Emily & Alex's Wedding at Pleasantdale Chateau

We were excited to return to Pleasantdale Chateau for Emily and Alex's wedding celebration in October. The location is just beautiful, with lots of opportunities for great images. Our day started with Shelley shooting Emily's getting ready, and she found some light that sets off Emily's classic facial structure:

Meanwhile, Keith was at the church with the guys, where Alex was ready for the ceremony:

Emily and her girls arrived by trolley... this girl knows how to make an entrance!

We love churches with a balcony, it lets us take in the whole scene during the ceremony:

And here's a great shot as Emily and Alex leave the church after the ceremony, excited and joyful:

And here they are leaving the church, and back in the trolley for the ride to Pleasantdale Chateau:

The grounds at Pleasantdale were gorgeous, as usual, what an outstanding venue:

Along with lots of group photos, we had some time at the Chateau for a few shots with just the two of them:

Just before the start of the reception, Keith found this image while Emily was being bustled:

Party time! In the gorgeous ballroom, with an enthusiastic welcome from friends and family:

We got a series of closeups during their First Dance... These images can say so much about a couple and their relationship:

Music was supplied by the Smokin' Section:

The setup in the ballroom offered lots of beautiful details, with flowers by Crest Florist:

And, just like the balcony shot at the church, we took advantage of a similar opportunity for the party:

Congrats to Emily and Alex for a beautiful day, thanks for letting us share in it!
