Jaymie & Brad’s Country Club Wedding on Long Island

You may remember Jaymie & Brad from their super-fun Coney Island engagement portraits! Well last weekend they finally got tie the knot and celebrate the occasion with all their family and friends out at Fresh Meadow Country Club just outside the city on Long Island. For me this was a larger-than-average wedding, tons of guests in black tie and yes, a BIG wedding party–is it just me or is this trending? Either that or I seem to have a niche with big wedding parties! We totally lucked out with the weather as it was the perfect temperature to ride around on golf carts and shoot portraits outside. We made the most of the beautiful grounds of the golf course and even got to take the couple down to a pretty little bridge a little ways away from the main buildings. When we returned we gathered the wedding party for their group shots outside nearby and then went in to do the family portraits in front of the lovely Chuppah prepared by Metro Floral Designs. I must say, these guys do great work– Jaymie’s bouquet of Spray roses, Ranculus and Panda Amenonies was to die for, and the variety of white orchid centerpieces were beautiful! After signing their Ketubah, Jaymie & Brad were ready for the big ceremony! From cocktail hour onwards this party was totally hopping. What a fun group of guests– the dance floor was extremely active all night with a great soundtrack provided by the musicians of New York City Swing… everyone had a marvelous time! Congratulations, Jaymie & Brad!!!
