On June 5th, I photographed Alison and Dan’s Windows on the Water Sea Bright NJ wedding. They had a perfectly sunny and warm day for their June wedding that had a color palette filled with shades of blue which was perfect for their Jersey Shore wedding! Their happy day began at the Wave Resort for Alison and at a nearby Airbnb for Dan. Once these two were ready, we did their first look at the Wave Resort before doing portraits on the Long Branch boardwalk in front of the carousel – we even hopped on for a fun ride! Alison and Dan are so loved as a couple that not only did they have four bridesmaids and four groomsmen, but they also had an additional four honorary bridesmaids and four honorary groomsmen by their side. Their highly personal ceremony was officiated by Alison’s mom’s friend and they read their own vows through tears before ending the ceremony with a lavender toss! Once the reception started, the fun continued with emotional and fun parent dances, Alison and her mother danced to a choreographed “Fireball” together before opening up the dance floor to all their guests! My happy couple and their favorite people partied the night away to their live band, Brian Kirk and the Jirks before ending the evening with a sparkler exit!
Their first date was June of 2015 and they went cliff jumping in a reservoir at Washington Valley Park a few weeks after meeting at the house party. Dan got the idea for this location from his cousin based on the recommendation that it was a great cliff jumping spot and had a rope swing. After dating long distance in college, they both realized they had found the one because they have the most fun when they are together and love spending time with each other. They then lived together during graduate school and there was no going back, that is when they decided they wanted to keep hanging out forever!
Alison and Dan spent two years planning their special day, so their advice for couple’s currently planning is to plan early so you don’t have to stress about things! They were most excited about the cocktail hour, dancing with friends and family and celebrating the official start of their future together!
Alison and Dan plan to take their honeymoon in September, thank you for choosing me to photograph your Windows on the Water Sea Bright NJ wedding!
Every part of our journey through life is sacred and passes by way too quickly. Susan elegantly captures the story of your legacy from the beginning with marriage and throughout motherhood with each special season it brings.
