A Fall Wedding at Riverside Receptions: Kelsey & Nick

post filed in:

Wedding

This past Saturday, magic unfolded at St. Peter Catholic Church as Kelsey & Nick pledged their forever in a ceremony, witnessed by their nearest and dearest. The celebration continued at Riverside Receptions with a live band and lively celebration afterward— utterly flawless from start to finish.

Reflecting on their day, three moments stood out as favorites from their wedding day…

#3. The Bridal Party Champagne Pop after dark was an epic feat of timing and joy. Unsure of the outcome, we were rewarded with the perfect Champagne “pop” – the bubbly moment captured in photos was nothing short of spectacular.

#2. The couple’s choreographed first dance was a dance of dreams. Every spin, lift, and dip spoke volumes of their love and commitment, leaving guests in awe of their practiced grace.

#1. But the most touching was their exchange of private vows post-first look. Witnessing and capturing such genuine, raw emotion between Kelsey & Nick was a privilege—the most profound way to begin a lifelong journey together.

    To Kelsey & Nick, thank you for the honor of capturing these unforgettable moments. May your sneak peek bring joy as you relive your special day. : )
