What a great time we had traveling to our state's capitol to partake in Sarah and Stephen's special day! They say opposites attract... Jeff and I are perfect examples of that, but Sarah and Stephen are too. He is shy and quiet, she is outgoing and not as quiet... a fact that was stated many times through out the day by friends and family :) They met each other while attending SUNY Geneseo and love blossomed as they gained their education. We started out at the lovely Renaissance Hotel photographing both sides of the wedding party. The wedding was down the street at the most gorgeous Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception....such a beautiful church! We then went to the Empire State Plaza and had some fun with a most wonderful wedding party, getting some great images incorporating some cool architecture and a fun "I Love NY" sign. Such a great time, and all before we even started the reception! 90 State Events is a spectacular place for a reception! The history of the building goes back to being a home for Martin Van Buren (once Governor of NYS) before it became the home to the National Savings bank for 125 years and then later converted to the awesome event space it is now. You can't beat the beauty of this historic space! The food was great, the party was fun, but most of all, you could tell that Sarah and Stephen were well loved and loved each other. Some of their friends are from our local area as well as their florist (Simply Em Productions) who went to school with them and was happy to travel to Albany to not only deliver the stunning flower arrangements, but to of course, attend her friends wedding. We hope you enjoy scrolling through their most beautiful day. We enjoyed our time with them very much! Be sure to leave the couple some love in the comments below.
When the music moves ya....
Just beautiful flowers by Simply Em Productions in Lockport.
This was her mom's veil. Love it when heirlooms are incorporated into the day.
Such a great wedding party to work with!
This was the finale to a great rendition of Build Me Up Buttercup. I told you they were fun :)
They did a sweet ballroom dance.... well done you two!
