Abbey and Andrew were married in the middle of a town that is near and dear to their heart, Saratoga Springs. Abbey grew up in Saratoga and has nothing but incredible memories of the hustling and bustling town, especially during track season.

Two of my favorite details from their wedding day were their rings. Andrew’s ring used to be his Grandfather’s ring that was melted down and remade into his wedding band. Abbey’s was a vintage style that she fell in love with after seeing it at a jeweler in San Francisco. Andrew had it recreated by a local jeweler in Chicago, where they currently live. These little details are why I love styling while the bride begins her wedding day prep. No detail is ever too small to be of importance.

During the ceremony, a quote from Winnie the Pooh read by Andrew’s Mom really stirred up my emotions, "If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day so I never have to live without you."

Abbey and Andrew, you two really have a special place in my heart. May your days be filled with your genuine smiles, adventurous travel and loving like Winnie the Pooh. Xoxo

To say I simply adore this family is an understatement. I met Jack and Maura a little over three years ago at Jack’s brother’s wedding, reconnected a year later at Jack’s sister’s wedding and was thrilled to be able to photograph their long awaited wedding two weekends ago. It was INCREDIBLE!

Jack and Maura met at Fairfield University, where they happened to live right across the hall from each other. It was truly love at first sight. Jack proposed to Maura last year in front of the NYC skyline and they celebrated later that evening with their families. This is one thing that I simply adore about Jack, Maura and their families. Family is everything to them. They make time to vacation together, visit siblings in other states and make sure that family is their priority. They also know how to keep a dance floor packed all night long. One of my favorite parts of their wedding day was that they chose to get married at the Fairfield University chapel. They took it back to their relationship roots!

Congrats Jack and Maura! I hope you had a wonderful honeymoon in Hawaii. I wish you many years surrounded by love and your loved ones, and filled with as many genuine smiles as I witnessed on your wedding day. Love you guys!

Congrats to this stunning couple, Gabby and Alex, on their recent marriage in Saratoga Springs, NY. Their insanely gorgeous wedding was held in upstate NY at one of my favorite tented reception venues, Saratoga National Golf Club. I always know it is going to be planned to perfection when I see Christine Wheat’s name on the wedding team. It was an incredibly fun day, with a great group of the couple’s family and friends, a killer wedding day wardrobe (come on look at Gabby’s dress and shoes!) and a packed dance floor! This couple can DANCE!

Gabby and Alex, you two are the BEST and congrats on becoming husband and wife!
