Melissa and Joseph had the easiest choice of choosing us as their wedding photographers because Joseph’s sister Maria loved our work from their wedding a few years ago. We create a special bond with our couples because we’ve spent such an intimate day with them, and our work continues to bring them emotional memories for years to come. When we continue our work with their family members, it deepens the bond even more.
From the initial Zoom call with Missy and Joe all the way till the end of the wedding night, the playful couple was just full of excitement for the day and prioritizing enjoying their time while we make sure to capture all of it. Joe’s reaction to seeing Missy for the first time walking down the aisle at St Mary of Mt Virgin was priceless. He had an ultimate hand over mouth-hold it in expression that really showed how he could barely hold it in. Joe’s suit was sharp, and Missy’s wedding dress was just absolutely stunning with an ultra long glamorous veil that enhances the entire classic vibe that we love so much.
Our favorite part of the day was hitting up one of their favorite bars to go – Destination Dogs. This is not a location where you’d expect to see a bride and groom to pop in for a drink or to order a hot dog. The owners were generous to give them special access to the kitchen where Missy flipped some hot dogs while Joe prepped the condiments. Personal touches to the wedding day like a favorite location portrait session is what really sets the special day apart from other couples. We love using the environment to influence the story that the couple creates that day.
The reception was at The Palace at Somerset Park with their newly renovated space. The massive space of this venue dedicated to Missy and Joe’s wedding day was truly grand. The massive ceilings, grand chandeliers, and all white facia made it feel like a castle for royalty to get married. It was a blast capturing their wedding guests partying so hard that night, nobody was holding back! Time flies by so quick for weddings like this because everyone including us are having fun. We truly enjoyed how wonderful Missy and Joe are – their high spirited and fun loving personalities is where we get our inspiration from. Seeing our lovely past couples at the wedding also brings back great memories and remind us of why we love our job.
