Kelly and Stephen’s wedding was a gorgeous, love-filled day in New York City.  Throughout the day Kelly never stopped smiling and I could feel the love around every corner. It was so evident that these two were meant to be together. They first met when the Sisters of Life they worked with introduced them and it’s been a storybook romance ever since.

Their wedding day couldn’t have gone any better. The girls got ready at the beautiful New York Palace Hotel before heading to the Church for the ceremony. The weather was perfect, well except for the downpour during the ceremony. Luckily, we were inside the most amazing church for the wedding. St. Ignatius Loyola is a stunning church full of beautiful architecture and lighting. I couldn’t have picked a more amazing place. The Mass was very touching and such a celebration of their marriage.

The reception was held at the Union League Club and it was oh so sweet, literally! They had a delicious dessert bar that was to die for.  Everyone there had so many great things to say about Kelly and Stephen.  They were surrounded by so many friends and family. The love felt for this couple was overwhelming and abundant. I truly feel blessed to have been a part of their big day.

Stephen gave Kelly this necklace for their one year anniversary. The earrings were a wedding gift. He really knows how to make a girl feel special!

 ^ This was a beautiful moment after the ceremony. The Sisters introduced Stephen and Kelly and were all there to celebrate their special day. ^

I’m pretty sure this laughter was right after Kelly’s sister explained their mutual love of Excel. Yes I said EXCEL! They were made for each other <3

This beautiful couple was the last on the dance floor for the “Who’s been married the longest” dance. This is what 58 years of bliss looks like. I asked them later what their secret was. She told me “Never give up. You can always make it work. Just remember why you got married.”

Congratulations to Kelly and Stephen!
