Morning details & getting ready
We started coverage with heirloom-meets-modern details: Maryβs pearls and earrings, the decorative soles on her shoes, the coupleβs shoes together, and Richβs watch with the engraving inside. Those little pieces set the tone.
Final touches in the suites brought the sweet moments: a flower girlβs face when she saw Mary, and a quick, emotional look from Maryβs mom as the gown was buttoned.
A trio of first looks
The afternoon flowed through three intentional reveals: Mary with her dad, Rich with his mom, and then Mary & Rich together. Keeping things close to the suites meant minimal movement and maximum calm before guests arrived.
Ceremony in the gardens
With Emmanuel βMannyβ Frye officiating, the processional set an elegant mood and Maryβs entrance swelled into a cinematic moment. After the recessional, we tucked the couple inside to keep the timeline smooth for family photos and wedding-party portraits.
Sunset portraits
We slipped out right at golden hour for a soft, pastel set on the groundsβno sand requiredβbefore bringing the couple back to join cocktail hour. (Sunset was 4:48 PM; we started at 4:25 PM to catch the best light.)
Reception highlights (aka: letβs party)
-
Grand entrance: Best Man & MOH kicked things off with bubbles, then Mary & Rich swept in and moved straight into their first dance to βMake You Feel My Love.β
-
Dinner: Pizza service (yes, including a heart-shaped pie for the newlyweds).
-
Toasts & a meaningful moment: After speeches, Mary presented a bouquet to honor her momβone of the nightβs most tender beats.
-
Dance floor open: We pulled a big group photo to launch the party, then sunglasses and light-up foam wands took it from there.
-
Last song: βGratitudeβ closed the night on a hands-in-the-air note.
