Annie and Steve had a beautiful wedding in Asbury Park with so many personal details that made it extra special.  Steve designed the menus, programs, and escort cards.  Steve and Annie’s father constructed their wedding arbor.  All of the reception details were DIY as well.  Annie looked absolutely stunning in her mother’s wedding dress that had been altered for her.  In addition to wearing her mothers dress, she also wore Steve’s great grandmother’s engagement ring, and another piece of jewelry from each grandmother – a necklace and a ring.  Steve wore Annie’s grandfather’s cufflinks.  I love all the sentimental mementos!

The gorgeous Annie!  Makeup and hair by Spa Bella.

Annie’s mother’s dress looked absolutely perfect on her.  It looked brand new!

The ceremony was originally supposed to take place by the water but unfortunately Hurricane Sandy had other plans for them.  Instead the ceremony took place in a theater, so these programs Steve designed were perfect.

Our first spot for portraits was at the restaurant where they had their first date – so sweet.

A quick stop at the beach for a few more portraits.   Loved all the colors they choose for their bridal party! Flowers by Kirk Florist.

I love these simple coke bottle centerpieces! So sweet.

Proud dad! 🙂

Annie’s grandmother is in her 90’s but still made it on the dance floor! Love this!!
