The Shore Club NJ Wedding | Nicole & Alex

While I’m no stranger to photographing in Spring Lake, Nicole and Alex’s wedding was my first The Shore Club NJ wedding- a great spot for a December winter wedding. Nicole and Alex came to me by way Nicole’s sisters’s friend who is one of my wonderful brides who was also married at the Jersey shore (The Gables Inn Wedding). If you’ve been around my blog long enough, you know that I know that awesome people know other awesome people, therefore, I knew Nicole and Alex had to be awesome… and I was right! I did have a chance to work with Nicole and Alex earlier this year during their Tinicum Park mini engagement session which you can check out by clicking here.

When you’re a kid, the passage of time is very different on a wedding day than it is for an adult… ringbearer sits on couch and chills out during NJ bride prep

I had a chance to chat with Nicole’s grandfather, who is over 90, prior to the ceremony. I love speaking with older generations as I am truly and old soul, especially these days when everyone is bombarded with youth from social media. Listen to your elders… they know a thing or two about life. The Shore Club NJ wedding ceremony grandfather talking to grandkids

There are some wedding trends that have been around as long as I can remember. I do sometimes wonder if this “Shout” trend will die out. What we need are the younger generations to designate that person in their family that is going to be this guy when “Shout” comes on at a wedding for decades to come. Keep this one going…The Shore Club Spring Lake NJ wedding reception The Shore Club Spring Lake NJ wedding reception wedding guest on the floor dancing to the song 'shout'The Shore Club Spring Lake NJ wedding reception wedding guest on the floor dancing to the song 'shout'  The Shore Club Spring Lake NJ wedding reception

The Shore Club put some serious effort into their holiday decorations and I wanted to work them in…The Shore Club Spring Lake NJ winter wedding portrait of couple with Christmas ornamentsA great day with Nicole, Alex, their friends and family at their The Shore Club NJ wedding in Spring Lake, New Jersey.
