A Natural Setting For A Relaxed Affair

There is a distinct awesomeness about a semi-outdoor event on a comfortably warm Spring evening. The beautiful natural setting that holds Morris Arboretum in place is relaxing, quiet and a vividly colorful backdrop for ceremony and reception photos.

Morris Arboretum weddingSpeaking of photos, I want to say it was a pleasure working with Joy Zaffarano. Considering her very pleasant nature and ability in capturing the images without interfering in the flow of the event or soliciting contrived images are very likely why she was selected to record the event's pictures.

While this is generally true at most weddings, one of the most important aspects of this particular wedding was music. In this case, the father of the bride himself was a musician, as well as several of the guests. One guest played an original classical guitar piece for the procession of the bridal party and bride at the beginning of the ceremony. It was remarkable.

Between the dancing, the photobooth, the cigars and the ever-flowing drinks... this was a loud and very fun party! I am genuinely very happy to have been a part of a celebration filled with so many great friends and family.

Congratulations, Allison and Justin!
