Venetian Wedding Photos by Vanessa Joy Photography

Happy New Year! I’m so excited to share Megan and Vinnie’s Venetian Wedding!  I actually met Megan and Vinnie two years ago when I did their engagement session at the Princeton University campus.  So when the big day finally came, I was so excited for them! Megan and Vinnie’s wedding was inspired by peacock colors and their two big families.  Megan was giddy as can be the morning of.  She wore a gorgeous Pnina Tornai gown and her bridesmaids all wore gowns by Bari Jay.  The flowers were delicately made by Marquis florals by Kim — and what a phenomenal job she did! Friends and family gathered at church to witness these two recite their vows to one another and afterwards we snuck outside for some photos since the church had a gorgeous wall filled with overgrown ivy! The evening finished off at The Venetian where Megan and Vinnie had a room filled with Peacock inspired floral reception details.  The entertainment was a hit thanks to SCE event group and everyone enjoyed a great celebration for these two newlyweds.  Congratulations Megan and Vinnie – it was a JOY being a part of your wedding day! marquis florals, NJpeacock inspired wedding theme

How did you two meet and fall in love?

We meet the first day of freshman year and become very close friends. As time we on we became drawn to each other physical and emotionally and become College Sweethearts on 12/7/2008.
