We launched Beloved Weddings in 2020 as a solution to couples still wanting to get married during a pandemic without quality suffering. When Caitlin reached out, I was so excited because this would truly be a beloved and intimate wedding. Caitlin and David got married at the beautiful and eclectic Gramercy Mansion in the presence of family. We spent time in the gardens and around property getting beautiful moments of their love prior to the ceremony.

Shortly after, these two said I Do in the atrium. We were there to take family photos and document a once in a life time event, and for these two, it was evident that they are for each other. Caitlin and David, thanks for trusting me and allowing me to be part of such a wonderful wedding. We wish you all the best!

Oh gosh, this wedding I’m so excited to share, and I think it’s because I got to check off a bucket list wedding item: Photograph a Rainy Ceremony OUTDOOR, and our couple was the dream couple to do this with!

Sara and Joey had an incredible wedding day, wet, yes, but honestly, it was some of the prettiest lighting we’ve had all year with overcast skies but then moments of soft light. They get an award for trusting us with difficult weather and allowing us to call needed audibles day of!

There were so many cool details of this wedding that I have to mention. From an intimate first look, to a really special gift from Sara to Joey. He has a favorite actor and Sara got a recording from the actor to Joey on his wedding day. It was so cool, so special and Joey was definitely moved by it. I’ll never forget that Sara said that she wanted to get married outside. There was a 50% chance of rain, so we took all 30 of our umbrellas out to ceremony, set a bunch, gave some to family, and went full mode into what we were pretty sure would become a rainy ceremony. Sure enough, as soon as Sara walked down the aisle, the skies clouded over and the rain started to come. I’ve never interrupted a ceremony before but I was not about to allow my bride to be drenched, covered, soaked. The ceremony continued with umbrellas in hand by all and smiles too. I do’s were said and all cheered as our couple recessed out as husband and wife!
