Jessica & Ian

Jessica and Ian are two sweethearts who met at a Camp Cavell summer camp while helping those with disabilities. They are a fairytale kind of couple whose hearts radiate such a loving energy. The vibe of the day was as ethereal and romantic as it was creative. I love that Jessica and Ian were on their own time, they didn’t rush anything and every moment had so much meaning.

Ian placed a blue bracelet that he made on Jessica’s wrist the first year they were together, and he removed it during their wedding ceremony. The bond of love, Ian’s heritage kilt, the bare cake made by the bestie at Gumption Cake Co, the decor of vines that Jessica cut from the woods and created wreaths with…and their personal favorite…Serious Moonlight - A David Bowie cover band for the entertainment. Jessica and Ian had their first dance to As The World Falls Down. If you are a David Bowie fan, and know The Labyrinth movie from the 80’s, you understand the vibe of the day and wish you were there. It was just magical.

If you’re ready to laugh and smile the whole way through a gallery, then this one is for you.

Angel, this beautiful and talented woman has been a dear friend since 19. She is ALWAYS laughing, always has a big beautiful smile and great energy. She and Kurt met at college in Michigan and moved to NY shortly after, I never was able to meet Kurt until the wedding day. One thing is for sure, this was a true match. Kurt smiles and laughs in equals measures with Angel. He also made their wedding cake, yeah.. talk about impressive!

They held their incredibly fun wedding in Angel’s parents backyard. I think I can speak for a lot of people who know the Assi’s, to say they are one incredible family. So many smiles, inappropriate and hilarious jokes combined with high energy..  I couldn’t help but laugh all day with them. 

This partly sunny day was the greatest mix on top of the surprise belly dancer, our trip to the beach for portraits and Angel and Kurt’s first dance/head bang as husband and wife.
