Wedding season is officially underway. On Friday, Leslie and Craig’s wedding at Skylands Manor in Ringwood, NJ was one that will be memorable for YEARS to come. Their Fantasy themed wedding was unique in every way and incorporated just about everything Leslie and Craig love. From cloaks, to Doctor who card boxes, to dragon cake toppers, and more, every bit of their wedding was uniquely them.
The wedding setting couldn’t have been more perfect for their theme, having their wedding at Skylands Manor, an old historic castle in NJ. Every room was adorned with rich wood and marble, and their decor fit perfectly into the venue, like it had been there all along.
We did their first look with umbrellas outside the castle in the rain. Luckily Skylands Manor has a spectacular inside and we got to take all the pictures in the Great Hall, and the Library. (Not sure if I’ll ever get to say that in a sentence again!)
After the ceremony they kicked off cocktail hour in the Great Hall followed by their reception in the ballroom. Leslie and Craig shared a beautiful choreographed dance, followed by parent dances and then their first dance (with a fog machine!!) that made it seem like they were dancing on a cloud (pretty perfect for the theme I’d say!) After cutting their dragon cake the adults enjoyed a cigar roller and the kids enjoyed a robot!
The dance floor was jam packed all night and everyone came ready to party which always makes our job even more fun!! I absolutely loved how personal this day was and am so thrilled I got to be there to document this magical love story.
Leslie and Craig, I hope you always find happiness with each other. It has been an honor documenting your love story and I wish you a lifetime of happiness!
Thank you to these incredible vendors who made the day possible!
