Anna & Dan’s English Garden Mansion Wedding was absolutely beautiful, as you can see from their wedding photos! They had to postpone their wedding due to COVID-19 so it was a long and highly-anticipated wait for the bride & groom. But once the date finally came, we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day! They had their gorgeous outdoor ceremony at Parque Ridley Creek, nestled in the back English Garden and among the historic stone ruins. Their cocktail hour was then on Parque Ridley Creek’s back stone terrace under the bistro lights and setting sun. And their reception was inside Parque’s beautiful ballroom inside the stately mansion. We took full advantage of the beautiful grounds that surround the English Tudor stone mansion, named Hunting Hill Mansion, for all their bridal portraits. For the bride & groom’s First Look, we utilized the historic stone ruins and had Anna wait on the inside and Dan wait on the outside. That way she was able to be fully tucked away until the moment she was ready for him to see her. It was truly like a fairytale watching her pass under the stone archway and make her way to her groom. The couple decided to exchange hand-written vows back-to-back first, before turning to see each other. It was incredibly romantic and intimate and allowed them to have a private moment, just the two of them, before celebrating their love in front of all their guests during the ceremony later on! Once they were reunited with their bridesmaids and groomsmen, we walked around the historic mansion grounds and explored all of the gardens and fountains for the bridal party portraits and family portraits. The entire wedding day was gorgeous and Arielle Fera Events did an incredible job designing every aspect, down to the smallest detail. It was a day full of beauty and love and celebration, and I was so honored to be their wedding photographer!
