A Fun Wedding at Flanders Hotel in Ocean City, NJ | Caitlin & Andrew

by TamiandRyan | Sep 12, 2017 | Jersey Shore Weddings, Married

The day began at The Flanders Hotel in Ocean City. It is the most perfect, breezy summer day. There are seagulls in the sky, a car show happening on the boardwalk, and a joyous, happy calm in the air! Caitlin is in the makeup chair getting pampered by Taffeta Design, while she is surrounded by the women who mean the most to her! Meanwhile, Andrew is at his parents condo, hanging out with his best guy friends waiting for the festivities to begin.

This ninth day of September could not have been a more ideal day for Caitlin and Andrew to get married at St. Augustine Church in Ocean City. They had a beautiful Catholic ceremony and tears were definitely shed. The moment Caitlin & Andrew said their I Do’s, you could feel that the celebration was just beginning.

We ventured to the beach at 14th Street Pier in Ocean City. While capturing their bridal party, a butterfly decided to join in, and we were able to capture probably one of my favorite ring shots ever. The butterfly reminded Caitlin of her grandfather, and made her feel that he was there with them on this happy day!

The boardwalk was full of fun, families and a car show, but that didn’t stop us from capturing some fun photos of this bride and groom! They rode the swings, the carousel and Andrew, although scared of heights, braved the ferris wheel for his new wife!

The remainder of the night consisted of so much love as all of their friends and family danced the night away with them!

A Beautiful Summer Wedding at Atlantic City Country Club | Alison & Jim

by TamiandRyan | Jun 27, 2017 | Atlantic City Country Club, Jersey Shore Weddings, Married

The island of Brigantine, right outside of Atlantic City, means the world to Alison and Jim. Their relationship started to blossom while spending summer nights at Alisons family’s beach house there. Jim popped “the question” there. And on June 17th, 2017, they said their I Do’s and officially became husband and wife at St. Thomas Church in Brigantine. The day that Jim proposed to Alison, he said “You make me so happy, I want to be this happy forever.” Well, forever began on this day.

The day began as we arrived at the Atlantic City Country Club for getting ready photos. I was greeted by the ever so sweet Bridal Attendant Ana! When it came to taking care of Alison and Jim throughout the day, she was absolutely amazing!

Alison and Jim decided to have a quick first look on 6th Street, where they normally go to the beach. Jim’s reaction to seeing Alison was priceless! And who could blame him? She was stunning!

Their ceremony was at St. Thomas Roman Catholic Church, only two streets away. Father Michael Davis made their ceremony so personal to them. He even got their parents involved – both of which have been married for 33 years!

After they said their I Do’s, we hopped onto the AC Jitney and had so much time for some amazing photos around the Atlantic City County Club. The golf course is so beautiful and you can see Atlantic City so clearly when the sky was blue and the sun was shining! It was the perfect place to celebrate such a special day with all of their family & Friends!
