Liz and Josh’s New Year’s Eve Wedding

vjmStudios — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 20:46:25 +0000

What better way to ring in the New Year than with a new beginning!

Liz and Josh were married on New Year’s Eve at Saint John The Evangelist Catholic Church in Bellefonte. Since sunset is so early this time of year, we set up a “first look” at Talleyrand Park before the evening ceremony. The weather was cooperative (no snow or rain!) and we were able to get some photos of the bride and groom and the wedding party in Talleyrand and in front of the Centre County Courthouse before heading to St. John’s. The church was still beautifully decorated with Poinsettias and lights for the holiday season (a bonus for any holiday wedding), and Woodrings Floral Gardens did an amazing job of adding to the holiday decor! After a beautiful ceremony, Liz and Josh exited the church through a tunnel of sparklers to the waiting limo, and we were off to the reception at the Ramada Conference Center in State College. It was a wonderful night full of family and friends, with the DJ, Justin Hill, keeping the dance floor full, a delicious cake (as usual!) from Delectable Delights by Heather Luse, - and lots of New Year’s Eve party favors They ended the night with a live video feed of the Times Square countdown!

Congratulations Liz and Josh!

Michele and Corey’s Wedding at The Inn at Edgewater Acres

vjmStudios — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 00:24:48 +0000

Michele and Corey were married at the Inn at Edgewater Acres, a lovely Inn nestled in the South Central Mountains of Pennsylvania. After the ceremony, which was held out on the lawn overlooking the water, the bride and groom snuck away for a few moments before returning through a flurry of bubbles from their families and friends. The water made a beautiful backdrop for the family photos and photos of the wedding party. We also got some great shots of the newlyweds alone before heading inside for the reception. The entertainment was provided by Local Motion Entertainment, and the floral design was from Daniel Vaughn Desings - amazing, as always. Congratulations Michele and Corey!

Erin and Jeremy – Toftrees Wedding Photography

vjmStudios — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 12:44:51 +0000

We were very happy when Erin and Jeremy asked us to photograph their wedding! We photographed Erin’s sister’s wedding in 2008, so it was nice to see so many familiar faces. They were married at Toftrees Resort on the croquet lawn and their reception was held in Le Papillon. It was a bit chilly that day, but the weather held and they were able to have the ceremony outside like they had been hoping (they actually live in Minnesota, so a little chill in the air is nothing to them!). After dinner, we were able to snag the newlyweds for a few photos of just the two of them before they headed back into the reception for an evening of fun and laughter with good friends and family. We’re glad we could be a part of it!

Congratulations Erin and Jeremy!

Kristen and Josh – Harrisburg Wedding Photography

vjmStudios — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 02:07:08 +0000

It’s always good to have a change of scenery once in awhile… We first met Kristen when she was in a wedding we photographed in 2009, so we were thrilled when Kristen and Josh contacted us to see if we could photograph their wedding in Harrisburg. Of course we said yes immediately! It was a bit cool that day, but after a beautiful ceremony at the United Church of God, we headed to the Capitol for some photos. When we got there, we found that the fountain was pink (in honor of breast cancer awareness) – and it matched the bridesmaids’ pink sashes on their dresses! We got some nice shots there and then it was off to the Holiday Inn East for the reception, which included some great toasts (check out the photos below!), a little cake smashing, and lots of dancing. It was a wonderful day!

Congratulations Kristen and Josh!

Lauren and Josh – Lake Raystown Resort Wedding Photography

vjmStudios — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 14:33:19 +0000

Lauren and Josh were married at First United Methodist Church in Huntingdon and their reception was held at Lake Raystown Resort. After a lovely ceremony, they were greeted by their guests and lots of bubbles outside the church before a long limo ride to the reception. We stopped off on the way at a scenic spot along the lake for some photos on the pier – it provides a beautiful reflection in the water and a wonderful mountain backdrop. Then it was off to Lake Raystown Resort for the reception. Both Lauren and Josh love the outdoors, so the tables featured some beautiful, rustic centerpieces. The night was full of dancing (Lauren is a dancer, so there was a lot of dancing!), but we managed to sneak the newlyweds out to the terrace for a few lovely end of the night photos – a wonderful way to end a great day!

Congratulations Lauren and Josh!

Lisa and Ken – Our Lady of Victory and Mt. Nittany Inn

vjmStudios — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 00:51:58 +0000

We had a wonderful time with Lisa and Ken on their wedding day! We went our separate ways before the wedding – Vicky with Lisa at the Inn on the Sky (a beautiful bed and breakfast nestled in scenic Penns Valley), and Jim with Ken at Our Lady of Victory Catholic Church. After a beautiful ceremony, the newlyweds exited the church to bubbles and took a short trip to the Nittany Lion Shrine and Old Main for some photos before heading to the Mt. Nittany Inn for a small, relaxing reception of close friends and family. The floral design was by Avant Garden and the delicious cake was made by Delectable Delights. There were even special cookies made by Ken and Lisa – Ken and his mom used to make them, and now Ken and Lisa make them together. It was a great day and we are thankful to have been able to share it with so many wonderful people – it was like we were part of the family!

Thanks for having us and congratulations Lisa and Ken!
