Sneak Peek: Laurel And Patrick Wedding
The final part of our little mini series covers the wedding between Laurel and Patrick – a fun loving couple who has also been together for what seems like an eternity! As you might remember, we did an engagement session for them for them back in July …
Because their wedding was taking place a bit earlier in the day, we headed out early Sunday morning to meet up with the bride in Wayne New Jersey to provide some coverage of her and the rest of the bridal party getting ready before the ceremony. From the hair to the makeup, we snapped shots of it all as Laurel and Patrick are very similar to us – they love photographs and capturing those little details!
Since we would also be covering the wedding and reception via video as well, Sean (my brother and trusted videographer) decided to tag along a bit early so he could add some of his own style to our photographs before he was needed behind the video lens. He added his own views to our shots and helped get the bride, groom and anyone else positioned for some of our shots.
As Laurel finished up and headed over to the Tides in Haledon, Sean and I went down the hallway of the hotel to meet up with Patrick and his groomsmen. Though a bit nervous for the big day ahead, Patrick was ready to get married more than any groom I’ve met before. We were able to translate that energy into some great shots of Patrick in the room and in the nearby elevator (which I think we broke).
Once we were all set, Sean and I headed out for the Tides to capture Laurel in the final stages before the ceremony. Unfortunately, we missed a turn and took the long way around. After a few sweaty moments of not knowing where we were or where we were going, we finally found the right road and made a dash for the Tides.
The rest of the day went extremely smooth and we captured some incredible shots of this amazing couple. After a great cocktail hour, a few drinks and a very good DJ and MC … nearly everyone at the reception was jammed onto the dance floor having the time of their lives.
As the night finally wound down, we all looked at each other and couldn’t believe how fast the day had gone. Here is a sneak peek from one very fun wedding …
