Melissa & Matt, April 29, 2017, 90 State Events

Melissa and Matt had a beautiful spring wedding day in downtown Albany, NY.  Melissa and her girls got ready at the Hampton Inn Downtown.  After makeup and hair were complete, Melissa got dressed and had a first reveal with her dad in the hotel.  We ventured over to the church, where we met up with Matt and hand delivered a note and gift from his Bride. The couple were married in a Catholic ceremony in front of  around 190 guests.  After family photos, we took the wedding party downtown to the NY State Education Department and NY State Capitol.  The tulips were abundant in the city, and we got some great shots of the couple among the colorful blooms.  We ended at 90 State Events after a great deal of time capturing some shots of the couple in the city of Albany.  Guests enjoyed a beautifully decorated ballroom and danced the night away to DJ Fernando’s chosen hits.  We event snuck the couple down State St. near the end of the night for some gorgeous night photography as well.

Such a fun day we had with the both of you; Melissa and Matt.  You two make a beautiful pair and we wish you all the best!
