It’s easy to see what makes this summer-wedding so beautiful: Cape May beaches, beachfront estate, beautiful couple and a reception unlike any other, but the reality of what made this wedding so beautiful was the family! In the midst of a tropical disturbance, flood warnings and a weekend rain storm this family remained relaxed, loving and super excited for whatever the day would bring.

Everyone was happy and unfazed throughout the weekend even with the horrible weather forecast and heavy rains approaching this outdoor reception. Once the tent started going up, the rain started falling and did not stop; In fact, it was one of the largest rainfalls Cape May had seen in many years, 1.37 inches of rain drained directly into the once beautiful green & newly sodded yard. Susan Norcross, of The Styled Bride, really stepped up her game to get the tent drained and ready for this wedding. I have never been more impressed with a planner and their team to pull off such an over the top event with the look of such ease! The rain stopped briefly for Jeannie to walk down the aisle and again while we photographed their portraits on the beach. The clouds were beautiful and warm,  a clear sign that the storm had passed. The wind settled enough even for CinemaCake (Dave Williams) to get epic drone footage during our session. With cocktail hour on the front lawn and just too many stylized details to list here, needless to say, my camera was put to work and captured the beauty that was everywhere. The family portraits on the steps was a trip!!!! It was chaotic and hysterical and a guest even snapped an iPhone pic of me from their point of view (I believe a ladder was definitely involved). The Eddie Bruce Orchestra band and mud covered ground transformed the evening from a tented beach wedding to a mud covered, fun, incredibly unforgettable celebration unlike any we have seen before.
