Best Part of Me // Rachel + Kevin

Rachel and Kevin have been sweethearts since high school!  The two shared a couple of classes together and also had mutual friends, so naturally they started to hang out together.  Even though Kevin transferred to another high school for his senior year, they started officially dating and went to each other’s proms.  Then, when it was time for college, they stayed together literally and figuratively!  They both went to the same university and their love continued to grow and evolve.

For their 5th anniversary, the couple decided to celebrate over the weekend in the mountains of Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania.  They explored the charming and historic Pocono Mountains town and on the next morning, hiked the Glen Onoko trail.  Once they reached the top of the Glen Onoko Falls with its gorgeous scenic views, Kevin got down on one knee and asked Rachel to be his wife!  She was completely surprised and couldn’t stop crying!  Luckily, a couple passing by saw what was happening and took photos while Kevin took out the engagement ring and presented it to Rachel.  It was a breathtaking location and a beautiful moment that they’ll remember forever.  Another day they’ll never forget was their wonderful wedding day!

C.E. Facial Artistry applied the finishing touches as Rachel got ready on the morning of her wedding with her mother and her bridal party at the Hampton Inn & Suites in Bensalem.  The bridal party’s luscious ivory bouquets from Domenic Graziano Flowers, with all that wonderful greenery, coordinated beautifully with the maids’ of honor and bridesmaids’ lovely pale watercolor blue gowns.  And Rachel’s sweet junior bridesmaid and flower girl were so pretty in their special white dresses!

Rachel was an absolutely dazzling bride in her wedding gown!  She wore a sensational dress from Essense of Australia that featured a halter lace illusion neckline, a shimmering sheer lace overlay and a fit and flare silhouette.  And that full lace back was so gorgeous!

Meanwhile, Kevin and his groomsmen prepared for this special day, relaxing and even having a drink at Homewood Suites by Hilton in Newtown!  They all looked so dapper in their classic matching tuxedos.  And both Rachel and Kevin set aside some quiet time to read love notes that they exchanged.  It was so touching how emotional they each got after reading each other’s words.

Rachel and Kevin decided not to see each other before the ceremony and headed directly from their hotels to St. Ephrem Catholic Church.  As Rachel walked down the aisle on the arm of her father, Kevin saw his glowing bride for the first time that day.  Rev. Msgr. McAteer celebrated a traditional Catholic Nuptial Mass and led Rachel and Kevin in reciting their vows.  At the conclusion of the Mass, the two were pronounced ‘husband and wife’!  And as the two left the church, they were saluted with bubbles by their friends and family!

Then, it was off to the reception at the lovely Northampton Valley Country Club with its private, tree-lined drive and glamorous ballrooms!  Professional photos were captured inside Rachel and Kevin’s reception venue, along that quiet drive and on the picturesque golf course by the fantastic talent at Artistic Imagery.  It’s always a pleasure to work with their team and document such beauteous weddings alongside them.

Rachel and Kevin entered the beautiful grand ballroom holding hands and danced a very sweet first dance.  This was followed by a blessing from Rev. Msgr. McAteer, then heartfelt toasts from Rachel’s two maids of honor and Kevin’s two best men as Rachel and Kevin shared a sweetheart table at their reception.  Listen to how they all described their love and admiration for the couple, with Rachel’s maids of honor even reciting a delightful poem together!  Then, Rachel and her father danced a beautiful dance before dinner was served to guests.

EBE Talent’s Love 77 rocked the house all night long and kept Rachel and Kevin’s friends and family out on that dance floor!  Later that evening, a Sweet Pea Ice Cream truck offered guests sweet frozen treats and desserts were served, along with that scrumptious four-tiered cake from Desserts by Design, and everyone continued to dance the night away!

It was such a pleasure to work with this sweet couple and their family!  Thank you to Rachel and Kevin for allowing us to share in your beautiful wedding day and best wishes to you both from the entire team at Cord 3 Films!

Love is the Reason // Michelle + Glenn

We got our first call from Michelle back in early March and thoroughly enjoyed our conversations with her over the phone. Then, due to many busy months of wedding planning, as well as a big move to a new city and a new job, we sadly lost touch.  But happily, Michelle reached out to us again and booked our videography services less than three weeks before the big day!  And we were so thankful that she did!  Michelle and Glenn are such a sweet couple and their almost fall wedding was so delightful.

On the afternoon of the wedding, Michelle and Glenn each got ready in separate suites at Homewood Suites in Newtown, PA.  Michelle wore a gorgeous off the shoulder Galia Lahav princess ball gown with a sweetheart neckline, delicate beading and beautiful glittery floral appliqués all throughout the bodice and waistline.  In the back of her lovely, long wavy hair, she had a long veil fastened for the ceremony and she carried a lush, romantic bouquet in pink and white blooms.

Glenn and his groomsmen wore matching black tuxedos, Glenn standing apart with a classic bow tie while the rest of his party wore traditional black neckties.  And Michelle’s beautiful bridesmaids wore such divine coordinating gowns in shades of lilac, lavender and grape.

Michelle and Glenn held both their ceremony and reception at Northampton Valley Country Club in Richboro, PA.  This beautiful venue is set deep in the countryside of Bucks County and is known for its perfectly manicured grounds, elegant ballrooms and dramatic tree-lined drive.  Michelle and Glenn had their first look there at their venue, where they gazed at each other and shared a sweet kiss before the ceremony was to begin!

With Glenn looking on with tears in his eyes, Michelle walked down the aisle on the arm of both her father and step-father, as they each walked her halfway. We loved how much Glenn was filled with emotion all throughout the ceremony.  Reverend Kent Foster delivered a beautiful message, reminding Michelle, Glenn and their guests that love was the reason for this day.

At the reception, the couple of honor danced a wonderfully choreographed first dance after they were introduced to the cheers of their friends and family!  It was so beautiful to watch.  And we love it when the bride and groom decide on a sweetheart table at the reception.  Michelle and Glenn’s table was decorated beautifully with delicate flowers in pink and white and featured a charming ‘Mr. & Mrs.’ sign.

After the blessing, we were treated to perfect toasts from Michelle’s two maids of honor (her sisters who, yes, are twins!) and from Glenn’s best man.  Then following the first course, the couple danced very special dances to honor their parents as Glenn danced with his mother and Michelle with both her mother and father.  It was so sweet and so touching.  It was also so wonderful to work with Malie and her team at Marie Violet Photography as they photographed the day’s events.

Then, that delectable four-tiered wedding cake with cascading pink and white flowers by Desserts by Design was cut.  Soon, the dance floor was opened to everyone and wow, did they dance the night away!  Wired Up Entertainment totally rocked the house!

In the words of their officiant, on this day, love is the reason Michelle and Glenn “became one, one with hope, one in believing in each other and one in sharing their coming years”.  May these coming years all be filled with happiness and love.  Congratulations to Michelle and Glenn!
