A ROMANTIC SPRING DAY IN OHIO WITH THE SWEETEST COUPLE, A ROSE PETAL TOSS, AND A CATHOLIC CHURCH TURNED EVENT SPACE
There are so many things I want to say about Mallory and Robby’s Cincinnati Catholic Wedding. But, I would have to write a whole novel to share all of it, so I will *try* to only put in the highlights.
Mallory started off the day getting ready with her girls and slipped into her dress from Lace Bridal Couture. The women prayed over her, giving her strength for the day and a heart ready to receive the Lord and her husband.
Robby got ready with a bit of help from his mom, who pinned on his boutonniere.
After some detail photos of Holy Cross Immaculata Parish, with it’s stunning pillars, gorgeous stained glass, and communion railing, it was finally time for Robby to meet his bride at the altar.
It really brings me so much joy to be able to work with people like Mallory & Robby. Seeing two incredibly sweet people come together as one through Christ is, simply put, a foretaste of heaven.
Spring trees with flowers on them are *the best* outdoor backdrop for couples portraits, here’s proof.
The best indoor backdrop, though, is a beautiful old building with stained glass and historic paintings like The Bell Event Centre, an old Catholic Church that was turned into a venue (sad, but gorgeous?)
After Robby and Mallory had a viewing of their reception space, they joined the cocktail hour. Robby’s grandfather was the lead of one of the best outdoor cocktail hour bands you’ve ever seen.
Just some more highlights so I don’t, in fact, write a novel:
- A first dance
- Emotional speeches
- And an iconic mother-son dance.
Finally, more photos at The Bell of these two dancing the night away under gorgeous frescos while guests ate up cake and cannolis and celebrated them.
To end the night, these two had a private last dance where they spun and swayed and hugged each other so tight. Just relaxing and soaking up all the events of their Cincinnati Catholic Wedding. Then, they ran through some sparklers for a grand exit to one of the most fabulous weddings I’ve ever had the privilege of photographing.
CONGRATULATIONS, IT WAS A JOY TO CELEBRATE YOU!
