Winter Wedding in Red Bank - NJ Wedding Photography

Alexis and Randall
Molly Pitcher Inn & St James Church ~ Red Bank, NJ

I'll admit it, winter weddings make me a little nervous.  Snowstorms, icy sidewalks, and shivering bridesmaids can make for a challenging portrait shoot, but Alexis and Randall lucked out with a beautiful 60 degree afternoon in January!
Alexis wore a delicate, vintage inspired gown by Jenny Packham that I absolutely loved.  The beaded overlay and cap sleeves gave the dress a formal feel without being fussy. In keeping with the winter season, Alexis opted not to use fresh flowers.  Instead, she incorporated shells, starfish, coral, and other sea inspired objects into the bouquets, boutonnieres, and table centerpieces.  It gave the day a winter white palette that was simple and textural.
