On May 29th, the coast of Newport didn’t bring sunshine, it brought something better. A sky wrapped in soft grey, a mist rolling in from the Atlantic, and a love story that proved light isn’t always about the weather.

Jeremina and Tommy leaned into the day exactly as it was. They exchanged vows outdoors, under a moody sky, creating a ceremony that felt powerful, intimate, and entirely theirs.

Their story began years before, as high school opposites, she, the teacher’s pet, and he, the troublemaker. Long distance tested them more than once, but their love was never about convenience. It was about choice, resilience, and unwavering commitment.

That same heart showed up in every detail of their wedding day. From an emotional dance between Jeremina and her brother, to an unforgettable moment she placed her bouquet in her mother’s hands, the wedding was filled with love in all its forms.

✨ Every detail and emotion beautifully captured by Viva Porti Photography, a talented Newport wedding photographer. And a proud member of our Engaged Life Vendor Community.
