Hannah and Steven celebrated their best day ever at Stonehedge Country Club surrounded by the gorgeous rolling hills of Tunkhannock. We really lucked out with the most perfect cotton candy sky during sunset, but no where near as much as Hannah and Steven lucked out with the each other. We were especially blown away by their by their DIY periodic table of elements-esque decor. Check it out below! Congrats to the newlyweds!!

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!

Meet The Masters! No, not the golf tournament, although we did spend some beautiful moments on the green at The Country Club of Scranton with The Masters; Adrienne and Justin. The most epic willow tree lives right in the middle of the course and proved to be quite an epic backdrop, as well. We were almost as blown away as Adrienne’s father when we saw her in her stunning dress by Hayley Paige. Adrienne and her father had one of the sweetest first looks; it warms our hearts. After tying the knot, the couple wowed everyone with a choreographed Waltz before their reception, and the dancing continued on well after that. We hope you enjoy their photos as much as we do. Congrats to The Masters!! Yay!

It’s been said that you can see a bride glow on her wedding day. Maybe the glow comes from all of the excitement, perhaps the wedding rings, or possibly a beautiful bouquet. However, most people think it comes when the bride puts on her perfect wedding dress. Ashleigh and her dress by Hayley Paige were such a perfect match that they both made each other glow. There was one greater match on July 7th though, and that match is, of course, Ashleigh and John. They had the most gorgeous of wedding days at Friedman Farms in Dallas, PA. From the sweetest father-daughter dance to the sweetest cupcake display by The Sweet Lush Cupcakery (like always), we had such a blast celebrating the newlyweds!! Congrats, Ashleigh and John!

Yes, it is true what they say.. couples who hand stand together, stay together. That is what they say, right? The best man even began his heart-felt speech with the fun fact that Megan and E. J. love doing, you guessed it, hand stands together. Then the newlyweds proved it when they asked ever so sweetly if we can take a photo of E. J. in action (see below!). Throughout their special day it was easy to see that it wasn’t just the acrobatics keeping this couple together. We could tell how much the family and friends who surrounded Megan and E. J. love and support them. E. J.’s great uncle performed the most beautiful marriage ceremony, and they had the most expert flower girl with them every step of the way. We also got to celebrate their love at a venue we have never been to before, and it was incredibly gorgeous!! YAY! The Lodge at Mountain Springs Lake in Reeders, PA is filled with breath-taking backdrops, huge windows overlooking lush greenery, and plenty of space for… handstands. Sorry, we couldn’t contain ourselves there. Congrats to the happy couple! We hope you enjoy a glimpse into their wedding day!!

It may have been the hottest day of the year, but that didn’t stop Charlene and Jon from having the most amazing day ever. When the day starts off with a Risky Business-esque dance party, you know it’s going to be an epic one. We spent our time celebrating the bride and groom wandering around Penn State’s Wilkes-Barre Campus before the dancing, singing, and cake cutting. Be sure to check out their cake topper! We think it takes the.. cake! Congrats to the happy couple!
