This elegant spring wedding a week after Easter was such a joyful celebration! Nichole and Daniel are both such kind and wonderful people and I know I say this every time, but it really was such a joy to work with them!

We started the day off with the boys. Daniel and his crew have a lot of fun together and are major Beatles fans so it was only natural for them to wear Beatles t-shirts under their suits. A floor above them, Nichole was getting ready with her girls. After capturing their details, it was time to get her dressed! Once dressed, her father came in for a sweet daddy/daughter first look, and then her bridesmaids filed in for their turn to see her. On our way out of the hotel, Nichole shared a special first look with her grandparents.

Nichole and Daniel were married in a beautiful Nuptial Mass at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church with Daniel’s uncle as their main celebrant. Daniel’s face when the doors opened for Nichole and her dad is so beautiful and one of my favorite images of the day.

Once these two were officially married we headed to their venue, Stock’s Manor, which I actually have been to before (if you’ve been following me for a long while, you might recognize it from Mary Kate & Faris’ wedding). The last time I photographed a wedding here it was the dead of winter so it was so different to photograph here in the spring! There is something special about spring sunshine with blossoming spring trees and the hope of summer in the air and it makes for wonderful photos. There are also the remains of old stone walls on the property which gave me strong Ireland vibes (which I am 1000% all about).

Their reception was filled with good food, laughter, dancing, and lots and lots of delicious cookies courtesy of their very large cookie table.

Nichole and Daniel, thank you for trusting me to capture your wedding! It has been so amazing getting to know you both!

Xoxo,

Mary Kate
