Erin & Chris - Wedding Highlights

Thursday, June 17th, 2010

“I will always be Daddy’s Little Girl” - that’s what was embroidered on the personalized hanky Erin gave her father before her wedding, and if it wasn’t so nice, they both could have used it at that moment. This was after Chris already made Erin tear up by sending her a gift while she was getting ready - diamond earrings that she always wanted. Way to go Chris!

So, that’s how the day started. Pretty good so far. Then Chris does it again (guys take note). When Erin starts to get a little misty-eyed during the vows, he has tissues ready so she can wipe away those tears.  I think that actually made her tear up a little more - all happy tears though. Anyway, after the ceremony, the bridal party headed to the Rose Garden at Central Park for some photos, then hopped into a Jaguar limousine to make their way to the party at Mallozzi’s.

During their first dance, Erin & Chris provided a little entertainment for the crowd - some spinning, some dipping and even some sliding around the dance floor. That got the party started and Erin made sure she kept going, dancing all night and at times pulling people up on the dance floor to have some fun. There was an 85 year old aunt leading the electric slide, and even Erin’s cousins, who claim they don’t dance, got up and busted a move or two. The night ended with a big group hug (once they got the hang of it) and a photo of the bride and groom with all their family and friends.  It was a great night and we were so happy to be a part of it.

Maegan & Aaron - Wedding Highlights

Saturday, June 5th, 2010

She knew this was the place she wanted to get married at, even before she was engaged.  It was a beautiful Spring day at the Mohawk River Country Club and Maegan planned her whole day there - from getting ready in the bridal suite, to an outdoor ceremony by the gazebo, to a perfectly pink reception. 

As Aaron waited with his groomsmen, which included his son Shawn, Maegan walked down the aisle with two men - her father and her and Aaron’s little man, Mason.  As Maegan’s father placed her hand in Aaron’s, he instructed him to “Take care of my baby”.  Aaron promised he would.

The ceremony was short and sweet which left plenty of time for pictures and mingling with guests at the cocktail hour, which is definitely a place you want to be at here because the food is amazing.  The reception followed and Maegan and Aaron entered the room and shared their first dance as husband and wife.  Their son Mason soon joined mom and dad on the dance floor as they all started their new life together.

Maegan & Aaron - thanks for letting us be a part of your day, and as Mason would say, “Mwahhhh!”  :)
