I have to say… if Rene and I were to do it all again and if we were to have our wedding in the city, Colleen and Jay probably planned their wedding exactly as we would have. What an amazing day from beginning to end! There’s no better way to express it than with a sampling of some of our favorite images. So here goes!
I started the day with Colleen and her family and bridesmaids at a beautiful penthouse that was owned by Jay’s brother and wife. The views were just stunning and it was truly the perfect way to begin getting ready for the wedding. The thing about getting ready in a penthouse is that you’re typically high above the other buildings around you. For a photographer, that translates into GORGEOUS lighting. The sun also happened to be setting at that time and so I was literally bouncing around with excitement. And in between my bounces I was able to take these…
I love details…like the perfume Colleen wore that day:

And speaking of… here is the absolutely stunning Colleen herself:

Meanwhile, Rene was just a few blocks away from with us with Jay and all of his groomsmen getting ready. Although he did find someone who was a little less than enthused about all of the commotion:

And since we were all so close to the church, the guys decided skip the transportation and walk the few blocks instead:

Not only was the entire day amazing, but we’re also completely jealous of their honeymoon location, too! They’re currently enjoying an extended trip to South Africa! We’re just so excited to hear all about it when they come back home! Have a great time, guys!
Some of the other vendors that Colleen and Jay used were:
Coordinator: Trends and Traditions - Jenny and her staff are just phenomenal. We’ve worked with them before and we can’t say enough about the incredible amount of work they put into every wedding. They truly made this into the perfect evening for Colleen and Jay!
Florist: Jennifer Cahill, The Tangled Web. We’ve loved Jennifer’s work for years and actually use her ourselves whenever we need a florist! Her talent is just amazing - and she’s the sweetest person to work with, too!!
Band: Kahootz. What can we say? We have been the biggest fan of Kahootz for years. We always joke around with them that we’re their groupies. They’re truly an incredible band and keep the reception going all evening long. The energy these guys have is amazing and their talent is what makes them our favorite band!
