After reminiscing through Alyssa and Alex’s engagement photos from last year, we had some sort of excited butterflies throwing a party in our stomachs, too. All of the final details were put into place; the dreamy floral arrangements, Alyssa’s stunning veil, the warm June breeze, and even Alex’s socks that were donning his bride’s glowing smile. The ceremony was full of laughter and smiles. It totally left us swooning. Their celebration took us to the always beautiful Beaumont Inn in Dallas where the newlyweds were surrounded by all of the love from their family and friends. We think it’s safe to say that they definitely danced the night away. Congrats to The Ellsworths!!

Jessie and Bill celebrated their elegant wedding at The Westmoreland Club in downtown Wilkes-Barre. We always love finding our way into the nooks and crannies of the historic club building to get the most breathtaking shots with the bride and groom. We really enjoyed watching the groom get to ‘bowl down’ the wedding party before a night full of dancing and sparklers. Congrats to the newlyweds!

Adrienne and Josh go above and beyond to share their love for each other. From their family to their friends to all of the little details, nothing but thoughtfully tear-jerking surprises and the most humble care shone through on their wedding day. First, Adrienne’s mom surprised us all with a live polka duo upon arriving to her house after the salon in the morning. Adrienne surprised her step-daughter with a necklace that says, “Addisyn, today I tell your dad ‘I do’, and I promise to love you forever, too.” However, we think DJ Thomas Nat (who happens to be Adrienne’s uncle… surprise!) takes the cake. Before the wedding, DJ Nat had Adrienne record a special message for her dad and vice versa. The messages played during a photo slideshow that Uncle Thomas made for the bride and her father to watch right before their dance. Yes, tears. We still can’t stop smiling about their day, and we hope a glimpse into their day has you doing the same.

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!

“Connor, Danielle, and that train are now one in love.”- The One and Only Father Paisley

and WHOA, ‘that train’, is right! Watching it flow behind Danielle as she walked down the aisle and then beautifully flood close to the entire alter was jaw-droppingly incredible. We were just as blown away after we helped her lace up the trail into her dress for wedding reception mode.  Two dresses in one; so cool! Connor and Danielle’s wedding day was filled with so much family, friends, laughter, dancing, and… rain.  It poured the entire time everyone was getting ready for the day. The amazing pipe and drum duo that played before and after the ceremony were donning their best rain gear, and there was an intense mist that lasted throughout the reception. Lucky for us, the sky calmed down just long enough for the most stunning shots of the newlyweds out over the water at Split Rock. However, as Connor’s sister shared during her speech, rain really is lucky on your wedding because when a knotted rope gets wet it becomes more difficult to untie. So, by ‘tying the knot’ on a rainy day, you create the strongest bond. Which is exactly what Connor and Danielle did! We hope you enjoy their photos as much as we do!

From the wedding party’s color pallatte to Mallory and Bill’s cake and everything in between, the whole day exuded elegance. Their day encompassed everything you could ever want in a gorgeously classic wedding. We are just so over the moon about all of their photos. We hope each ones brings a smile to your face just like they did for us.

Annarose and Mitch had so many wonderful personal little moments together on their wedding day, and it was incredible getting to be a part of each of them. From their quiet and emotional few minutes together before the ceremony, in which they prayed together, to their afternoon portrait session when they got a chance to laugh, look back on the day, and enjoy the company of each other – privately… well of course we were there too… but technically it was just the two of them.  : )

Plus, being that it was an afternoon reception, we got a chance to finally have brunch at a wedding. Eggs, french toast AAAND bacon!! Now THAT was the best… oh wait… well not best part of their day, but you know what we mean… Bacon. Mmmm. Enjoy!
