Angelica and Larry had a gorgeous wedding ceremony on the sunset terrace at The Henderson. The wind was no joke that day – mad props to their coordinator Forever I Do Weddings for keeping those floral arrangements in place. There was some serious magic going on there! Congrats again to this wonderful couple!

Kyleigh and Jose had the most romantic elopement ceremony. They had a stunning sunset, empty beach, absolutely adorable baby…the whole ceremony couldn’t have been better. From her hair to her makeup to her dress, Kyleigh was perfectly styled, and she, Jose and their baby looked impeccable. Congrats Kyleigh and Jose!

It was an honor capturing Debra’s Air Force and Navy retirement ceremony. I’m so glad her husband reached out to me about filming this event for her because, even though I don’t know her personally, hearing her long list of accomplishments was truly inspiring. She hasn’t just succeeded professionally; she’s also one of the hardest working volunteers I’ve come across. She spends her time contributing to her community, helping those in need, and it was amazing hearing about all of the things she’s done (she’s also a certified scuba diving instructor so ya know, she does it all!). Congrats again to Debra, and thank you for inspiring those around you to do more.

I think everyone who gets married at Eden Gardens should do their first dance under the pavilion. You have a literal stage to share your first dance as a married couple. It doesn’t hurt that it’s serene and romantic and picturesque and absolutely perfect for magical wedding day moments. Thank you Jessica and Andrew for having me capture this special moment. It was the perfect finale to your wedding ceremony.
Venue: Eden Gardens State Park
Caroline and Brandon had such a great wedding day. They had one of the best bridal parties ever. Everyone was helping and doing their part to make it all come together. And the same goes for their families. There was so much love and support…and a very well timed high five. Their vows were personal and heartfelt and funny and sincere. Everything about their wedding day felt very genuine. I did something a little different this time and edited in some photos and footage that Caroline sent me from their wedding day (from after my coverage time was over). I’m trying to figure out how to work that into my packages because I enjoy including that guest point of view and also being able to add in events from outside of my coverage time. Congrats Caroline and Brandon on finding your “One Piece”.

I loved Norris & Nichole’s energy. They were happy, they were fun, they were relaxed, & their whole wedding ceremony was an absolute delight. Congrats Norris & Nichole – I hope all of my 2024 weddings are as wonderful as yours was.

Erin and Greg had one of my favorite wedding days of 2023. From flower guys and bride tosses to family dances and table dashes, it was a party from start to finish. They also had one of the coolest wedding cakes I’ve ever seen (skip ahead to about the 7:30 mark to check out this beauty by Bonne Vie Specialty). Congrats Erin and Greg!

I don’t want to spoil it…but I think this is the first time I’ve filmed a ceremony that ended in this sweet way. Congrats Brianna & John!

I am diggin the new guest chair/aisle trends at beach weddings. I think it’s so much nicer to have guests facing the aisle so they’re not turned around in their chairs trying to get a better view of the wedding party during the processional. Ashley and Malcolm’s guests chairs were faced at an angle so they could watch their beautiful bridal party’s entrance and have a great view of the ceremony. (Also you know you’ve been to way too many weddings when you get excited about different chair placement!) Congrats Ashley & Malcolm!

I am absolutely OBSESSED with Lexi and Jeremy’s ceremony on the bay. The dock on the water was the prettiest backdrop for their intimate backyard ceremony. Their vows to each other and their new family were so sweet and personal. And may we all be lucky enough to find someone who is there for us when we accidentally glue our eyelids shut and think we are going to be blind forever…Congrats Lexi and Jeremy!
