Claire and Wesley live out of state, and as much as I had hoped to meet them before the big day, it wasn’t in the cards for us.  You can imagine my excitement when I first saw her…getting laced up into her Wedding Dress in her childhood bedroom! ♥  She was absolutely stunning, and so was her celebration.

I can’t say enough praise about the quaint little town of Geneseo, NY and most specifically, the Sweet Briar Inn & Spa overlooking the Genesee Valley.  Myself and my husband were married there just a few short years ago, and every time I go back, I fall in love with it all over again.  You don’t have to get married to enjoy it either; visit for a little getaway and tell their sweetheart coordinator Will, I sent you.  :)

So, onto the Wedding!

I love how she still had her Beatles poster on the wall, and an old photo strip of her and her fiance taped to her mirror.  ♥

A note, gently lying on the bed

She’s ready ~ wow!

Dad walking her down the aisle ~ so proud and happy ♥

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs.!

Bubbles!

And we’re off to Sweet Briar to celebrate!

 

 

Enough formals ~ let’s celebrate ~ LIMBO time!  LOL :D

Mingling and laughter make the best pictures!

Our DJ, John with Encore Signature Events was A.mazing ~ played all the right hits and perfectly professional.  This crowd could DANCE!

“Grab somebody sexy…tell ‘em Hey!”

“Come on get me, get me on the floor…DJ what you, what you waiting  for!”

Dancing ALL night long

Congratulations Claire and Wesley!  Keep on Dancin’ til the world ends! ♥

It’s amazing to me just how many Weddings I have been chosen for this year that are the result of praise and happiness from past celebrations!  Liz is best friends with a mom that was a guest at a past Wedding where I photographed her baby boy and she has been following me ever since because of those images.  As a photographer, you never know the impact your pictures are going to create for all the different lives you come in contact with ~ it amazes me to no end.  I absolutely love photographing children and her baby boy was the cutest thing ever and I could have easily followed him around for the entire reception that day. :)

So, now that the mom’s best friend got Engaged ~ she instantly suggested my services to the Bride to be, and the rest is history…here we are celebrating their Engagement and future Wedding at the Rochester Yacht Club!

The couple, Liz and Tom, actually live in California!  They’ve been planning their entire Wedding long distance with the help of their amazing family and friends.  I really wanted to meet them before their Big day and to give them a chance to enjoy their Engagement session together…so luckily on their recent trip home to NY, we made it happen.  Buffalo was the closest we got, so I made the trip out there, and was able to photograph them in their families beautiful back yard.  It’s so nice getting to photograph my couples at different locations ~ especially when they choose places that have special meaning to them.  I love it, and I love these photos, and I couldn’t be more excited to see them enjoy their celebration together in just a few more weeks.

Congratulations Liz & Tom ~ have fun and I’ll see you soon!

I was first introduced to Niki & Pete through Rachel of  Events Made Easy and have been blessed ever since.  Being referred by other couples, and Wedding vendors is such a treat and I am always beside myself with thankfulness for their praise.  If it weren’t for her referral, I probably wouldn’t have met them…and that would have been very sad ~ they’re such a super sweet couple! ♥  If you didn’t get to see their Engagement session, you can view it here ~ be prepared to stop and stay a while! :)

Their Big Day was held out in Bloomfield, in the home that Niki grew up in and where her parents still live.  What a beautiful historic home out in the countryside…as soon as you pulled up to it, you were wrapped in a big welcoming hug.  When I saw the reception tent off in the distance, I became so excited for the rest of the days events…I couldn’t wait to get started!

 

Off to the church ~ time to get Married! :)

Incredible flowers…I’ve never seen anything like them!

It’s time! :)

 

 

Congratulations!!! :D

Off to Warner Castle/Sunken Gardens!

Enough of this ~ time to hit the A.C. and get back to the party! :)

YES!  That’s a couch!  So cool!

We got back in time for the Bride and Groom to mingle before introductions and enjoy some cocktails with their guests

Niki’s fabulous mom ~ she’s amazing! :)

I could have used one of those for my water! LOL

Time for introductions ~ one of the couples came riding in on the motorcycle and the rest ran behind them!

First dance ♥

After toasts, they were given these fantastic custom made goggles for snowboarding!

As the night started to settle in, the lights in the tent really lit up!  So much color ~ way to go ‘Events Made Easy!’

Some beautiful romantic pictures before dusk

Let’s get this party started!

I love how the light glowing from inside outlines the bike

Those sunglasses everyone was wearing were their favors ~ great idea!

This is a sample page from the Guest Books I make with our Engagement Session images ~ everyone loves writing messages in them!

Have you ever seen a Wish Lantern release before? It’s the equivalent of a mini hot air balloon, and when released into the night sky, the person/people releasing them will traditionally make a wish for the Bride and Groom ♥

Congratulations Niki & Pete!  Your Wedding was amazing, and I wish you so much love and happiness as you begin your journey as Husband and Wife ~ in Ibiza – wow!! :D

The view as I was leaving … the A.C. was calling me…but the view made me want to stay ~ what an amazing celebration!

With Love and air conditioning,

Sue
