More often than not, when we show up in the bridal suite greeted with a pair of shoes as fabulous as these Jimmy Choo's, we know that this bride has impeccable taste, with details we would fall in love with. Sure enough, our instincts were right.

Jane and Reuben planned a beautiful wedding centered around the campus where they had first met and fell in love, at Columbia University in New York City. Of course, tying the knot in the university's magnificent chapel was the perfect choice. Their reception was held at Columbia University's very own Faculty House, a beautiful space with the most stunning view of Manhattan. Guests were greeted at the door with adorable calligraphy escort cards and a wedding cake that made our jaws drop. Dozens of intricately crafted sugar flowers cascaded down the side of the cake in the most amazing way, and the entire masterpiece was just sitting there beckoning us to photograph every single little detail it had to offer. Every direction we turned, there was something that lit up our eyes and drew our lenses closer. Everything was so charming and absolutely perfect. And seeing how happy Jane and Reuben were at the end of the day, all the hard work it took to put together this wedding day, in all its detailed glory, was totally worth it. Even better when you get to relive it over and over again through these pictures!

It was a surprise walking into the bride's hotel room the morning of the wedding and finding her in a pair of running shorts, sneakers, and her dad's over-sized dress shirt--with the biggest smile on her face. I could tell Joanne was excited about her wedding day, even though she started out the day in such a peculiar outfit (smile). The men showed up soon after the bride put on her intricate Chinese bridal outfit (made authentically in Hong Kong!), and were greeted at the door with chocolate-covered brussel sprouts, a lady's sundress, and a love song that Kevin had to serenade to a member of his entourage--all the while being rated by a tough crowd of bridesmaids. As the day began with some twisted faces and good laughs, we knew that even with the gloomy weather, we were going to have a great day. Sure enough, the rain even cleared up just long enough for Joanne and Kevin to have the outdoor ceremony they had always dreamed of. And they couldn't have looked happier.

We love it when the bride and groom put in a little extra effort to make their wedding personal, memorable, and just a little different! One of our favorites is when the whole wedding is built around a central theme--like Therese and Paolo's bike-themed wedding. Plus the ever-so-chic combo of gray and yellow details, it was a win-win. They even named each of their guest tables after different bike parts--I had no idea a bike had that many parts! Thanks to the creative bride and the groom's irresistible swagger, there were so many incredible moments and details that we enjoyed throughout the day. Not to mention, their bridal party was equally fierce and fabulously fearless, making this one party nobody would want to miss. Coincidentally, Snooki from Jersey Shore was having dinner downstairs on the same evening, and the bartender almost kicked us out while we were taking pictures on the balcony, thinking we were the paparazzi. Eek!
