All I can say is wow. Julianne and Jimmy’s wedding day was absolutely perfect down to every single detail. Julianne planned this entire wedding while working full time, being a full time student getting her masters and a full time bride (lol!) She has had her plate full the past year but it was all worth it! Her and Jimmy got married at the beautiful Park Chateau in East Brunswick surrounded by their closest friends and family. I could not have been more honored to document their day.
We started the day at The Chateau Grande Hotel where the girls got their hair and make up done while I was doing bridal details. Once we wrapped up details we got Julianne dressed for her first look with her dad. Her and her dad are close and shared tears during the first look. I started tearing up, it was such a special moment for them! Julianne did another first look with her bridesmaids, sponsors, flower girls and the moms. Julianne is surrounded by such a great group of women, they hyped her up before getting on the party bus to get these two married!
We all got on the party bus and everyone was so excited to get these two married! Once we got to the church in Jersey City I started ceremony details while the wedding party got ready to walk down the aisle. The ceremony started and Jimmy’s eyes were locked on his wife to be, he started shedding tears. Such a sweet moment!! Julianne walked down the aisle with both her parents. They had so many important moments in their ceremony. Once they said their I do’s and walked back down the aisle we started family photos. We took family and some wedding party before heading back on the party bus to continue photos at Park Chateau!
Park Chateau is such a beautiful venue! When we got back, Julianne, Jimmy, their families and wedding party took a quick food break before starting photos. My second and I scouted areas for dreamy portraits. After completing wedding party and family photos we started on bride and groom portraits and ohhhhh my goodness I am obsessed. These two are beyond cute and perfect for one another!!
Julianne and Jimmy decided to keep their vows traditional at their ceremony so we took a moment during portraits for private vows. There were so many tears and laughs, these two love each other so much. After completing their portraits we started reception details. They had so many unique details including disney themed table numbers and seating charts! Their seating chart had “tickets” for rides at disney, how cool and cleaver is that?!
I must say, these two know how to host a party! They had their wedding party partner up and do a contest for the best entrance. This is such a great idea to get the party started. Everyone was so hyped up before Julianne and Jimmy made their grand entrance as husband and wife! After entering they shared a tearful first dance together, Julianne with her dad, Jimmy with his mom and grandmother. There were so many tears throughout the day (happy tears of course!). They have so many great friends and family that love them so much. My coverage ended shortly after the first dance set but these two partied all night.
They tied the knot, shedded a lot of tears, smiled big, danced their feet off and had the best day! Julianne and Jimmy, thank you so much for inviting me to document your special day! Can’t wait to get you all of your images!
