What a wonderful day! I met up with Katelyn at her parent’s house where she and her bridesmaids were getting ready. I was greeted by her adorable niece who promptly informed me that she was 3 years old. Adorable. Before we knew it Katelyn was on her way downstairs so her father could see her in her dress for the first time. A few tears later (with make-up still perfect), we headed outside for some photos then made our way to the chapel at Siena College for the ceremony.
After the ceremony, the bridal party photos took place on campus. At one point Katelyn broke out a basketball and she and Anthony posed for some cool action shots. The reception took place at Glen Sanders Mansion where the tables were decked out in black linens with photographs of Katelyn & Anthony’s dogs displaying the table numbers. The party started as the introductions were getting underway with the bridal party - including both sets of parents - giving the guests some competition in the noise making department from out in the hallway. From there it was the place to be that night, and I’m glad we got to be there.
Some things I learned at this wedding:
~ Katelyn loves to laugh - and when she’s with Anthony, she laughs a lot
~ Safety pins can be a bride’s best friend
~ Anthony loves chocolate chip cookies and cupcakes
~ The best man can make half court shots when there is cash up for grabs
~ The dogs aren’t the only… (nevermind - that one stays between me and the guests at the wedding) ![]()
