So I first met Greg at his brother Jerry’s wedding. (I love that we recreated an image from his wedding day!) I didn’t know it at the time but Greg and Jacqueline had really just started dating and soon after jetted off to Hawaii for a month as soon as they met! What can I say – when you know, you know.

When I first met Jacqueline it was when they got engaged and obviously I was ELATED. Like, I’ve just been waiting my whole life for Greg to hurry up and marry you. And she is just the sweetest! They will make the cutest babies ;)

Jacqueline and Greg’s wedding at The Lake House Inn was just gorgeous during the winter with florals from Petals Lane. We had a great team of people from Jeffrey Miller Catering. I absolutely adore our DJ’s Anthony and Vince from East Coast Event Group.

For real, this was the BEST. DAY. EVER. Jacqueline and Greg, I can’t thank you enough for asking me to celebrate with you and your families and I wish you all the best! Congrats you guys!!

I LOVED Emma’s dusty blue shoes and her bridesmaids soft pink and plum dresses. And the super cute lantern escort table made everything just glow. I’m at Avalon Yacht Club quite a bit and it’s always a wonderful experience. Perfect sunset every time!

Dave and Emma, I hope you guys stay weird together forever.

The day was hot and the rain started to creep in right as they began their ceremony! Not a problem, it held off until their first dance when Alex grabbed his new wife and spun her out onto the open dance floor and danced in the rain!! It was perfect! Eventually the sun came out again and we ran through the field taking photos of the late summer sun drinking moonshine. It was the perfect summer wedding ;)

Mallory’s bridal bouquet and all of the florals by Kerry Patel Designs were just so breathtaking! Her planner Mallory of Mallory Weiss Planning made the day run so smoothly. 

I always love to talk to the father of the bride on a wedding day while the bride is getting ready. I had a few moments to steal away with Mallory’s dad and he told me she is one of four girls and was the last wedding they would be planning. He was so proud to see her walk down the stairs and see her in her wedding gown. 

The ceremony was held at the little Church in Brielle, just down the road from Manasquan River Golf Club where their reception was held. 

The bridal party was stunning in their navy suits and maroon dresses. Along with the soft little touches of their bouquets and boutenniere’s. Perfection! We had the best time photographing Mallory and Michael despite Michael’s nerves about being in front of my camera ;) 

Mallory danced her way into her reception wearing her Texas pride and of course, they repped Villanova! 

What a spectacular day! 

A special thank you to all of the people who made this day perfect!

Adam and I’s good friend Mike, (also one of our groomsmen at our own wedding), told me his sister was getting married so of course I had to meet her and her fiancé Brian! The family all lives in Bradenton, Florida where Bethany is the Events Manager at the family owned O’Brick’s Irish Pub + Martini Bar. 

Adam and I were fortunate enough to be a part of the rehearsal dinner and guests at the wedding too! Little did we know it would be a cool 85 degrees in November, but it’s better than the snow we came back to in Philly! 

Bethany + Brian’s wedding was held at the beautiful little Palmetto Riverside Bed and Breakfast. Right on the water front, underneath a spanish moss covered live oak tree. Their good family friend, Florida State Representative nominee, Will Robinson was their officiant! 

After a beautiful ceremony, we were ready to DANCE! For someone who doesn’t enjoy being in front of the camera (I feel you), Bethany surprised us all by singing Franki Valli’s “Can’t take my eyes off of you” to Brian AND surprised him with a late night snack from everyone’s favorite, Chik-fil-A! All in all, I’d say we pretty much nailed this destination wedding. I can’t wait to come visit again very soon ;)

Naomi and Pat found me because of my other fabulous friends who were married earlier this year. You may remember these babes Lauren + Ben from their wedding at La Peg!

Naomi and Pat had a FaceTime meeting with me while they were in Peru? Maybe Belize? I can’t remember but I knew I had found my people. Naomi and Pat traveled the world this past year while planning their wedding using a lot of points and miles. I attempt to do the same but on a much smaller scale (babies and all). Living this amazing dream and hitting so many of my own bucket list items, it was hard not to get lost in their Instagram posts! (One day, I will make it to Angkor Wat, mark my words!)

Their wedding day started with some champagne (and ended with it too). Syd, you are the brother I never had. I’m keeping you. Zach was with me of course and started his day with some basil hayden, some of my favorite whisky. We were off to a good start.

Naomi and Pat actually had two ceremonies on their wedding day. We started at a church in Manayunk then to Artesano Gallery after running all over the towpath having the best time photographing them and their bridal posse. SO WINDY but man are they pretty!

These two understand each other. They love fiercely. That Nay Cray, you are a force girlfriend. And Pat, I know you love her like no one else can. You two can do anything. Home is wherever you are together <3

These two have known each other since high school and have been in love ever since. How rare it is to find your perfect match at such a young age, weather the storms we all do through college, through jobs, through loss and heartache. Christina and Julian have powered through some incredible obstacles and have built such a strong foundation in each other, they can only be a success together.

I’ve mentioned before how my favorite part of the day is when my couples see each other for the first time, and this couple did NOT disappoint! Gahhhhhhhh, the way Julian looks at Christina – makes me wanna get married all over again. He was SOOO excited to see her and to just marry her already! I literally could not take a bad photo of these two. I maaaaaay have had to talk myself down from the high of photographing them haha – I mean, LOOK AT THEM!

I love when my other couples are guests at my current couples weddings too! This time I had a few there and one is expecting their first baby any day :D Can’t wait to meet Baby H! And Sara, girl, I know you caught that bouquet – call me ;) haha!

Their ceremony at Manor House at Prophecy Creek was officiated by Christina’s late father’s best friend. Since her father passed away from Leukemia, I can think of no better person to officiate his daughter’s wedding! Tears and laughter and all the love your heart could hold. What a beautiful, beautiful day!

Steph and Shane are two very dear people to me. Steph works with both my husband and our family as she’s our go to babysitter – (STEPH DON’T EVER LEAVE US) hahaha! Shane got lucky and snagged this woman for life when he proposed on this same beach over their family vacation.

Even though we’ve got to wait two years until their wedding day, I can’t wait to celebrate with them along the way as they start this amazing journey together. <3

Their wedding day was a total blast from beginning to end! I have the best time hanging out with friends and family from weddings we’ve been at together in the past. Dana left us speechless in that gorgeous lace gown and Ali is just the sweetest man. My girl Tanti at Papertini was killin’ it with those peonies and summer blooms on their chuppah, tables and the girls bouquets! Tanti did our florals for our wedding so you know she’s the best and I’ll tell everyone ;) We spent the day hitting up all the beautiful philly spots and eating some Mister Softee before heading to Ridgeland Mansion. Their ceremony was short and sweet, officiated by one of my other fabulous brides from last year ;) It was just perfect. That night we partied so hard with Prince Ali and hot Dana and all of our friends!

Ali loves Dana so so much. I can’t wait for them to make beautiful little caramel babies so I can buy them ALL the hippo baby supplies <3
