The last wedding of the season, and it was one to remember! You may recognize Rubina & Garo from their engagement photos last fall. Their wedding was a jam-packed day full of family, friends, dancing, eating, and Armenian wedding traditions. It was mayhem, in the best possible sense of the word… I love photographing weddings that have so many cultural elements!
Mark Gardner joined me once again … I was glad he was there, as there was simply so much going on it would have been difficult impossible for just one shooter to capture it all. Thanks Mark!
First Floor Films was also there doing the video, and Beautiful Blooms took care of the *stunning* florals. What a fantastic team to work with!
As usual, we started out as Rubina & Garo were getting ready.
An Armenian tradition… Garo had to pay to get Rubina out of the building. Mark snagged this shot below…
Oh, and did I mention it was cold enough to make a penguin beg for mercy? It was… but this couple went out for photos anyway. (Kudos, guys.)
And then back to the Loews Hotel for the reception. The 33rd floor is a great place to hold the cocktail hour.
When their band was unable to make it, R&G’s friends stepped in last minute and did a marvelous job.
Once again, Rubina & Garo… thanks for including us in your wonderful day!
