Mallorie & Daniel | Essex House NY

You know it was an extraordinary event when your biggest challenge in post production is figuring out what NOT to put in to the teaser! Yet again we were blessed with the most amazing bride and groom! Stunning on the outside, and unbelievably gorgeous on the inside. Words cannot describe the incredible moments throughout this day. From the precious bracelet handed down to the Mallorie by her BFF /  striking mother, to Dan’s hand shaking reaction when he opened Mallorie’s gift (had us all drooling). Then there was the “Man of Honor” speech that had the entire room in tears, and the emotional parent dances that made time stand still. The incredible band had everyone dancing like crazy and yes…air double dutching on the dance floor! And of course the jaw dropping details all put together by the fabulous Jason Kwintner, of Essex House (who was in all his glory when Mallorie and Dan first stepped into the ballroom and were literally speechless). Dare we mention the spectacular cake Mallorie and Dan designed together with the Sweet Genius himself Ron Ben-Israel? And let us not forget Mallorie and Dan’s HILARIOUS and oh so fun bridal party! The day was chock full of eye candy indeed...Though what truly made the day magical, was  Mallorie and Dan's wonderful history shared...their laughs, their tears, and their infectious love for one another.  It was a very special day for everyone to say the least and we are so honored to have been there to capture it!

Nicole & Dave | Yale Club NYC

This wedding is extraordinarily special for us particularly since this drop dead gorgeous bride is my very own BFF! Being a part of her wedding was extremely emotional and surreal. But enough about me!
Nicole and Dave's inspiring love story is one to be told. Once together many years ago life took Nicole and Dave in different directions. We always hoped that one day they would be together again. Their paths did cross many times however, the timing was just not right. We all know the saying "What is meant to be will always find its way". Well eleven years later what was meant to be found its way! We all had the incredible honor of witnessing this amazing couple marry then have their first dance while staring in to each other's eyes literally, as though no other person was in the room with them. It was  an incredible vision. Needless to say we have the footage to prove it!
The event itself was absolutely breathtaking. The theme I would say was "elegance / romance" and it seemed as though every couple in the room fell in love with each other all over again. From the exquisite location and stunning details to the spectacular band, it was truly an evening to remember and one I personally will always cherish.
Nicole and Dave, we are so excited that you are married!!!!! You are so beautiful together and we love you so much!  Wishing you all the love and happiness  in the world.

Amy & Jonathan | Battery Gardens NY

Talk about "going out with a bang"! Amy and Jonathan's wedding was the last of our 2012 season. We knew it was going to be an amazing day but we had no idea how memorable it would be!
Despite the challenges of having to evacuate their hotels before arriving for pictures (oh did we mention Battery Park, NY was called "Zone A" for Hurricane Sandy?) Amy & Jonathan's wedding was absolutely incredible. Although the day was a bit crazy for everyone, I was all smiles all day because I knew we would have the most amazing footage for Amy and Jonathan to look back on. What an incredible story for them to tell about the day they were married! No one would ever believe how cool and collected Amy (a bride!) was especially considering all the madness that day, ehem receiving a mandatory evacuation notice during hair and makeup! Needless to say the wedding went off without a hitch. Amy looked so so beautiful...and when Jonathan turned around to see her for the first time as his bride, it was the most perfect moment anyone could imagine. What an extraordinary day to say the least and we are so very thankful to have been a part of it. XO!

When Nancy asked us to take part in her daughter's spectacular wedding event at The Mandarin Oriental NY, we knew that we were in for a treat! Melissa & Ricardo looked unbelievably stunning. The entire floor...jaw dropping! Every detail was simply flawless thanks to Dawn of State Of The Art NYC who was such a pleasure to work with. It was truly an evening to remember!

Jodelle & Michael | The Palace At Somerset Park

Four words...First, Dance, Yummy, Treat!!! Well if you asked us to describe Jodelle and Mike in just a few words we tell you how genuine, sweet, and funny they are...and when you put those two on the dance floor together...they are Wheeew...Super HOT!
Before their wedding day, Jodelle and Mike told us that they wrote their own vows to each other, although they could not read them in church. What an incredible surprise for everyone and especially for us (ehehem...awesome footage) that Mike decided to to read them during his loving toast to Jodelle that evening. Gosh these two are amazing and lucky for us we were there to witness their vey special wedding day!

Katie-Rose & Sean | Ballroom At The Ben

I am trying to think of words to describe our day with Katie-Rose and Sean and the truth is there are none. Everything about this couple...their personalities, their chemistry, their families, their friends, THEIR WEDDING DAY...so genuine, so loving, so joyous, and dare I say so fabulous. Their first dance especially was something extraordinary. When we first spoke and they mentioned "swing dance" the first thought was..."okay, this will be fun". They went on to explain that the dance was not choreographed and were taking lessons so they were going to (for lack of better words) swing it on the dance floor. Well...the minute Katie-Rose and Sean took their first dance steps that night the entire room went crazy! It was so much fun and a total treat for us all! Needless to say, the entire day was amazing and we are so grateful to have been there to capture it. We LOVE our couples so much!

Kelly & Ryan HOT Hot Shot

As Promised! Check out Kelly & Ryan's HOT Hot Shot screened  during their stuning wedding at the Philadelphia Arts Ballroom. These two certainly know how to rock the camera! Peppe, Jack, and I had such a blast filming this with them and we are so happy to finally share it!
We LOVED shooting this piece with Kelly and Ryan at the beautiful Laurita Winery here in NJ.
We knew we had to move quickly in order to make everything happen while the sun was just right for this "dreamy" concept. Lucky for us, Kelly and Ryan were amaaaazing in front of the camera and we could have spent all day with them! Stay tuned for their Wedding Teaser coming soon!
