Barbara & Jonathan's Wedding

So while Kim was at The Head of The Bay Club in Huntington Bay with Katie and Matt, I was at my favorite wedding location on Long Island with Barbara & Jonathan - the magnificent DeSeversky Center in Old Westbury. The rain came down in Old Westbury too that day but it really didn't put a dampener on the wedding so to speak as Barbara & Jonathan put on their best smiles and were a delight to be with.

There's something very beautiful and serene about this photograph - I think it's perhaps how the window light is gently bathing Barbara's fingers and bringing out the rich texture and delicate design of her dress..

If you ladies are contemplating on wearing a lace up wedding dress, take note - they do look beautiful for shore, maybe take a little longer to put on...

...but just wait for that last tug of the ribbons!

DeSeversky Center has so many beautiful shooting locations both inside and out. The main staircase is flanked by massive white stone walls which make for an awesome backdrop..

Barbara & Jonathan decided to see each other before the Ceremony ~ in fact, because the Ceremony was part Jewish, it was actually a requirement so I was able to get Jonathan's great reaction to his beautiful bride the first time he saw her in her wedding dress as she came down from the Bridal Suite...

The band was phenomenal! This is actually Jill from The Jill Gioia Band. They rocked the party all night and had some amazing musicians, several that perform in the band for Billy Joel's 'Movin' Out' Broadway play.

Barbara & Jonathan, thank you for sharing your special day with me and I look forward to seeing you next time you are up from Boca!
