Here are a few shots from the day:

Some flair for the bride’s shoes and beautiful bouquet.

The Homewood Suites were perfect accommodations for the bride to get ready.

What a beautiful bride!

The altar had a pastoral feel and the kiss that marked the beginning of a new life together.

The cake, simple yet elegant.

The couple escaped for a brief respite from the festivities.

Congratulations Natasha and Andrew!!! Thanks for letting Candeo Photo capture this important milestone in your lives!

Ceremony: Martha-Mary Chapel at The Wayside Inn, Sudbury, MA
Reception: The Wayside Inn
Bride’s Dress: Maggie Sottero from Special Events Bridal, Marlborough, MA
Hair & Makeup: Roc’s Salon, Marlborough, MA
Jewelry: JoyDen Jewelers, Marlborough, MA
Cake: The Wayside Inn
Flowers: Apple Valley Flower Shoppe, Hudson, MA

 

 

 
Karen’s jewelry was provided by JoyDen Jewelers and it was perfect.
 

 
Karen and her family are originally from England, and clearly David has a love for all things British. Karen took a few moments to have some photos taken with David’s beautiful Triumph TR6.
 

 
The rain wasn’t slowing down Karen at all. She’s so thoughtful that she bought a clear umbrella so as not to block too much light. I was very appreciative.
 

 
The ring bearer looked great in his tiny tuxedo.
 

 
David waited patiently in the rain at the back of the church for Karen to arrive.
 

 

 

 

 
The rain prevented us from taking too many photos outside, so we spent a few minutes after the ceremony in the chapel for the bridal portraits.
 

 

 

 
We did manage to get a few quick shots outside the chapel.
 

 
A horse and carriage was Karen’s mode of transportation between the Wayside Inn and the chapel.
 

 
The Wayside Inn in Sudbury, MA is America’s oldest operating Inn, providing food and lodging for travelers since 1716. It’s rooms are unique and full of historic charm, and provided a great backdrop for some more bridal portraits.
 

 

 

 
The cake was simple and elegant, with fresh flowers on top.
 

 
The Best Man’s toast was short and sweet.
 

 
Then Karen’s father gave a great toast, which was more like a roast of his daughter. He had the whole room in stitches.
 

 
Even though the wedding was small, there wasn’t room in the reception hall for a dance floor. This was ok by Karen and David because they didn’t plan on dancing. Instead, they hired 3 amazing guitar players to provide a musical backdrop for the evening.
 

 

 

 

 
Toward the end of the night, it turned into a sing-along. Karen, David, their families, and their friends sat around the guitar players singing loudly. The musicians even started taking requests.
 

 
Karen’s father was one of the lead vocalists and is quite the character.
 

 

 
Congratulations Karen and David, we hope you got a ton of great photos from your honeymoon!

Well, a few weeks later we got an e-mail from Nicole requesting a meeting to discuss pricing and availability. And the rest, as they say, is history.

We had a blast photographing Nicole and James’ Engagement Session at Benmarl Winery last fall. After that session, we could hardly wait for their wedding to come. The wedding was everything we expected – fun, family, excitement, adventure, and emotion. Nicole and James, we hope that we were able to capture it all so that you can remember it forever. Thanks for being such big fans of our work, and we wish you nothing but happiness.

Lots of bling for Nicole and James…
 

 

 

 
Mom and bridesmaids look on as Nicole ties her sash.
 

 

 

 
Nicole’s dress was just gorgeous.
 

 

 
Some great shots of Nicole and her Dad.
 

 

 
After Nicole and James exchanged rings, Nicole glanced down to admire them and take it all in.
 

 

 

 

 

 
Classic B&W limo shot.
 

 
Nicole and James wanted to stop at their apartment to take some photos on the grounds. Their adorable dog, Miso, got in on the action too.
 

 

 
When we got to Villa Borghese, we had some quiet moments on the outdoor terrace.
 

 

 
Nicole and James had their whole first dance choreographed.
 

 

 
The cake was provided by La Deliziosa Bakery in Poughkeepsie and it was simple and elegant.
 

 
Dance Party!
 

 
James prepared a photo slideshow of images from their childhood through present time. It was a surprise for Nicole and all the guests, and I think from the reactions in this photo you can tell everyone really enjoyed it. We were honored that James used so many of the photos from our engagement session in the slideshow.
 

 
Congratulations Nicole and James!

The wedding ceremony was at the quaint Immaculate Conception Church in Haines Falls and the reception followed at Hunter Mountain. Every moment of the day, from the first dash of hairspray to the last dance, was relaxed, fun, and done with class. Kelly and Ed, thanks for letting us share in your special day to document the happiness that exists between you. Your love shines through in all the photos and we hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed taking them.

Preparations: Kaatskill Mountain Club
Ceremony: Immaculate Conception Church
Reception: Hunter Mountain
Bride & Bridesmaid Dresses: Alfred Angelo from Town Shop Bridals & Formals
Hair and Makeup: laV Beauty
Cake: JaBelli’s Bakery
Flowers: Douglas Koch Designs, Ltd.
DJ: Roger Maben

 
Karen and Shashana from laV Beauty did a great job on the girls’ hair and makeup.
 

 

 
Ed and the guys were ready in no time, so we had plenty of time to snap some photos before heading to the church.
 

 

 
Rockstar Ed…
 

 
Kelly’s dad and Maid of Honor and sister Niki helped her up the stairs of the church.
 

 

 
I think this photo truly captures the happiness that Kelly feels when she is around Ed.
 

 
Right after the priest introduced Kelly and Ed as husband and wife, they shared this warm embrace on the alter, such a great moment.
 

 
Douglas Koch Designs did a great job on the floral arrangements.
 

 
North/South Lake provided a nice backdrop for some of the bridal portraits and bridal party photos.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
Kelly and Ed really like grass, so the place card table was covered with live patches of sod and the cake was decorated with blades of grass as well.
 

 

 

 
Both Niki and Scott killed in their toasts to the couple, and had the whole room laughing with good stories about Kelly and Ed.
 

 
We captured so many great shots of Kelly dancing with her father. This one stood out above the rest however, as Kelly looked up at her dad while her sister Niki snapped a photo in the background.
 

 
Kelly and Ed went easy on each other with the cake tasting, but Kelly did take the opportunity to smash some cake in the face of her bridesmaid Meg as Ed laughed in the background.
 

 
The guests had a blast dancing the night away to the classic tunes played by Roger Maben.
 

 
Ed and his best man Scott rock out with some of their friends as they scream the words to some vintage 80′s hair metal.
 

Congratulations Kelly and Ed!

The ceremony was at the beautiful St. Mary’s Church, in Baldwinsville, NY. The giant cathedral ceiling and the stained glass windows made a wonderful setting to get married. After a few quick pictures inside and out, we headed down the street to Mohegan Manor for the reception. Even though the grounds at Mohegan Manor are small, they provided many great locations for photographing the bride and groom. The sun was setting, and the light was warm and glowing.

Stephanie, Dennis, their families, and their friends had a blast the rest of the night eating, drinking, and dancing. They were even able to extend the party by an hour because they didn’t want it to end! By the time the music stopped, we felt like part of the family – we’re so thankful to have such wonderful clients and friends.

 
Ceremony: St. Mary’s Church
Reception: Mohegan Manor
Bride’s Dress: Spybaby Bridal
Hair and Makeup: Hair by Vincent
Cake: Patisserie
Floral Boquets: Greene Ivy Florist

Vincent used fresh flowers in Stephanie’s hair and it looked great.

Katherine caught this moment as Alexa tried to relieve Stephanie’s nerves just before the ceremony started.

I love this moment when Stephanie’s Grandfather gave her away as Dennis’ Mom looks on with happiness.

Look at the gorgeous ceiling in St. Mary’s Church. We almost needed a wider lens to take it all in.

The bridal party posing on the steps of the church.

Some shots from the bridal portrait session at Mohegan Manor before the reception.

Some of the details at the reception.

Dennis’ Dad, also the best man, gave a really funny toast that had everyone in the room laughing.

The wedding cake from Patisserie had fresh flowers on it, and in Italian wedding tradition, Dennis’ family provided home made Italian cookies on each table.

After dinner, the party moved to the top floor of Mohegan Manor where the dancing commenced. Stephanie and Dennis made a grand entrance during introductions. Eddy captured this nice shot of Dennis dancing with his Mom during the Mother/Groom dance.

Stephanie and Dennis sharing their first dance as husband and wife as their family and friends look on.

Eddy grabbed this shot of Stephanie and her Grandfather dancing.

Stephanie and Dennis had a lot of fun dancing.

Exhausted at the end of the night, Stephanie took a minute to put her feet up and relax with her bridesmaids.

Congratulations Stephanie and Dennis and thank you so much for letting us be a part of your Wedding day. Your families are wonderful and really made us feel special and welcome. We really hope you enjoy all the photos.

A few details…

The beautiful bride!

Followed by the handsome groom…

Marjorie, Johnny, we wish you the best in the years to come!

Thanks for letting us be a part of your beautiful day!

Both the ceremony and reception were at Dutchess Manor in Beacon, NY. It was an outdoor ceremony overlooking the Hudson River and the weather was beautiful. We all headed inside after the formals and bridal portraits, and watched the sunset over the river as Jesseca, Justin, and their guests partied the night away. The two DJs from Dance Time DJ really got into the party and kept the music pumping until the very end. The number of awesome dance shots we captured is a testament to how much fun they all had.

 
Ceremony and Reception: Dutchess Manor
Bride’s Dress: Precious Memories Bridal and Formal Fashions
Hair and Makeup: Dazzles Hair Salon
Floral Boquets: Flowers by Reni
Music: Dance Time DJ

 
The dress and floral arrangements were beautiful…

… and so was the bride.

There’s no substitute for capturing true happiness in a photograph.

Bride and bridesmaids.

Jesseca with Mom and Dad – they all have wonderful eyes.

I love this shot of Jesseca’s mom getting her camera ready in anticipation of Jesseca and her dad walking down the aisle.

The flower petals in the aisle were a nice touch – much more practical for an outdoor wedding than a standard runner.

Eddy came up with the idea to do a 1900′s style wedding pose, so we edited it in a style that was consistent.

Justin looking good.

Jesseca and Justin’s first dance.

I captured this shot of the father/daughter dance as the warm sun was setting over the west bank of the river.

I wasn’t kidding when I said they partied the night away. When people are having fun, it makes our job so much easier.

Jesseca and Justin, it was a pleasure to photograph your wedding. We hope you enjoy the photos, and thank you for letting us be such a big part of your day and making us feel like part of the family.

– Nick & Eddy

Such a stunning bride.

I love the emotion on the Pastor’s face in the background.

Rockstar!

This crew really knew how to party. They danced the night away until the very end. It was a really fun place to be.
