Kara and Matt’s Wedding at Penn State and General Potter Farm

We had an amazing time with Kara and Matt and their families and friends! They were married at the Pasquerilla Spiritual Center on the Penn State Campus. It was a true PSU wedding – check out Kara’s blue shoes and Matt’s blue & white socks in the photos below!  There were quite a few tears shed during the ceremony and a very special surprise appearance by Kara’s grandmother (more tears!). We did a campus tour to all of the important spots – The Nittany Lion Shrine, Hintz Alumni Center, Old Main, and the  Penn State sign by  Beaver Stadium – and got some wonderful images! Then it was off to General Potter Farm for the reception,  with beautiful floral design by Avant Garden, cake from Delectable Delights and music from Nittany Entertainment. We love General Potter Farm receptions for the wonderful, warm ambience. The toasts by the maid of honor and best man were two of the most heartfelt we’ve heard (yes, more tears!). The toasts were followed by  the 1st dance and parent dances (and yes, even more tears!!). Kara and Matt, thanks so much for having us as your photographers – we enjoyed every minute! Congratulations and best wishes ~Vicky and Jim

Katie and Corey – Altoona Wedding Photographer

Filed under Weddings • Written by vjmStudios @ 11:36 pm

We don’t travel to Altoona often, so Katie and Corey’s wedding was a nice change for us, giving us new locations to shoot in and keeping us on our toes! The ceremony was held at the beautifully ornate Sacred Heart Church. Corey was a wonderfully attentive groom, helping Katie up the steps to the altar when her dress got caught (he gets even better later on in the day!). We got some lovely formal photos – it was definitely a picturesque church! Daniel Vaughn Designs did an amazing job with the floral design at the ceremony and the reception. The material that was wrapped around the stems of  Katie’s bouquet was actually part of her mothers wedding dress – what a great idea! After the ceremony we headed to the same location that Katie’s parents had their wedding photos taken, and Corey again impressed us by helping to bustle Katie’s gown – check out the photo and slideshow below :-) We got a few beautiful photos with the sun peeking through the trees, then it was off to the reception at the Altoona Heritage Discovery Center, another new location for us! After some wonderful toasts by Katie’s dad, the best man and the maid of honor, the night was full of family, friends and dancing.  Thanks for letting us be a part of it – congratulations Katie and Corey!

Courtney and Andy’s wedding was a blast! They were married at Grace Lutheran Church in State College, with the reception under the tent at Earlystown Manor. After a beautiful ceremony officiated by Pastor Lynn, – complete with flowers from Woodrings Floral Gardens – we headed over to the Hintz Family Alumni Center for a few shots with the bridal party and the new couple. We even got some great photos of Courtney and Andy with the vintage Crown Victoria they were  riding in – very fun! Then it was off to the reception with cocktail hour music by the Rick Hisch Trio, a delicious cake by Delectable Delights and Nittany Entertainment to keep the dance floor full all night. One of the highlights of the night  was the “Single Ladies” dance by all of the girls in the bridal party – the other was a mini 4th of July celebration, complete with sparklers – check out the slideshow below for some video :-)

Thanks for letting us join in the celebration - Congratulations Courtney and Andy!
