Melissa & Tim, October 5, 2018, Albany Country Club

Melissa & Tim had a gorgeous weathered wedding day at Albany Country Club.  Both Bride and Groom took advantage of getting ready onsite which made it super easy to get prep shots of both.  Melissa and her girls had a champagne toast getting ready while the guys were in the men’s locker room getting into their suits.  The couple had their first look out front of the Country Club.  It was a very sunny afternoon, so we worked in a few shady spots before proceeding to the driving range for that amazing vista from Albany Country Club.  Walking around the property we got some various images and even captured some sun flare for a neat effect.  The couple were married outdoors on the patio in a beautiful ceremony and we took advantage of some setting sun at the tail end of their cocktail hour for some interesting images.  Melissa and Tim thought of so many fun details for their reception and definitely had their guests busy.  On top of the dancing, there were hand rolled cigars, a popcorn station, a cappuccino station, and a photo booth for guests to enjoy.  DJ Mike Reilly had props on hand for guests to use while dancing and it was a lively dance floor all evening.  The couple ended the night with a sparkler grand exit with all of their guests.  It was a truly spectacular day Tim and Melissa and we are so pleased that we were able to share in every moment with you both.  Congrats again!
