Bride and her Mother at Salvatore's Garden Place Hotel

Bride and her Mother at Salvatore's Garden Place Hotel

Nikki and Adam had their wedding ceremony and reception at the Avanti Mansion. This is a great location because they can host everything there and guests do not need to leave. They had the ceremony out on one of the courtyards and then guests filtered inside for the reception. Then the guests have access to the outdoor patio all night!

Nikki and her bridesmaids were getting ready at Salvatore's Garden Place Hotel. They had a huge suite! Mother of the bride was dressed and came in to check on all of the girls. She was going to be helping the bride into her dress. But before that, mom had a little gift for her daughter. We had the bride have a seat near one of the windows and open up the card from her mother. She immediately started to cry. Then mother of the bride went right in to comfort her and she started to cry.

This was a no brainer black and white image for Neal. Emotional photos scream black and white. We loved how Nikki is really trying to hold back her tears trying to read the letter from her mother. Mom is wiping tears off her face. The moment right after this was both of them saying,"Stop crying. We are ruining our makeup." That was a great way to get some laughs.We loved this moment with the bride and her mother.
