We loved so much about this wedding… As you saw from their engagement session, these two are so adorable together. Their love for each other is palpable, and just plain old precious. When it came to their wedding, the weather was gorgeous, the day planned perfectly, and EVERY one of their guests seemed so insanely happy for them, and simply honored to be there. But MOST of all, we loved watching these two with their parents. the groom’s father had been very sick leading up to the wedding and they weren’t sure he’d be able to attend. That fact seemed to make every moment they had with their parents that much more precious. It was amazing, and all of us were touched by it.

Krista and I started out with the lovely bride to be as she arrived at Beth El Temple. She’s just glowing!

She finished getting ready with her mom and the rest of her bridesmaids.

Love the attention to detail :) Wasn’t her flower headpiece lovely?

Meanwhile, the fabulous Paul McNerny started with the Groom and his Tisch.

There was so much joy in the room!

This shot of the Groom’s dad (left) from Paul is so beautiful. I think I cry every time I see it.

The Beddekken is our FAVORITE part of the Orthodox Jewish wedding!!  It’s just so emotional and beautiful!!

Here’s Paul’s view.

And Krista’s.

And mine.

Man that room was packed! This is from Paul as well.

And now time for the ceremony! Doesn’t the Groom look so proud standing with his parents.

This is mine of the bright in this beautiful light coming down the aisle.

And here’s Paul’s view.

They were so happy!

A chorus of people danced around the happy couple on their way to the Yihud.

And after the excitement subsided we stepped into the chilly courtyard for some portraits!

Here’s my view.

JUST. BEAUTIFUL.

Her flowers were so soft and pretty.

We ducked inside for a minute or two.

Here’s my view.

Love them.

I waited at the end of the line to grab this.

The party was waiting for them when they came in! This one’s from me too.

Paul grabbed this of the guys.

The entertainment was endless!

Look it’s the famous Rahel and Yitzi! ;)  We always love bumping into our couples at their friends’ weddings!!

The Bride’s parents sang for them, so cute :)

Man oh man, what a day!! Thank you both for not holding back one thing on your wedding day, it was such a pleasure to witness.

Everyone check out their facebook album for more, and we’ll see you Friday!
