After shooting this couple's engagement photos this past winter I knew the wedding was going to be great. Steph and Rick are so adorable together and I was thrilled to shoot their wedding. The ceremony and reception were both at the Milestone on the River. This charming venue right on the Susquehanna river was where the bride and her bridesmaids got ready - which is where my day started.
Rick had beautiful red roses sent to Steph! How sweet!
After Steph's hair was done it was time for her mom to help put on her dress.
Then came her beautiful veil.
Once Steph was all ready we headed outside for some bridal shots and some pictures of her with all her beautiful bridesmaids.
We headed back inside and got a couple more bridal shots as we were waiting for the main event to begin!
Meanwhile, the guys were headed to the ceremony site. My sister Sarah is my amazing second shooter - she did a fantastic job catching some fun shots of this great group of groomsmen (try saying that 5 times fast!).
It was time for the ceremony to begin! And what a sweet ceremony it was!
I just love these next two shots! What a happy couple!
Next we proceeded to get some group shots of the entire wedding party. What a great looking group!
Then it was time for my favorite part of the day - bride and groom shots! What a stunning couple Steph and Rick make!
While I was getting pictures of the newlyweds Sarah was capturing shots of all the beautiful decorations!
After cocktail hour it was time for the party to begin!! The reception started off with the couple's first dance as Mr. and Mrs. So much love!
Then it was time for toasts. Steph's life-long best friends did a great job of making the bride laugh... and cry.
Next up were the best men!
Last, but certainly not least, were some kind words by Steph's Dad, Mr. Ricci.
After dinner it was time for the Father-Bride and Mother-Groom dances.
What a gorgeous cake!
Things got a little messy after that so I'll just move on to the bouquet toss!
The dance party that ensued looked like a blast!
Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Katsifis! I had a blast shooting your wedding and hope you enjoy the pictures! Best wishes to you both on a long and happy marriage!!
