Yelena and Brad were married in the most beautiful, intimate, wedding at the Aspen Wye River Conference Center.  The weather was amazingly perfect on that fall afternoon, and excitement was in the air.  After Yelena made her way half-way down the aisle, Brad came down to meet her and walked with her the rest of the way.  They had been waiting for this day, though who could have predicted that choosing a seat on an airplane could have lead to this moment.  They were announced husband and wife and walked back down the aisle looking more excited than I even thought possible.

Yelena never disappoints with her selection of heels, and these sparkly Benjamin Adams were perfect for the day!

Aspen Wye River Conference Center has never looked so romantic with all the lanterns and personal touches.  And Elizabeth Bailey was on hand to ensure that everything looked amazing and the day ran flawlessly.

Romance of Flowers did an absolutely beautiful job on all the florals for Brad and Yelena’s wedding.

Such a beautiful, intimate wedding.

So happy!

How cute are they?

These two…so happy.

Absolutely love this image of Brad and Yelena, one of my favorites!

Love this too!

Romance of Flowers outdid themselves with the stunning and elegant dinner reception.  And a HUGE thank you to Peter for coming along and for these next two images–I absolutely could not have done it without you!

Eric Nicolas Band from New York was brought in, and rocked the house all night long.

The forecast.  Let’s talk about it.  Because it was slated to be a seventy percent chance of rain.  ALL DAY.  My little heart went racing, but when Jess and I talked and she rearranged the timeline THE DAY BEFORE to get ready earlier, just in case, then it didn’t matter what weather came our way.  And come rain, shine, or forty-five degree weather, the day was going to be amazing no matter what.  It was indeed the most chilly day in October and as the guys hung out watching football the girls sought out more champagne to continue the celebrations at The Oaks Waterfront Inn.  And although it was chilly out it never did rain, and as she walked down that aisle, it felt overwhelmingly warm, surrounded by all their friends and loved ones.

Jess’s lace Marisa wedding gown was so beautiful.

Loving her navy blue Stuart Weitzman heels!

Rob and Jess decided on a first look, and it was so sweet seeing them with each other.  Love when couples opt to see each other before hand–especially if rain is in the forecast.

Definitely my favorite from the day!

Oh Jess, you are GORGEOUS!

 

You’ve lost that lovin’ feeling.  Top Gun, obvi.

The Doug Segree Band from Annapolis kept the dancing and the party going long into the evening!

She had planned the most beautiful day, not forgetting even the smallest of details, and not even a little sprinkle on this day was going to change it.  After she made her way down the long staircase, the door opened and she walked out onto the patio where Bill was waiting for her.  She hadn’t even made her way to him yet, but she couldn’t contain her tears, she was overwhelmed with happiness.  And although the sky opened up and decided to bless them with a little extra luck on their wedding day, the day was filled with overwhelming love, emotion and laughter.

Amy’s bouquet from Little House of Flowers was simply breathtaking.  Such the perfect fall bouquet!

Prada heels for her wedding day?  Yes, please.

Amy works in NYC in the fashion industry, so I wasn’t surprised that every last detail of their romantic, classic, vintage wedding was planned out beautifully.

Love this amazing moment that Amy and Bill shared during their first look.  It’s these moments why I love doing first looks; so special and intimate.  It also allowed us ample time for photographs, even with the rain showers!

Bill is lookin’ sharp!

Love this one.

You two are so adorable together!

That’s one good looking bridal party.

Despite the brief rain shower, the Tidewater Inn was set up so beautifully for a fall wedding. Many thanks to Melanie at the Tidewater Inn for always making the day run smoothly no matter what the circumstance!

The reception was set up beautifully with long purple tables, and lace runners.  So, so pretty!

Amy’s dad gave the most heartwarming speech that had everyone in tears.

And after dinner and dancing, they unveiled the most amazing surprise yet: an ice cream sundae bar, and CUPCAKES GALORE.  No, I did no have one.  Who am I kidding, yes, I had one.
