Eileen and I actually met two years ago at a mutual friends bachelorette party in Savannah, GA. We had just completed my website redesign and I was excited to show it off to the girls. Eileen asked for a card and kept it tucked away in her desk for years, until she got engaged and began her own wedding planning. Suffice it to say my images struck a chord with her and she didn’t have to look anywhere else for a photographer!
I love it when a bride minds some tradition and has blue in her ensemble. Eileen strutted down the path in towards James in fabulous blue shoes! Her ensemble also included vintage details such as a party dress, a retro hairstyle complete with pin curls and a stunning headpiece. Erie Park was the perfect city setting for their nuptials and their friends and family. Afterwards, the entire group walked up the street to Reza’s for dinner and dancing. In all, a perfect day!
