Valerie + Rob : Bonnet Island Estate Wedding in Long Beach Island, NJ

April 5, 2016 by Jensey 2 Comments

Oh, this wedding, y’all. <3

I big time oldie but goodie- I think I may be two years late with this one (!!!!), but I’m so excited to finally share. Valerie was a bridesmaid in Gina and Bob’s wedding years ago and brought us up to New Jersey for her wedding!

What else can I tell you about these two? In 10 years, we’ve never had a bride as smiley as Valerie. She was a guest at a wedding we shot in Jersey last year, and I spotted her smile from across the venue! Her personality is infectious, and she’s craaaaaazy about Rob, who is a real-life Clark Kent. They have a cat named Mr. Darcy who was sadly didn’t make the wedding guest list, and they met playing in a co-ed touch football league!

Oh, and they had THE most adorable flower girls. LOOK AT THESE LITTLE WOMEN! <3

Their wedding was at a new favorite of mine, the Bonnet Island Estate in Long Beach, NJ. Truly a fairy tale setting and photographer’s dream! As are big-bowed, gold Kate Spade heels!
