Bride's First Look with her Father

Bride's First Look with her Father

Jeff and Jenna had a gorgeous wedding in November of 2018. This couple is dear to us, as Jeff is owner of Toy Brothers Entertainment, so we have worked with him over the years. Jenna's family owns Status Limousine and we work their company all the time. The bride and groom became our friends and we were so honored to be their wedding photographers. They are both huge Disney fans. They flew us to Disney World to photograph their engagement session. It was amazing! We did photos in the Magic Kingdom and were the last people to leave the park.

For the wedding day, Jenna got ready at the Avant Building in downtown Buffalo. Jenna is a dancer, so posing for her is a no brainer. She had such a contagious smile and laugh. After getting into her stunning gown, we set up a first look with her father. The bride was extremely close to her father. We had the father of the bride wait out in the hallway and positioned the bride and mother of the bride. We wanted mom to be able to see everything as well! We had dad count to 10 and come into the room. There were instant tears from everyone; bride, mother of the bride, father of the bride, bridesmaids, and even us! Jenna's father embraced his daughter so tight. There was so much emotion. We love mom's reaction in the back trying to fight back the tears. Dad has such a happy grin also trying not to cry. This was such a great first look with dad! Everyone let their guard down.

The bride and groom had their wedding ceremony at Trinity Church in Buffalo. After the ceremony, we stopped at the Curtis Hotel for portraits with just the couple. We then went to Niagara Square and City Hall for photos with the wedding party! It was a windy and cold day, but everyone toughed it out and we got amazing photos. The reception was at Statler City in Buffalo. This is another one of our favorite reception venues. They had the Golden Ballroom and it looked amazing! We had to take advantage and do photos inside of the room as well!
