Nicole + Nico’s wedding was my last wedding for 2016. I can’t believe I’m finally saying that! I feel like this year flew by but at the same time my wedding season was long! December weddings are always different and I loved the Christmas style throughout the day. From fresh greenery in the chapel, to the crystal snowflakes above the dance floor at Avion. I’m not sure if Nicole knew how wonderful the snowflakes were in pictures, but it was one of my favorite things about their reception. My off camera flash just made them POP!

Being around Nicole and her family, it was not hard to figure out they all love each other deeply. It was so sweet to capture moments of them at their house as Nicole got ready. Nicole’s dress was amazing and seemed like it was made for just her. Perfect for a winter wedding.

The chapel at Boardman Park had just the right amount of Christmas and although it was crowded, the ceremony was joyful and intimate. Capturing Nico as Nicole walked down the aisle was yet another one of my favorite parts of the day.

Avion on the Water is lovely and the staff are always fantastic. The decorations were frosted greens with vibrant reds as well as an amazing cookie table. I feel like I say that every time but for real, the dessert were awesome. They even had a hot cocoa bar where you could get different spoons dipped in chocolate. They even decorated the Redi-Whip cans! Legit. Oh my gosh! Now I want a hot cocoa.

Congrats Mr & Mrs Saborse! Your wedding was the perfect way to end my year!
