Crossed Keys Estate Wedding

You may remember Carly and Val from their Little Italy engagement shoot. Just a few weeks later they exchanged vows at the Crossed Keys Estate and had a great party for all their friends and family.

There are so many beautiful moments and memories when I look back on this day. Their families who greeted us with open arms when we arrived on their wedding day. Val’s uncle who got ordained so he could marry his nephew to his beautiful bride, Carly. And let’s not forget about Carly’s dress. A long sleeve lace gown (aka a piece of art) designed by the impeccable Watters.

Carly and her bridesmaids got ready in the playhouse on the Crossed Keys property overlooking the ceremony site. It was a warm August morning and the property was decorated with greenery and freshly bloomed dahlias. Carly’s Mom and sister helped her into her dress while Val and his groomsmen got dressed in another house on the property. And the day just kept getting better. Starting with Val seeing his bride for the very first time on his wedding day. The incredible amount of guests who showered Carly and Val with love as they exchanged their own written vows. The sparkler exit to end the perfect evening. It was a memorable day filled with so much emotion I wish I could hold on to forever. Cheers to an amazing couple and a beautiful wedding!

And a huge thank you to my wonderful friend and second shooter Nicole Detone.
