Jenneen and Gregory's Wedding
Jenneen and Gregory do everything in a big way. Their wedding was absolutely no exception. In one evening, they somehow managed to roll celebration after celebration into one gala event that their family and friends will never forget.
We first spent time with Jenneen for last-minute preparation at her home, where Jenneen showed us the fabulous shoes that she MADE for her wedding. We then arrived at Reid Hall, located at Manhattanville College. This six-story, 84-room mansion served up fond memories for the couple, and the chapel next door was where they would be wed. With parents and grandparents looking on, Jenneen and Gregory said their vows to one another. While the event was certainly full of dignity, Jenneen and Gregory also enjoyed themselves, with humorous glances towards the front rows of family.
After taking a few brief pictures of their family, the happy couple spent a little time with us taking some less traditional photos, which they clearly enjoyed doing. To our surprise, Jenneen had some ideas for photo ops that she wanted to try out. She had the energy and the spirit, and so we just went with it! Gotta love a bride who isn't afraid to express herself in front of camera (we laughed about how she could easily replace Madonna in some of her videos!)
Finally, it was time to go to the incredible V.I.P. Country Club. What a beautiful place, and what an even more excellent staff they have there. We couldn't say enough positive things about them for the way in which Debbie (the coordinator) and the wait staff treated us. We look forward to working there again. We walked around and took some details of the dining room, where there were TWO cakes, one in the form of stacked and ribboned boxes, the other with a Ferrari logo. The meal was out of this world, too — several times throughout the night, Jenneen and Gregory INSISTED that we eat. With that kind of pressure, we just had to give in (thank you so much, J & G, for making sure we were very well cared for). :-)
We love live music, and the sounds of the Carozza Brothers kept everyone entertained with music ranging from old Sinatra classics to more modern beats. This accomplished group of musicians, along with very talented vocalists, kept a large number of guests on the floor. Toward the end of the evening, Carozza Brothers thrilled everyone by firing off streamers and confetti into the crowd. The smiles on Jenneen and Gregory's faces lit the entire room. It was an amazing and fun-filled night.
There's too much else to describe about their evening — cigar rolling, an awesome Viennese hour, and more! So why not simply go to their gallery of images to see for yourself. A link should be available very soon in the "Client Proofs" section of our main website.
