an ethereal autumn fete
“Oh, I won’t be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me”– ben e. king
Jenni + Eric are married – and these two finally got the long-awaited party they so deserved! Jenni’s word for the day was “ethereal”, and each little touch was perfectly that. Our team photographer Simmone had so much fun capturing all of the sweet moments and sweet details, from Jenni’s goddess-like gown and bursting autumnal blooms to the bold mural backdrops and classic iconic Asbury spots. And don’t think for a moment that J+E’s beloved cats didn’t make the cut – Eric wore their pictures as his cufflinks to ensure they were with them all day! After a sweet vow exchange, the two let loose on the dance floor and enjoyed their well-deserved pizza party with family & friends. Cheers to many more years of love, laughter, and kitty snuggles, you two!
