I’ve got to say, this was a fabulous way to start off the 2015 wedding season! It is always great to get to work with such wonderful, friendly, down to earth, and just plain FUN people! It was such an honor to be a part of another Donohoe wedding! I’ve come to absolutely adore this family!! <3 The day was filled with love, laughter, tears and fluffy beautiful snow! Alexis, Johnny and their bridal party were such troopers out in the snow, which resulted in some beautiful photos! But the real fun didn’t begin until we arrived at Vie and partied all night with the band LA Starz from EBE! They are one of the BEST bands in the industry and we LOVE working with them! They really know how to keep the party going all night!!
Enjoy the sneak peek of the beginning of #TheNewDonohoes happily ever after!! The ladies! Love them! Alexis’s jewelry was to die for! Ah! Johnny’s mom helping him get dressed! Love it! A boy and his dog! <3The perfect saying for this snowy day… Cutest ring bearer and flower girl! Congrats to the Newlyweds!! Such a beautiful bouquet by Carl Alan Floral Designs!! Alexis received some first class service! I absolutely loved shooting at any Cescaphe property, but Vie has to be one of my favorites! Seriously, how beautiful is this room?!

Let the recap of our 5th year of photographing pretty spectacular weddings begin…
You may remember these two and their adorable love story from their engagement session last year! Their wedding day started off at the Headhouse Salon – such a cute and modern salon! Then we headed back to the Loews Hotel in Philadelphia where everyone was getting ready for the day! I was so excited the day before to receive a text from Jessie saying that she hopes that Ryan and I aren’t afraid of heights… I was definitely intrigued and beyond excited when she told me they would be doing their first look on the rooftop of the Loews Hotel! It was so awesomely epic!! We then took a trolly around Philadelphia and ended at the fabulous Vie Ballroom by Cescaphe! It was our first time there, and can’t wait to go back again next year! Such a beautiful venue for your ceremony and reception! We had a wonderful experience with them! I hope you enjoy the sneak peek!! xo Best.Day.Ever! <3 I was absolutely IN LOVE with Jessie’s dress!!! Love Pat’s green bow tie – Gosh, I just love bow ties!!! Jessie did a First Look with her dad on the 33rd Floor of the Loews Hotel… Such a sweet and genuinely emotional experience.. Then to the rooftop to see Pat! Loved his reaction to seeing Jessie for the first time! Every single reason that i LOVE first looks!! The Christmas tree is already set up in LOVE Park! Crazy! Aren’t those flower girl dresses just adorable?! I seriously adore taking photos around the city – never a dull moment! The mosaic on the wall of Vie was to die for! <3 Yay!!! Mr + Mrs Deopp!!! Love love love!!! The rings! Mr Neff and his band! Love that Jessie and Pat changed into matching lime green and purple Crossfit shoes!!Jessie and Pat – wishing you so much love and congratulations!! We love you both so much and hope that you had an absolutely unforgettable day!!
We hope you’re having an awesome time in Punta Cana!! xoxo
