Lauren<\/a> & Dano’s<\/a> wedding was an eagerly awaited event for all of us that know them.\u00a0 They’ve been a tight and obviously perfectly matched couple for many years now, so to finally celebrate their union with a sweet and intimate weekend at this gorgeous location in The Fingerlakes was and honor and a joy and I was so thrilled they hired me to capture it for them.\u00a0 Knowing Lauren since our college days at Wesleyan I suspected she would come up with something really fun and different for her wedding decor, and sure enough there was a super-cute pinwheel motif consistent throughout the wedding– pinwheels instead of bridesmaid bouquets, pinwheels sprinked in her bouquet and the centerpieces, pinwheels shaped cookies as favors, etc. The colors too, were bright and bold blues and greens with some yellows int he flowers too.\u00a0 Our mutual friend Ben Simington officiated the ceremony, and he did such a brilliant job I think I need to insist that he take up officiating Central Park elopements back here in the city– he had a fantastic presence and voice, striking just the right balance of humor and focused sincerity, and I mean, what with that beard, well,\u00a0 he really looks the part!\u00a0 The setting of The Fontainebleau Inn<\/a> was incredible and the weather played nice for the most part– nice enough that we went through with the outdoor ceremony down by the lake near a giant tree. As you can see, Lauren looked incredible in this amazing dress by Leanne Marshall– a perfect fit for the Old Country Inn style setting I must say. And of course what took the wedding over the top for me was an amazing round of moving and hilarious toasts…\u00a0 Congratulations to this fantastic couple– they deserve every happiness! \u00a0 A big thanks to my wonderful husband Keith for his excellent assistance and company throughout the weekend!<\/p>\n
