Lisa & John (& Brianna) Highlights - New Year’s Eve

Saturday, February 12th, 2011

How do you make sure to remember what you did on New Year’s Eve? Get married and ring in the new year with all your family and friends. That’s what Lisa & John did.

Lisa & John made it official at St. Jude’s in Wynantskill, where Lisa married a “Troy Boy”. :) After their vows to each other, John presented Lisa’s daughter, Brianna, with a ring and made a family vow to her (yes, there were tears all around). The tears soon dried and were replaced with smiles and applause as the new Mr. & Mrs. made their way down the aisle and headed to the Century House to celebrate. The cocktail hour featured a drink named after the new couple, the “Bonatini”, and throughout the night there was food wherever you looked - chocolate fountains, a candy bar, a dessert table in addition to the wedding cake, an ice cream bar, and to top it off, after the New Year’s countdown and balloon release, a new table appeared with pizza, wings, sliders and fries.  What a great way to end 2010 and start off the new year!

Diane & Jonathan - Happy New Year!

Saturday, February 6th, 2010

New Year’s Eve - the night of December 31, often celebrated with merrymaking to usher in the new year at midnight (dictionary.com)

Diane & Jonathan did just that.  They were married on New Year’s Eve in a beautiful ceremony in downtown Albany, took photos up the block with sparklers in hand, and rang in the new year to the countdown from a live band with party hats, tiaras, noisemakers and a champagne toast, while surrounded by all their family and friends.  Not to mention the yummy chocolate fountain, the awesome black and white cake followed by a full dessert table, and a crowd that loved to dance (they did the limbo and the worm).  It was a great night and I was honored to be able to document it for such a wonderful couple so obviously in love.

Ceremony: St. Mary’s Church
