Quinn and Nate Emmons
Quinn Clarkson Snellings, daughter of Courtenay and Bill Snellings of Ridgefield, was married to Nathaniel Hughes Emmons of Dedham, Mass. on June 30, 2012 at his parents’ summer home in Biddeford Pool, Maine. The groom’s uncle, the Rev. Lee Barstow, performed the double-ring ceremony.
The bride wore an ivory gown with a lace overlay and a chapel-length train. Her Belgian lace veil had first been worn by her great-grandmother, Courtenay Clarkson Arps, and later by her mother. She carried a bouquet composed of blue and white hydrangeas and white roses.
The bride’s two sisters, Courtenay Lorien Snellings and Brittany Barry Snellings, were “best women,” and the bridesmaids were Jessica Whitten, sister-in-law of the bride, Jeannie Marmol, Danna Klein, Blair Kershaw, Lisa Summergrad, and Molly Emmons, sister of the groom. The bridesmaids wore Capri blue dresses and carried white hydrangeas. Arianna Lee, daughter of Jeannie Marmol, was the flower girl.
Andrew and Jay Emmons, brother and father of the groom, respectively, were “best men,” and ushers were Paxton Ramsdell, Kenji Taberi, Taylor Barstow, and Adrian Mott.
Ms. Emmons graduated from Ridgefield High School in 2003, and both the bride and groom graduated from Hamilton College in 2007.
Mr. Emmons is studying for his master’s in law and diplomacy at the Fletcher School at Tufts University, and Ms. Emmons works at Northeastern University, where she is studying for her master of science degree in college student development and counseling.
The couple honeymooned in Mozambique and live in Somerville, Mass.
