Let’s get right into it! As a Massachusetts based wedding photographer, Jessie Marilyn Photography, has had the chance to explore countless incredible venues throughout Massachusetts and Rhode Island. The list I’ve put together for you highlights spaces that perfectly match the whimsical, greenery-filled, romantic weddings I LOVE to capture. To start, let me share a wedding hosted at the beautiful Roger Williams Botanical Garden Park in Providence, Rhode Island.

Just to preface, this wedding day started with some crazy rain and nervous jitters, and ended with a rainbow and an epic dance party (spoiler: the bride and her father broke out matching glitter vests during their dance!)

One of the best things about having your romantic wedding at Roger Williams Botanical Garden Park in Providence, Rhode Island is that rain or shine, you have a spot that will have STUNNING photos. Naomi and Mitch were happy to have that option on the rainy start of their wedding day. The grounds have so many options for photos, multiple sections of greenhouse spaces with countless options for areas to compose a lovely image. They also have an outside rose garden that we used for bridal party photos.

New England Botanical Garden at Tower Hill in Boylston, Massachusetts

The space is truly stunning. They have outdoor gardens, and large fields- for those of us who love running around free like we’re in a period piece (yes, I’m speaking from experience).  They also have a secret garden area, which is the home of a beautiful staircase perfect for ceremony, or bridal party/ family formals. The indoor space is just as magical. With multiple indoor greenhouse rooms, you can see the charm and beauty in each photo.
