Wedding Spotlight: Lindsey and Brian
“Last Friday was perfection. We had wonderful weather, a great couple and an awesome venue. Lindsey and Brian tied the knot at 90 State Events in Albany but before that we stopped at Washington Park for first look and all of our pre-ceremony photos. Photographing these two was just easy, they are super into each other and clearly the camera loves them. Lindsey and Brian thank you so much for having us be a part of your big day. We want to wish you the very best in all your years to come. Congrats you two!” – J.P Elario (the incredibly talented photographer for Lindsey and Brian’s wedding, as well as one of our preferred photographers ).
This was such a fun couple to work with but the true star of the show was clearly their adorable chocolate lab!
One of our favorite parts of our 90 State Events venue is the location. Couples are able to get the best of both worlds. Chic, urban architecture in the heart of Downtown Albany, NY – yet they’re just two streets down from the picture perfect scenery of the Washington Park!
How bright and beautiful are these pictures of the bride and groom?
Once the reception started back at 90 State, you could truly feel the LOVE in the air.
The ceremony and reception took place at the venue and the beautiful stretching ceilings and columns created an effortlessly romantic backdrop to the event.
After the ceremony, the party began! The menu included a cocktail hour, sit-down dinner and a late night nosh station.
