I am so excited to share these images from Rebecca and Mike’s wedding! It was such a wonderful day of tradition and fun. Check out some of my favorite photos of the day!
Here’s a Q&A with Rebecca + Mike!
Looking back, what were some of your favorite parts or moments of the Wedding day?
Loved all the dancing! Between our two families and all our friends we had music from Georgia, Morocco, Israel, and of course some Beyonce.
What was your favorite piece of fashion or accessory, and where did you get it?
Well of course the dress that my mother in law and grandmother in law made for me. They spent months working on it, and we had many stressful and wonderful fittings together. I think one of my favorite parts of the dresses were the jeweled belts for both skirts – they made them entirely by hand!
What was the inspiration for your decor or styling?
We liked the vibe of classical ballrooms and wanted to contrast that with the lofty feel of Bridgeport.
Mention a funny moment here:
To keep me laughing through our photos, my husband would rotate through his arsenal of European accents.
Any wedding advice for engaged couples?
Excel spreadsheets are your best friend. I made one for every aspect of the wedding to help me stay organized.
Tell us about the honeymoon!
Does a long weekend on the couch count as a honeymoon?
What was it like working with Sprung Photo?
There’s no doubt that Victoria creates beautiful, bold photos. But one of my favorite parts about working with her and her team was their total expertise about the wedding day. It was like working with another wedding planner. They were totally on top of the schedule and coordinating the sequence of the day. I felt completely confident and assured in their hands.
