Capturing Classic, Romantic Love Stories

Down the Jersey Shore + Beyond

Mark + Liz!

Liz first spotted Mark from across the hall from where she was student teaching, and the teacher she was paired up with (her maid of honor) always joked that she would be the one to give the speech at their wedding one day!  Its funny how things happen, because 8 years later, here we are on Liz and Marks wedding day!  It was an absolutely perfect Spring day with an even more perfect bride and groom!  Ryan and I both started at each of their parents houses and the headed to St. Charles Borromeo Church where Liz and Mark said their I Do’s!  We then took advantage of the gorgeous weather and headed to Knight Park in Collingswood for photos and then partied the night away with DJ Sam Catrambone (highly recommended!) at the Collingswood Grand Ballroom!! :)  I hope you enjoy the sneak peek of their day!!
