Belle Mer Waterfront First Look

When it came to planning their early-fall nuptials in Newport, Rhode Island, creating a day that reflected their personalities and relationship was nonnegotiable for Cal and Bobby. The pair filled the day with surprises (like a hiring an improv comedian to crash their ceremony) and sentimental touches (like having each guest write a birthday card for Dorot, an organization close to the couple’s heart) for a celebration that was fun-loving and authentic. “Make it your own," the couple says. "Don’t let it become cookie-cutter. Shake it up. Have fun.”
