When Christine and Michael’s big day arrived so did the sunshine. The two planned a gorgeous and fresh, summer themed wedding in coral and navy.

The ceremony and reception took place at Rock Hill Country Club in Manorville, New York, a place where Christine spent her summers and her dad was the golf pro. The ceremony took place outside under a white arbor. Then the celebrations continued with lavish appetizers and cocktails in the sun drenched banquet room that popped with pink peonies. Christine and Michael’s love is so apparent in their photos. Stolen kisses, long looks, joyful laughter, and wrapped in each other’s arms.

It started at the school Christine and Michael worked at… each were coming out of relationships and were not looking for something new, but with a nudge from a friend agreed on a coffee date in Christine’s hometown of West Hampton at the Post Cafe.  The city center is straight out of a Norman Rockwell painting. Christine turned their coffee date into a lunch date and their happiness ensued.

On the last Saturday of May, Christine and Michael said I do at Rock Hill Country Club.  The skies were sunny and slightly windy, everyone cheered and laughter was shared as Christine’s veil was swept away by the wind and her heart by Michael.  Their wedding was drenched in natural light and accented in coral and navy.  Surrounded by their children Christine and Michael’s ceremony was officiated by the same friend who encouraged their first date.

Christine and Michael, thank you so much for letting me take part in your wedding day.  All smiles and love… your love is beautiful and I feel blessed to have been able to document a small part of it. xoxo, Jackie
