Adventure Elopement in Maudslay State Park, Newburyport, Massachusetts

August 1, 2022

Maudslay State Park in Newburyport was an epic location for Summer and JJ's adventure elopement! With tall golden grasses, and lush forest, jaw dropping bridge (best captured by drone) and beautiful lake to jump into, we feel we had a well rounded elopement session. We strolled through the grass, walked the gorgeous bridge, explored the enchanted forest and then cooled down in the lake which was my favorite part. Mainly because I got into the water as well which feels more like play than work! ...
