Cassandra and Alex were married on a sunny/rainy/sunny/rainy/sunny summer day at Zukas Hilltop Barn in Spencer, MA.

Despite the constant weather fluctuations and having to move the ceremony indoors at the last minute, Cassandra and Alex stayed positive the whole day. They went with the flow and had a blast dancing the night away at the reception.
