I've said this on my blog before but sometimes I have the opportunity to meet a couple before their wedding, other times it's all phone interactions. I had never met Becky and Dan before their wedding, only a few conversations over the phone. I don't remember the conversations other than they were short and they were quiet lol. Needless to say I didn't know what to expect from these two based on the phone conversations. Turns out they were some of the nicest, most inviting, people I could've met. The same goes for their families, everyone involved in this wedding was a delight to be around. As far as Becky and Dan with each other, the couple that had nothing to say to me on phone were full of energy, exuded love for each other and were so easy to work with. It was FREEZING outside and they were completely game for as many outdoor shots as needed for an awesome video.
The wedding itself was at the iconic NYC Bowery Hotel and styled by the amazing Talida Chen of Savour Weddings. I had never worked in the Bowery before and was definitely spoiled with this one. First off I saw John Legend and Chrissy Teigan leave the hotel, that has nothing to do with my workday but I am a giant fan of John so it was cool to see him ;). Secondly, Talida out did herself, stunning floral accents and design on the table scapes with enough candles to completely illuminate the room. I can't put my finger on exactly why but everything about this wedding felt so quintessentially "wintertime in the city." I'll stop yapping and let you all hit play but I can't thank Becky and Dan enough for having me capture their big day and Talida for recommending me to them. Cheers to these two, it was a great way to close out 2017!
