emma and matt’s bear brook valley fall nj wedding was one of those picture perfect fall days. it was the first wedding of the fall season to actually have fall weather! i met up with emma and matt last year for their engagement session. you can check that out here: nj engagement session. emma and matt originally started dating in high school, however matt’s mom put the kibosh on their relationship since emma was a freshmen when matt was a senior. now that i’m a mom, i can totally respect that. it all worked out anyway because years later they started dating and here i am blogging their beautiful bear brook valley fall nj wedding…
the guys got ready in bear brook valley’s woodford lounge…
always seems to be time for fun and games during the groom preps…
kisses.
more fun and games…
during emma and matt’e engagement session, my daughter who was 2 years old at the time, came running out to meet us. she was super into matt so much so that there are a few pics of him and her in their engagement session gallery, hah. emma was telling me how much my daughter reminded me of her niece. the cutie pie overload is way too much and emma was totally right about her niece being over-the-top cute!
i love how many beautiful necklines i’ve seen on my bride’s wedding gowns this year…
first look with emma’s bridesmaids…
love this moment from emma and matt’s first look…

sometimes the clouds really work with you…
i’ve also seen from fantastic colors for bridesmaid dresses this year!
gotta give her some props for taking this long walk all by herself. she was so chill. super adorbs.
matt watches as emma heads down the aisle…
emma reacts to one of her bridesmaids crying already, hah.
so much laughter and smiles during this bear brook valley fall nj wedding ceremony…

the guests forgot to throw the confetti, hah, so we took a pic with it!
party time! dj bobby lafauci of sce events provided the awesome entertainment. you can check out the last awesome party we worked on together here: grand hotel cape may nj wedding
i noticed a lot of wedding photography is taken from really boring angles. i like to consider the story from a little one’s point-of-view.
hah.
fireworks!

(please note- i did not make their skin this yellow. you may notice i truly prefer normal, healthy skin tones. the yellow cast here is from the dancefloor party lights)
