Congratulations to our stunning couple Beryl & Eric!  The pair looked as if they walked right out of a old Hollywood movie set.  Beryl glowed in an exquisite lace Pnina Tornai.  The couple began their day at The Hilton of Short Hills getting prepped for the big event.  The florist Eunice A. Valerio created some very inspired bouquets, unique and fresh.  The bridesmaids wore simple gold sheath dresses from Shoshanna.

The Rockleigh Country Club: Crystal & Lace: Part Two:New Jersey Wedding Photographers

So here is part two of Kelli & Nino's extravagant crystal & lace adorned reception!  We loved working with the lush grounds at The Rockleigh Country Club.  Daniel Florals and Events, Inc. really blew us away with their lighting design for the evening!  They created such a dramatic, high-end club feel and The Caleps really kept the guests on their toes dancing all night long.   The Cake Topper of Staten Island created the lavish four-layer cake adorned with edible flowers.    The C'est Papier Inc. invitations were simple and elegant from Sincerely Yours Custom Invitations, and the chocolate menus were good enough to eat! kelli_18_

The Rockleigh Country Club: Crystal & Lace: Part One: New Jersey Wedding Photographers

We were so excited to work with Kelli & Nino after photographing them for their engagement!  The gorgeous couple met ten years ago in their freshman year of college.  Kelli lovingly recalls,  "We started dating that summer and were inseparable ever since."  Nino proposed among the beautiful flowers at Montauk Manor.  Kelli, who works as an event planner herself, enlisted the help of Sincerely Yours Events to work with her creating a romantic candlelit English garden theme. Kelli went to Kleinfeld's to get her Pnina Tornai dress.  It fit like it was made just for her and the Manolo Blahnik cyrstal sandals she picked were the perfect finishing touch. Mancini Giuffre Salon in Staten Island did an exquisite job with hair and make up.  The bridesmaids were stunning in Vera Wang originals in a classic caramel with rhinestone accents that she found at Always a Bridesmaid Boutique.  Daniel Florals and Events Inc. created lush bouquets with feather accents and warm colors.  Nino and the boys looked dashing in Armani Collezioni.

The ceremony moved to Brooklyn at St. Ephrem's Parish.

Check out our blog in the next few days to see the stunning crystal adorned reception at The Rockleigh Country Club.

Eagle Oaks Country Club:Lindsay and Andrew: New Jersey Wedding Photographers

  _tmw2377

Lindsay and Andrew met out of all places at a wedding!  Two and a half years later on a hot summer day in Bryant Park they were taking a walk when Andrew grew 'faint'  and the couple sat down on a nearby bench.  Andrew then got down on one knee and proposed.  Afterwards they headed to a hotel for drinks where he surprised Lindsay with friends and family.  The wedding was set for the fall and Lindsay, inspired by the season, choose an autumn color palette.

The bouquets were fabulous with an exotic mixture of flowers and berries.  Lindsay's satin halter dress was simple elegant and most definitely a Vera Wang original purchased at Saks Fifth Avenue in the Short Hills Mall.  Vera Wang also did the invitations.  The shoes where rhinestone encrusted cream Jimmy Choo's, one of our favorite shoe makers!  David Yurman designed the blue topaz and diamond earings.

The bridesmaids wore Lazaro, purchased at Mustillos Town & Country Clothes & Bridals on Broad St. in Red Bank.  The rhinestone brooches ,a signature at look from Mustillo's, added such a lovely touch to the bridesmaids black satin dresses.

Oyster Point Hotel: Katie & Michael : Monmouth County Wedding Photographers

katie05 Katie and Michael seemed destined to meet, and it was Michael's mother who first saw the possibility.  Mrs. Daley was Katie's instructor when she was training to be a nurse anesthetist and she just saw the two hitting it off. It wouldn't be until much later that the couple meet. As fate would have it the couple ended up meeting by chance while on routine rounds, and they just clicked.  Michael ended up proposing on the boardwalk in New Jersey.

After that night on the boardwalk wedding preparations were in full swing, and Katie and Michael decided to bring in Jessica Stasinos of  The Social Butterfly to help plan their event.  The Social Butterfly even did the invitations of rich warm brown with decorative pink scroll-work.

Katie looked like royalty in her cream Emerald Couture gown with all its delicate beading and layering that she found at The Elegant Alternatives in Spring Lake.  The bridesmaids were stunning in their satin strapless gowns in a lovely classic pink by Bill Levkoff that Katie found on Antoinette Rose Bridal Boutique.  Vanity and Mascara provided the hair and makeup opting for soft flowing curls, smokey eyes, and a pale pink lip color.
