You just gotta love these two. And so I am sure you need more. Check out their wine country wedding and their sonoma wedding portraits and reception.

Kicking off the after party with sparklers to send the bride and groom off from the wedding reception, followed by a lovely walk down main street before Cassie went back to her hotel room to change into a party frock.

And a taste of what it felt like in the club. Boating decor abounded.

Sliders=perfect midnight snack.

Fun and games and dancing and more dancing.

And we popped out for a quick photo under the moonlight to end the evening.

I can’t imagine a more perfect celebration weekend for Cassie and Dan. Sunday concluded the festivities with a brunch; we were lucky enough to attend as guests and really enjoyed spending more time with their families and friends- such a fantastic crew of people.

So if you want to see the whole suite of photos together. Check out their Fenway Park e-session, their Chappy Rehearsal Dinner, their Old Whaling Church ceremony, their Daniel Fisher House reception and their destination wedding slideshow.

If you want more from this amazing wedding weekend, check out their destination wedding slideshow and the stories on the blog (1 and 2). And don’t miss out on their Fenway Park engagement session.

Still to come, the after party.

Our last post was all about the beauty leading up to and through their wine cave ceremony. And now we share sunset portraits and one fabulously good party.

First up the bridal party, with signature white parasols, courtesy of Viansa.

And then some alone time enjoying the magnificent valley scenery as the sun was beginning to set. Warm light made their skin glow. Well, that, and the happy day.

So many beautiful spots to shoot. We honestly could have photographed here all day.

But we had a party to attend. And the guests were waiting.

Grand entrance through the bridesmaid and groomsmen gauntlet. Love that the girls took the guys sunglasses and handed off their bouqets to the gents.

Yup.

First dance.

Finished off with a dip.

Kiss, please!

Father-daughter dance.

Fooling around in the photo booth.

Check out this super fun ring shot. They had the letters on their dessert bar table. Picked up the little chairs which were holding the escort cards, and then placed the rings on each chair. Love the connection to their day.

All around good times and simply stunning wedding. Congrats to Soo Jin and Roger and thanks to all those who made it a spectucular wedding!

They both got ready at a private home with Roger and the boys taking over the main house, and Soo Jin and the ladies enjoying the guest house by the pool. Not a bad way to enjoy a destination wedding really.

Her dress and the view from her pad.

Roger primping and prepping.

The boys downed a shot of something- not sure what- but here’s how it went down. Hmmm….

Meanwhile, Soo Jin was getting gussied up. Finishing touches on her dress.

They decided to do a first look before their ceremony so that they could take portraits without time constraints at Viansa. Roger was peeking before he was supposed to. Who can blame him?

He made up for it with kisses.

And then the ceremony began. It took place in the wine caves, lit by candles. Beautiful and romantic!

Clearly a happy couple! And more to come from sunset portraits and the reception fun.

Picking up where I left off, a few portraits outside the Greek Orthodox Church where they held their ceremony. So sweet.

And with their super cool vintage car.

Then we all headed up to the Lake View Pavillion in Foxboro, where they were hosting their reception. What an absolutely beautiful site. Situated amongst the trees and overlooking a lake. So of course we wanted a few more with Anna and Johnny.

The reception started and was absolutely full of joy. One of my favorite moments…. The best man was just about to make his toast. He had set his glass down so he could hold his notes and told the ringbearer to keep an eye on it for him. The ringbearer took his duty very seriously.

This was the toast in which I learned that our Paisano groom wasn’t Italian. I mean, how was I to know? He owned a pizza restaurant at one point. Oh the disillusionment.

Dancing with her dad.

Such a fun celebratory tradition, the Greeks throw money at the bride and groom, as well as during the parent dances. Here Anna’s twin sister showers Anna and her dad.

Family hug to follow. Love!

And even though Johnny’s not Greek, he gets the full treatment. I think his mom likes it.

Lots more dancing!

Getting down with his sister.

Anna’s sister dances for her.

As does her dad.

Yup. I am enamored with this little guy. He really is just too cute.

We closed the evening with a little relaxation in the lounge.

Did I mention Tami’s beautiful red wedding dress?

A kiss while dancing, witnessed by more than one camera.

And since these two are tango dancers, they treated their guests to a show.

Loving our bride’s hair accessory- feathers and pearls.

Enjoying toasts.

This little munchkin was enjoying the gardens, and also happens to be one of our connections to Tami and Gio. Or more accurately her parents are. We photographed their Bernardus Lodge wedding, which Tami planned. So fun to see them and their growing family at Tami’s celebration.

A sweet bit of romance from their invitation for this ring shot.

Want more from Tami and Gio’s colorful California wedding? Check out their slideshow and sneak peek. Or check out Tami’s thoughts on her blog.

I started with the two of them as they got ready at the club.

Tami wasn’t particularly worried about western traditions. She chose a chic birdcage veil and a stunning red dance dress for her wedding look.

Our beautiful bride walking down the aisle.

Gio couldn’t be more smitten.

Or more excited to be officially married to Tami.

Sweet smiles leaving the ceremony in the garden.

During cocktail hour, I had the chance to capture a few portraits. Tami definitely planned another beautiful event. I loved her personal touches, like this sign.

We were all treated to some great music during the portraits and cocktail reception.

One of the many sweet little ones at the wedding. She is captivated by the flowers in the garden.

Tami and Gio were able to enjoy a few moments alone.

More to follow soon from Tami and Gio’s spring wedding in Marin County.

Our first stop for the day was the Providence Biltmore Hotel where Anna was getting ready. Anna had a suite with great views of the city. A fun way to incorporate that and her very sassy, stylish shoes.

She had the help of all her bridesmaids as she slipped into her wedding dress.

Putting on her veil.

A very sweet moment with her mom.

Walking down the hotel’s very grand staircase, Cinderella.

Meanwhile, Dave had made his way to the church and was with our dashing groom.

When we arrived at the church, Anna stayed in the limo with her dad, waiting for her entrance. She couldn’t help peeking back to see what everyone was doing as the bridesmaids lined up.

This Greek Orthodox church has all of the beautiful decorations I typically attribute to orthodox churches, lots of golds and reds. But they also have gorgeous blue stained glass windows which change the tone of the light in the space.

What a cutie, totally surrounded by pink!

So many fun traditions in a Greek wedding. As Anna and Johnny walk around with the priest, their bridal party and guests threw rice on them.

Happily greeting their guests during the receiving line.

There’s never enough rice throwing!

Definitely more to follow soon, so check back for the scoop of Anna and Johnny’s wedding.

Tutera is not only an amazing planner, he’s a fabulous designer. He created a beautiful Mexican inspired wedding for Christina, whose Riviera Maya destination wedding had to be canceled. His first stop was to check on the decor at the hotel where the reception would be. His team was already doing a great job; he added a few more touches to the look.

Next he visited the bride who was in the process of getting her hair and make-up done.

Never a private moment on a TV show.

This is when he reminded Christina of the 3 dresses she tried on. He is about to tell her which one he chose for her. (This also happens to be one of my fave moments each episode of the show. I can’t help loving that they don’t know which gown he chose. The suspense is super fun. And while most women wouldn’t want someone else to chose this most important of all dresses, I actually would have loved it. I had such a hard time figuring out what to get.)

Before and during the ceremony, there is tons going on both behind the camera and in front of the camera. These portraits show how David is working to make sure that everything goes off without a hitch. Before the ceremony he is checking to see everything is in place. As guests arrive, he greets them and helps them get where they need to be. During the ceremony, he is watching here, there and everywhere.

Being on a public Staten Island beach with lots of cameras, the wedding was sure to draw a crowd.

Still, the crew was pretty inconspicous during the ceremony. One team all the way back and two teams on the side at the front. No guests’ views were interrupted. As photographers, we pride ourselves on putting the wedding first. After all that’s why we are all there. So it is really nice that Tutera’s team also has this in their mind, even when their work is for TV.

After the ceremony, whether for TV or not, David brings his couples into the reception hall before all of the other guests, so that they can actually take a moment to enjoy the space he has created for them. So they can check out the details they have thought about and planned with him. Christina and Ed are clearly enamored with their colorful chocolate cake.

Their first dance in the dreamy tropical space.

One question we get about the show and working with David is: Is he really that nice? The answer is absolutely 100% yes. He is a truly down-to-earth, caring gentleman AND he likes to have a good time. He doesn’t dance at every wedding but when appropriate, he will enjoy the party with the couple and their guests. Enjoying a moment with the bride.

Dancing with a bridesmaid.

Clearly he felt a connection with this group and they with him. They even invited him into their group hug.

The folks who make it a televsion show. Yup, that’s a lot of paparazzi.

And finally, David and David.

What a great day to be a part of! We are so thankful to David Tutera and his team for asking us to photograph this My Fair Wedding episode.
