What an epic wedding day!! Mandi and Shaun chose to celebrate their special day on May 4th, and the force was definitely with them! From the Star Wars watch Mandi gifted to Shaun to their three pound white chocolate cake topper straight from Disney, the couple’s personalities shone through in every little detail. We even noticed a trail of glitter from the start of the day all the way to Constantino’s where the reception was held. Our favorite part of the day, other than seeing Mandi and Sean get married, had to be running from the Luzerne County Courthouse and over the Market Street Bridge to Kirby Park to snap some amazing shots of the newlyweds in their horse pulled carriage… that counts as a 5k, right!? We also can’t forget about Mandi’s sister’s speech that caught all of us off guard when a doorbell began to ring introducing a Domino’s Delivery Driver. It turns out that Shaun likes to order Domino’s.. often, so Mandi’s sister thought it would be the perfect gift for Shaun on his wedding day! Gotta love sister-in-laws! Speaking of in-laws, we couldn’t have said it better than Mandi’s new brother-in-law, Billy, in wishing the happy couple…

“May the Fourth be with your marriage!”

P. S. Mandi would like everyone to know (especially you, Billy) that she did, in fact, finish her drink during her and Shaun’s reveal party at our studio!

Yay, Kristyn and Gary! They decided to celebrate their wedding day at Constantino’s gorgeous venue, but not without making a pit stop at the Electric City Trolley Museum first for some shots of the wedding party! Woop, woop! Or should we say, Clang, clang!?!

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!

We love being a part of the whole wedding journey with every couple, especially when we get to start with their engagement photos. After spending the day in Jim Thorpe with Ben and Stacey for their engagement session, we were excited to spend their big day at Constantino’s in Clarks Summit. Constantino’s is a unique venue that offers a place to prep for the day, a ceremony location, and a reception room. We’re used to seeing ceremonies held outside here, but since it was raining (which we heard is good luck!) Stacey and Ben were able to tie the knot inside at the venue before dancing the night away. We hope you enjoy this look into their day!
