East Manor Wedding Photos | Carol + Tony

I don’t believe there’s a better way to ring in the new year other than professing your love and declaring your “I DO’s” in front of all your close family and friends. And I had the pleasure of capturing this very moment.

The celebration of Carol and Tony’s wedding was a great way to begin the 2011 wedding season. With a snowstorm in NYC every week since Christmas, this winter wedding was snow-packed and well below zero degrees. The bridal party donned on their coat and boots and braced themselves for the coldest day of the year. But nothing in the world would have affected anything set to happen on this magical day. All the heart-warming love and wishes amongst the group made their photo shoot fun and enjoyable.

Over the past few months, I’ve had chance to work closely with Carol and Tony during their engagement and bridal session. It seems like it was just yesterday when we started making plans for their big day. It was really enjoyable to work with Carol and Tony. With two very different personalities, they had very unique styles which made them fun to work with. But they do say opposites attract for a reason, and that was very evident when shooting pictures of them together. Their pictures really portray their strong connection to each other.

Carol and Tony expressed their love for each other in front of over 400 guests at East Manor in Queens, NY. Carol looked
absolutely stunning on her special day. Her wedding dress – the Lia, by Augusta Jones, had hand-cut flowers cascading along the shoulder strap and down the back, which complemented her beautifully. Tony looked absolutely speechless and in love as he waited for her in front of the altar. It was a beautiful moment that will mark the beginning of their lives together forever.

Carol and Tony, congratulations again and welcome home from Hawaii!
