KJAD ventured north to Upstate New York for Zoe and Brandon’s big day; Bonnie Castle Resort and Marina in Alexandria Bay, to be exact. The venue is located in the Thousand Islands Region right on the shore of the St. Lawrence River where we got to shoot some of the sweetest photos of the newlyweds. We all lucked out with a beautiful sunset (no rain, yay!), and ended their classic wedding day with a sparkler send off. We hope you enjoy this peek into their celebration!!

We had such a blast celebrating with Lindsey and Jeremiah on their warm, sweet, late summer’s wedding day. We even got to gallivant near our neck of the woods to snap some fun shots at Wilkes-Barre’s Riverfront before heading over to The Woodlands for celebratory dancing. We wish them all the happiness in the world, and we hope you enjoy a look into their big day!

Love, adoration, respect, and confidence are a few words that only just begin to describe the bond between Allie and Anthony. When these high school sweethearts discovered that they were each other’s person they formed a bong so strong that it could never be broken, a bond so strong that it will last lifetimes, and is supported beyond whole-heartedly by all of their friends and family. The happy couple have so much love and respect for all of their loved ones that they asked each and every guest to share a hopeful wish during their ceremony. Allie and Anthony, with the help of their wedding party, hung their wedding rings on a white twine that each guest held in their hands. While the couple were reciting their vows, they asked everyone to pass the rings to each other along the twine whilst sharing sweet, quiet well wishes. After the rings completed their journey, the couple sealed the deal with a kiss, and were showered with that celebratory rice. Everyone, including the cutest fuzzy ring bearer, danced well into the evening; and we mean danced, trumpets and all. What an amazing venue, what an amazing love story, what an amazing wedding day!! These memories and the well wishes riding upon their rings will always accompany Allie and Anthony as they continue their love story as Mr. and Mrs. Fanucci.

(Yes, that is an airhorn going off in your head. If wedding’s had theme noises, that would be Jackie and Dave’s.)
The KJAD Crew came in hot for Jackie and Dave’s wedding; 2 photographers, 2 coordinators, 1 intern, and all of our sweat. It was beyond muggy, but luckily the rain cleared up and held off for most of the day. We love coordinating and planning weddings so much, not only because it gives us an opportunity to really get to know amazing people like Jackie and Dave, but it allows us to help make wedding day dreams come true. The couple celebrated their love at one of our favorite venues, The Barn at Glistening Pond. They also chose the world’s best ring bearer ever. He ran faster than The Flash, showed the most support anyone has ever seen at a wedding via thumbs-ups and fist bumps, and most importantly kept the rings safer than safe.. even after they tried to run away on him. We got to hang out with some other cool people that day, too. Dan from Park Multimedia captured the day on video, Robb Brown provided beautiful ceremony and cocktail hour music, DJ Kenton of MCR Productions kept everyone dancing during the reception, and it’s always a pleasure to work with the Constantino’s Crew. Jackie and Dave had a such a heart warming wedding celebration, and we hope this look into their day puts a smile on your face, too.

We were so amped up for Keri and Derek’s big day after the trek we took with them during their engagement session. The couple decided to tie the knot at an amazing venue we hold dear to hearts here at KJAD. The Barn at Glistening Pond in Falls, Pennsylvania always provides such a rustic, romantic atmosphere. Responsible for that atmosphere are the owners, DJ and Denise, who go way further than above and beyond to ensure that everything runs perfectly (they’re some of the sweetest people ever, too). Keri and Derek held their ceremony inside the newest addition to the venue; an intimate building neighboring the barn that has an epic waterfall inside! After the sweetest of ceremonies and the most romantic first dance, the newlyweds started the party off with a round of The Shoe Game. Speaking of sweet, or should we say lack there of, Keri and Derek managed to shut down a local favorite ice cream shop that she used to work at. Yeah, Curly Cream Crew! They were a blast!! The happy couple are such easy-going, sweet people that they made it so effortless for everyone to just slow down, be together, celebrate love, and remember what’s important… friends, family, experiences, and caring for one another. Oh, and epic sunset photos! The sky may not have given us a crazy sunset that night, but it was so impressivley moody.
Congrats, Keri and Derek!!

Simple, sweet, and intimate.. That’s how Dana and Janet chose to celebrate their special day at the gorgeous Stroudsmoor Country Inn surrounded by their closest friends. Not only did the happy couple have the sweetest no-look first look, they also had an even sweeter first look right before walking down the aisle. Their ceremony was held at the Inn’s Ridgecrest Stone Hearth with the most incredible view of the Cherry Valley Wildlife Sanctuary. It was the most perfect day to spend some time amongst the greenery and celebrate the new misses and misses!
Congrats to Dana and Janet!!

Carlena and Kyle are much more than high school sweet hearts. They take it to the next level with the title of middle school sweet hearts. They also make it very clear, so much that their friends and family can see it, that they are simply meant to be together. That confidence you feel when you ‘just know’ is beyond any words in any dictionary; something to cherish for a lifetime. We got to celebrate their larger than life love at Constantino’s gorgeous venue in Clarks Summit. The bride and her dad choreographed the coolest father daughter dance followed by much more fancy footwork on the dance floor. After breaking it down, their guests got to part with a super sweet Italian Wedding Tradition; five candy coated almonds. The almonds are coated in candy with hopes that couple’s married life will be more sweet than bitter. Each of the five almonds represents a wish for the newlyweds; longevity, heath, wealth, happiness, and fertility. We love seeing couples incorporate different traditions into their big day. Congrats, Carlena and Kyle!
