beach ceremony was intimate with just around 50 guests. The day was laid back, yet luxurious! Lauren chose natural-looking flowers for the aisle, and they enhanced the whole vibe.


There were tears shed by everyone as Nolan and Lauren read their personal vows in front of all their guests. Nowadays many couples opt for private vows, but it is such a testament to their love to read them in front of everyone! After the ceremony, we explored the beach to capture some portraits on the beach before hopping in a golf cart to head to their reception in the Ocean Room.



Cape Cod Waterfront Wedding at the Ocean Room


Lauren and Nolan chose the Ocean Room for their reception space. This space has a rooftop deck overlooking Wychmere Harbor so guests can be indoors or outdoors enjoying the views!


Their floral team was friggin amazing - the reception space was so beautiful!! They even include some more "natural" flowers that guests are allowed to take home at the end and plant in their garden! I currently have daisies from their wedding in my mailbox planter. So cool for the couple to have their wedding flowers grow the next year on their property. 


They were introduced to their reception with a confetti pop into the first dance. So fun! We of course had to head back to the beach boardwalk for sunset photos. The blue hour lighting was just perfect & these were some of my favorites of the day! We got the dance party started with a champagne tower and headed out to the dance floor. I am so happy for them and I am so thrilled to have captured their day!
