On the first really hot summer day of 2009, Rachel and Jimmy were married at the gorgeous Bar Harbor Club in Bar Harbor, Maine. It was an emotional ceremony and a foot-loose/fancy reception for a couple with a lot of love and charm.
Jimmy and Rachel have been together for over 7 years so their event was super elegant but super relaxed! A great day and wedding for both families. I loved every moment of the day with this down-to-earth, warm couple.
The best moment of their wedding- for me- was actually during Jimmy’s best man’s his speech. Jimmy is a professional NHL player… that is…. part of the Stanley Cup-winning Detroit Red Wings. Despite that great moment in Jimmy’s life, his best man rejoiced, “marrying Rachel was —by far — his greatest achievement.”
Well said! Rachel and Jimmy, what a great day! My love and luck to you for a happy, sweet life together!
