Kristen and Sal | Tides Estate

It's always great for us to see familiar faces when we photograph a wedding, and Kristen and Sal's wedding was no exception. We actually met Kristen when she was a bridesmaid at her friend Christine's wedding. She told us that she knew after seeing how we work and seeing Christine & Mark's pictures, that we would be the photographers for her own wedding.

Here are a few of the images we got while Kristen was getting ready. Check out the pink shoes!


We absolutely love Kristen's hair clips!


We met up with Sal and his guys at Our Lady of the Magnificat, in Kinnelon. The stained glass behind the alter adds a great touch of color.



The celebration continued at The Tides Estate in North Haledon. We lucked out with the weather and were able to get a few outdoor pictures.





Below are some details from the reception. The cake was decorated with all icing flowers; and well, what can you say about the two cake toppers? The lighting, provided by Golden Note Entertainment really gave the party it's atmosphere.


Lights were projected onto the ceiling giving the room a night-sky look during the first dance.


Golden Note's signature black light set really got the party going, of course the hats and maracas given out didn't hurt either.




Below is what happens when you catch the garter meant for someone else....



We really had a great time photographing your wedding Sal and Kristen, thanks for choosing us to capture your special day!

Deanna & George | Meadowood Manor

Deanna and George had an absolutely gorgeous day for their wedding. The ceremony and reception both took place at the Meadow Wood Manor in Randolph, NJ. We started the day with some bridal prep pictures upstairs in the bridal suite. Deanna's cousin Jeanine Mangan did a fabulous job pulling double duty as both make-up artist and bridesmaid!

George and his guys looking handsome while waiting for the ladies to finish getting ready.



You know there has to be a story here. George broke his arm last week, hence the cast. We decided to put it to good use.







The following images were captured as Deanna and George met for the first time that day. We were able to photograph them from every angle!

Deanna's grandparents, after receiving the bouquet for celebrating their 61 years of marriage. It was a touching moment and you could see how they are still in love after so many years.



There was plenty of fun going on in the photo booth provided by Classic Photo Booth. We snagged some shots of Deanna and George taking their turn in the booth below.
