Bride with bridesmaids, smiling, holding bouquets on a bridge. Dresses are varying shades of blue.

I could not have imagined a better start to my 2014 season. Tony and Kristen planned a very cool wedding with a style all their own. The day started off by driving a school bus (yes the yellow kind you took to school) into Hartford. We then ransacked the Russian Lady and Pig’s Eye Pub before driving to The Riverview in Simsbury for the ceremony and reception. These two had the biggest smiles the entire day 🙂

Thank you so much for having me along guys. And Kristen said she was not photogenic at the start of the day 😀
