Friday’s wedding was filled with genuine love, love not only from Jessica and Mike but from everyone that joined them in celebrating their special day. It was clear to see that this wedding had been long awaited by the non-stop smiles throughout the day. During pictures, they were asked to do a serious face and Mike responded that it was hard to do because he could not stop smiling at Jessica. These were the things that turned this already beautiful day into an unforgettable one.
The couple and the wedding party met at The First Presbyterian Church in Utica, where they did their finishing touches in the lavish Church house next door. The building was stunning, with all hand carved wood and high painted ceilings, it fit the sophisticated style of the wedding party perfectly. We pulled Jessica and Mike away from their separate rooms for their first look on the elegant staircase. As Jessica walked down the stairs to meet her groom you could not help but smile, she was glowing and he was trying to hold it together, as soon as he turned around he was overwhelmed with emotion.
Before the ceremony the Pastor held a powerful prayer circle with the bridal party. As guests filled the church you could feel the anticipation growing. It was time. Jessica gets the cue to make her way to the church. She leaves the house alone and takes the walk by herself, her final moments before she is married. Jessica’s father greets her at the door and takes her hand, they sneak past the front entrance, and step inside. When Jessica is walked down the aisle, Mike is in tears again. After a sweet and heartfelt ceremony the guests make their way to The Radisson in Utica as the bridal party takes a walk down Genesee Street for some pictures. The night continued with awesome food, and great music by Kenny The Promo Guy. It was an awesome day for a sweet couple.
Congratulations Jessica and Mike!
