We were excited to return to the charming seaside town of Cape May for Madison and Hugh's wedding event in early October! The weather was absolutely perfect, actually very sunny and summer-like on this fall day. And as they always do, Bel Momento Weddings helped to plan and organize a flawless, fun and truly memorable wedding event. Even though Maddie and Hugh attended nearby elementary schools and knew many of the same people from those days, their paths never crossed unti

It was such a joy to film Kara and Kyle's beautiful wedding day! We were thrilled when Kara gave us a call during the summer of 2024 to find out if we were available for her wedding day the following June. We actually didn't realize that we were also filming Kyle's brother's wedding day that fall! Kara and Kyle's Cape May wedding was simply spectacular, and we know it was everything they had dreamed it would be. We were very happy to have the opportunity to film their welc

Happy 1st Anniversary to Shannon and Scott! We loved heading down to Cape May for their amazing wedding event, held at Our Lady Star of the Sea, and at the historic Congress Hall. What a beautiful day to celebrate the enduring love of this sweet couple. Happy Anniversary!

Just as in years past, personalization is still paramount in weddings even more now than ever before. Brides and grooms are enjoying the freedom to create an event that matches their personalities and lifestyle and truly reflects the custom wedding of their dreams. Today, many couples aren’t feeling the need to include all of their family traditions and customs and they don’t want to have essentially the same wedding event as everyone else. Unique is in, and full personaliz

We were so blessed to have such a gorgeous, sunny day for this Cape May wedding event! And what a complete pleasure it was to film, as this wedding, with its location playing such an important role in the couple's lives, was so wonderful in every single way. Shannon and Scott met via a dating app, then had their first date in Washington, DC. And we loved hearing about Scott's proposal... Scott wanted to be sure all of Shannon's siblings were there for the day he 'popped the

As the wedding season kicks off, a big 2024 bridal gown trend we're looking forward to is pin-thin spaghetti straps, wedding gowns with ultra thin shoulder straps. With 'barely there' ties, many of these gowns come pretty close to the always-popular strapless dress in appearance. But they have the added bonus of increased comfort and absolute security, the wedding gown held up and in place with very tiny, very lovely shoulder straps. Wedding gowns with delicate spaghetti s

As we endure the bitter cold and bleakness of another winter season here in the mid-Atlantic, we can’t help but think back and pine for those sunny, summer weddings and all the lovely summery wedding themes. And as we're fairly close to the shore here in New Jersey, one of the biggest themes we see often and love so much is the nautical or beach theme. Really, the nautical theme can be used for weddings taking place in all seasons and in all locations. But a wedding on an

Caroline and Cliff met in college one October, when Cliff's fraternity was having a Halloween party. A lot of Caroline's friends were going because they had been invited by what turned out to be Cliff's friends. She was hoping to be invited, too, so she could hang out and have fun with her friends. Two days before the party, Cliff, whom Caroline had never met, asked her to be his date. She excitedly said 'yes' mainly so she could be with her friends. But once she was int

Caitlin and Dylan met as freshmen, right at the beginning of their college experience in Philadelphia. During 'welcome week', Dylan approached Caitlin while on a tour and asked "Do I know you from somewhere?" Those words were just the beginning of what would become a beautiful relationship. Caitlin describes the day Dylan proposed as simply, "an awesome day!" Dylan 'popped the question' at the Assembly Rooftop Lounge, overlooking the bustling Ben Franklin Parkway and histo

We were so looking forward to this wedding event! Not only is it always wonderful to film ‘down the shore’ in June, but we were also really looking forward to meeting this couple and their family… and their chosen reception venue, Congress Hall, is such a beautiful, historic gem! Katie and Gus certainly are world travelers! The two met in college while they were studying abroad in Venice, Italy. We understand that Katie actually slipped and fell into the Grand Canal shortl

Maddie and John held their amazing wedding event at the place where John proposed, the beautiful beach at Cape May! The weather was simply outstanding for a wedding on this sunny, fall day. That morning, John and his groomsmen got ready for the big day at The White Cottage, a beachy rental right next to their reception venue. They wore classic black tuxedos the the event, but sported those apropos bright beach umbrella socks to add a fun touch to their traditional attire!
