Gillian and Adrien at the NY Historical Society... Part Three

Gillian and Adrien making their way into the reception. This is a great venue and an interesting space. The event coordinator Brooke, planned the party to perfection!





Gillian and Adrien used 4 VERY long banquet tables for their guests. Love this idea.



So sparkly.

What a dramatic space!

A bird's eye view of the room...

I love miniature food!

Place cards in the gallery being overseen by these ladies...

There were many lovely historical paintings in the building...we thought this one was fun.

Love this one.

Gillian and Adrien had 4 very funny and heartfelt toasts.

Gillian's dad spoke about how Gillian was always a little shy but now Adrien helps her break out into more adventurous activities, including swimming in shark infested waters... what?!

This is good because?!

Everyone was chatting and enjoying the fabulous meal... I think this is just what Gillian and Adrien envisioned.

Who wouldn't enjoy being a part of this festive evening?!

Sisters sharing a laugh like only sisters can.

and the best man...

Gillian and Adrien planned to have these fun cakes set out on the tables after dinner. The couples married the longest got to cut the cakes.

Gillian is just gorgeous.

Cake time!

The cakes were a major hit. They looked so delicious and smelled great too.

I love me some frosting!

MMM. Red Velvet.

Dancing was in a separate room, so Trish snuck in with them for a few photos before the festivities began. Meanwhile, I am keeping an eye on the cakes.

This is the library, swanky!

The intros...

Trish is getting the view from above...very above!

Awwww....

Party time!

My competition...

Such a fun party, everyone danced their butts off.

Gillian and Adrien were pretty good dancers, they had some nice moves!

The End. Time for the Snappers to head back to their beloved Rhody....

Gillian and Adrien, thank you so much for inviting us to be a part of this wonderful day!

You were not only fantastic to photograph but a real pleasure to get to know. Best of luck in your happily married life!

Friends and Family: Register HERE to see all of the photos when they are ready.

Gillian and Adrien at the New York Historical Society... Part Two

A few delays and a slightly late start... and then finally, the big moment! Adrien and Gillian got married at The Church Of Heavenly Rest.

The long aisle was perfect for Gillian's dramatic entrance.

I love the look at Adrien's face!




I was perched in a funny little window over the altar for this shot.
This is not an angle we usually get, fun!




Adrien's parents looking on.

From my perch over the altar, I ran the length of the church up in the rafters to get this angle. It was a little dark and creepy up there, but worth it for this wide shot.

... and this one too.

Meanwhile, Trish is on the ground capturing the I do's. Her job was harder, it's tough staying in a crouched position with a big heavy lens.

Married!

Mr and Mrs!

A congratulatory hug from the maid of honor and the best man.

Making it extra official. I love this one- what decade are we in?

A little fun with the bridal party... Trish the expert at organizing large groups wrangled them for this photo. Nice!

These next couple of shots really knock my socks off. Trish found this little side chapel while waiting for the ceremony to start. What luck! What a fabulous space. I was so excited when I saw it, it's so special and unique.

Yes!

LOVE.

Lovely details.

Time to bundle up and go to the reception.

Adrien learns about the bustle... such a gentleman.

Let the fun begin!

Coming up next... the reception at the NY Historical Society.
