Stefanie & Ryans New Years Eve Wedding at Arbor Loft in Rochester New York


I saw midnight for the first time in a long time ringing in the new year with Stefanie, Ryan, and their family and friends! I started the day with the bride and her girls just as they were finishing getting ready. I then went and took a peak at the beautifully decorated venue and then caught up with the groom and his guys. Once they all had a sip of some nice whisky, I went back and found the bride and her girls who popped some champagne. Once they were ready, we headed outside for some photos with the bridal party and family. As a nice touch, the bride and groom each held their parents wedding photo and had their parents also join in the present photo. We then took beautiful portraits of the bride and groom. As it got dark, the bridal party and parents lit sparklers to surround the bride and groom with. We then moved back inside for family photos and I took some more sneak peeks of the decor. The ceremony began at 6:30pm, followed by a brief cocktail party. Intros led into the dances and then speeches. After dinner, the cake was cut and desserts were served (with a fun s'mores station). Then the dance floored open to ring in the near year. Before the night ended, the bride, groom and I did sneak outside for some more photos before the bride changed into a sequence dress and slippers to finish celebrating!
