The Brookside Club Wedding – Cape Cod, MA | Quintin & Jacqueline

Both Jacqueline & Quintin are absolutely hysterical, and once we got them in the same room with all of their wonderful friends and family, I knew there was going to be a super fun and super crazy party! Their wedding did not disappoint! We were lucky enough to travel up to the gorgeous Brookside Club in Bourne, MA on Cape Cod.

There were so many helping hands at the house, including a few “helping paws” from the furry family members!

   

   

Jacqui had coordinated her wedding with the most gorgeous colors: Tiffany Blue and Pewter. I loved how different it looked! And their cake….I can’t say enough about how stunning it looked. The Artisan Bakeshop really did an incredible job with it! How perfect is that flower?!

The the love and emotion during Jacqueline & Quintin’s first dance was so cute. And then my emotions got away from me as when she danced with her father. The tears were flowing throughout the room!

   

I caught this cute little moment of Jacqui and her “two boys” observing a quiet moment outside alone through the window.

   

The other fabulous vendors at the wedding were:

Venue and Catering: The Brookside Club

Makeup and Hair: Claire Fleten

DJ: Jermain Evans

Cake: The Artisan Bakeshop

Flowers: Always in Bloom

Thank you Jacqueline & Quintin for having an amazing wedding and letting me be a part of it!

Christina & Jesse – Wedding Photography in Washington DC

One of my favorite things in the world to do is to travel! If it could, I would travel every week! When Christina and Jesse said they were getting married just outside Washington DC, I jumped at the opportunity!!

Their wedding was held at the super glamorous Ceresville Mansion. It was just perfect, and one of my absolutely favorite indoor ceremony sites ever! The lighting and room were gorgeous and you could just feel the love in the air!

Christina started her day at Renaissance Salon where she got beautified by their team! She was sooo gorgeous!

          

          

          

I just am in love with this…the quiet moment before she walks down the aisle. You can just see all of the excitement, anticipation, and serenity in her face!

     

          

          

All of their other vendors were incredible to help make every details perfect!

Nicole & Manny – Wedding Photography in New Haven, CT

Ever think about getting married in a tropical location with your close friends and family for a week long adventure? SURE, sounds exotic, relaxing, and fabulous!!!! Doesn’t mean you can’t come back and have a rockin’ party!!! This is exactly what Nicole and Manny did! They were smart and sipped tropical fruit drinks on the beach in Punta Cana with their friends, then came back and partied like rockstars with their extended family and friends to celebrate their big day!! I love this concept and think it is a great way to get married! (Don’t forget you can always book your favorite photographer AKA Amanda Rose Photography to come capture your destination wedding as well! wink wink)

Nicole and Manny’s wedding celebration was at Union League Cafe in New Haven and it was gorgeous. Nicole chose a non-traditional slate gray dress that was to die for! I loved it so much!! And of course, Manny looked dapper in his matching dark gray suit!

          

There was no shortage of dancing and fun at their wedding! It seemed like everyone had a blast! There were even two of their friends battling it out on the dancefloor…it was hysterical!!

Air Guitar duet…ohhh yeahhhh!

          

Thanks again Nicole & Manny for letting me be a party of  your huge celebration! Congrats again on your marriage!!

Brittney & Jake – Getting Ready – Wedding Photography in Sarasota, FL

I had the privilege of joining Brittney on her wedding day as she got ready. She and I go way back to when we were little girls! We grew up spending our summer together on Longboat Key in Florida and when she asked me to document her “pre-wedding” festivities, I was honored! She got ready at the Ritz Carlton in Sarasota. The room was full of excited bridesmaids, hair stylists, makeup artists, and tons of smiles. The day was gorgeous, but it couldn’t compete with how stunning Brittney looked! She was grinning ear to ear all morning!

          

          

          

          

          

          

Brittney had found the most beautiful pins to add to her ensemble that day. I like anything vintage or sparkly, so being that they were both vintage AND sparkly I loved them!
