Ujjaini and Tom invited us to photograph their wedding at the scenic site of the historic Mills Mansion on the Hudson River. This relatively “undiscovered” mansion served as the perfect location for this romantic couple, who enjoy the outdoors as well as the refinement of the mansion venue.
Originally from India, Ujjaini was an absolutely beautiful bride. She and her bridesmaids busily prepared themselves and trying their hardest not to be late. When we arrived at the mansion, Tom was patiently waiting for his bride, and shortly afterward everyone walked down the gentle slope towards the river for an intimate and relaxed wedding on the Hudson.
After the ceremony was over, the mansion served as the backdrop for the family formals. Once those were done, the real fun began, as Ujjaini and Tom allowed us some time alone with just the two of them to create some incredibly romantic and fashionable images that clearly captured their feelings for one another. The brightness of the white-washed porch and the tall stately columns of the mansion intensified the romanticism of the images.
We said we would update you on some recent weddings, so here is one that we are now designing a book for. Jenn and Jason were so much fun, and their Skylands Manor wedding was incredibly beautiful (and one of our favorite places to work so far).
As you can see, the dress was positively amazing. It was custom-made in two colors, with a 20-foot detachable train. The rose bouquets from Morningside Greenhouse in NJ were fragrant and beautiful. Trumpeteers greeted the guests, and then the processional down the long green lawn of the castle began to the sounds of the Empyreal Strings Quartet. It was a beautiful ceremony, sealed with a romantic kiss as Jason dipped his bride. Doves were then released, and the reception followed.
The wedding party all entered the castle with masks and boas to kick off the celebration, with music by their band Ariel. The band was fabulous and kept everyone on the floor. The food by Frungillo Caterers was exceptional (we had the Beef Wellington-yum!). At the end of the evening, we stole away with Jenn and Jason for a romantic fashion shoot in the dark hallways of the castle. What an incredible day!
