You may remember Laura and Sean from their fun engagement session. They were married at St. Benedict the Abbot church in McMurray and had their reception at the DoubleTree Inn Meadowlands. They are the sweetest couple and were so excited to marry each other, and you can see that in every one of their photos. I was so lucky to have the perfect combination of a gorgeous couple, a beautiful day, a really fun bridal party, and plenty of time. I had an absolute blast and I’m so excited to share their wedding day with you. Here are just a few of my favorites…
Laura and the girls did a great job picking out their dresses. The splash of coral really brightened up the photos…
What a stunning bride…
Props to the bridal party for being so fun and willing to put up with the bright sun and heat.
Afternoon light really adds that “special something” to photos. I suppose having a good-looking couple doesn’t hurt either :)
I was pleasantly surprised at how many great little location gems there were at the church, and took full advantage of their courtyard…
Beautiful bride, and beautiful flowers provided by The White Orchid.
Look at that cake!
I absolutely love when there are unique and fun little details. In addition to a guestbook, Laura and Sean had their guests put their fingerprints on a hand-drawn poster of a tree and sign their names. What a cool idea!
A few more of my favorite details…
The bridal party came prepared with enough “Groucho Marx” disguise glasses for the whole party, and surprised the bride & groom with them as soon as they were introduced. Laura and Sean didn’t mind at all and joined right in. I think this look really works for them :)
You could totally tell how into each other these two are during their first dance…
The awesome Eric Schiemer absolutely rocked this wedding and kept the whole crowd dancing and having a great time the whole night.
Sneaking the bride and groom out for a few last portraits is one of my favorite parts of the day. I love hearing from them how perfect their day has been and how much fun they’re having, and love being able to capture a few last moments of just them. Plus I get to play with crazy lighting which is also fun :)
I had an incredible time at your wedding and I’m jealous that you’re beaching it up in Jamaica! Enjoy your honeymoon, but hurry home so I can show you the rest of the photos :)
