Laura & Ricki had the most beautiful class and traditional wedding this July in Buffalo, New York. Making the trip back home from their current residence in Chicago, Laura spent the morning getting ready with her parents and bridesmaids at her childhood home. And Ricki and his groomsmen got ready at his brother-in-law’s house (who also happens to be a past wedding client of mine). The sun was shining and it was a perfect July morning as they headed off to exchange vows at a ceremony held in one of Buffalo’s historic churches, Corpus Christi. As we went to depart the church for their portrait locations, it started downpourring – but we took a chance and headed to the Albright Knox to attempt some non-rainy photos there. The weather gods were definitely in our favor, as we were able to get in all their wedding party photos – just missing the rain! – AND we ended up having the entire place to ourselves! I typically don’t recomend going to the Albright Knox for photos on a wedding day because usually there are lines of wedding parties waiting for photos. But it all worked out for us, and I was over-the-moon excited to be able to get them the portraits in locations we had planned out together!
After the wedding party photos, everyone hopped in the limo and headed off to The Columns Banquet, for a laid, black and classic reception. It was an evening to remember and I’m so excited to share highlights from their day with you today! Congratulations again, Laura & Ricki!
