Destination Wedding in Pennsylvania

Well yippie for me! I grew up in Pennsylvania so I love the green trees and puffy clouds!! I was looking forward to it. This wedding was THE most important wedding I’ve shot to date! The bride and groom are my good friends Lizzie and Joel. I wanted to STAY good friends with them… thats why I was SOOO nervous the day of the wedding. Not nervous in a bad way, nervous like I’m about to compete in a swim meet and there’s a good chance I can come in first place!!!
Here is the gorgeous couple. You may notice them from some of my other portfolio work. What can I say, they are stunning….and so was everyone else at the wedding!!! Today I’m posting the Rehearsal/Dinner only. You’ll have to wait for the next post to see the real goods:)

Lets start off with the wedding rehearsal…just a sneak peek of what the next day has in store:)

The rehearsal dinner was hosted by Lizzie’s gymnastics coach from when she was little. They have remained close even after all of these years. It really says a lot about the type of people they are. They really value friendships. I think its a wonderful quality.
Check out the volunteer security staff:)

Here are some of the well thought out details….the apple martini was to die for! Taylor Weldon was the chef for the day and as you can see, the food and presentation were impeccable!

Lisa is the best photographer ever! Our family and friends did not stop raving about what a wonderful person Lisa is. We, of course already knew this, but people kept commenting on her energetic, fun, and sweet personality and her fantastic pictures. Lisa not only captured the details perfectly, but got involved in the excitement of the day and made a lasting impression on our guests. When you spend an entire weekend with a photographer who is documenting one of the biggest moments of your life, it is important for that person to add a positive energy. Lisa does that for everyone she works with. She is truly passionate about her profession and she is extremely talented. Thank you so much for your involvement in our wedding weekend!! Love Lizzie & Joel

First, I have to say that Lisa — you are incredible! You were so gracious, energetic, professional and it was wonderful watching you having so much fun doing what you obviously love. Lisa, these pictures are amazing. You have an remarkable talent for capturing the essence of who you are photographing.

Steve and Sally, you have the most beautiful home and farm I have ever seen. I feel so blessed knowing that our grandchildren will be able to spend time with you in your beautiful home.

Joel and Liz: Sweethearts, I couldn’t have hoped for a more beautiful three days for the two of you. Everything was perfect! Joel honey, I am so proud of you, I love you. You waited knowing what you were looking for and you found her. Liz, I couldn’t have hoped for anyone better for my son., then you. He is so happy, so in love. You are exquisite. I love you Liz.

Love, Mom
