a beautiful & intimate lakeside ceremony
“…all the colors bring the beauty out in you.”
- rebelution
Brie & Mike tied the knot during a private ceremony on their family's lakeside property in Saratoga, NY, and let me tell you - these two are perfection! Not only is their chemistry off the charts, their sense of adventure knows no bounds (see: carousel rides, tulip romps, and photos IN the lake!). Ryan and I were so incredibly honored to witness their love for each other firsthand. In fact, the ordained Ryan even married them!
One month after their intimate nuptials, the couple invited all of their friends, family, and loved ones to a wonderfully fun reception at Branches in West Long Branch. Toasts were made, dances were danced, and I photographed more airborne guests than I have ever witnessed (it was THAT great of a party)!
