Karena and Kevin celebrated a day full of beauty, joy, and a bit of weather luck at their June wedding at Manchester Country Club. The forecast called for rain, but the skies held off and gave us a breezy, beautiful afternoon. The couple shared a sweet first look on the golf course, just the two of them surrounded by green fairways! After the ceremony, guests waved colorful ribbons as the newlyweds walked back up the aisle, filling the air with cheers and celebration. What a day!
Manchester Country Club
We arrived at Manchester Country Club to find the vibes high and the excitement even higher! Karena and her bridesmaids laughed, sipped drinks, and toasted the bride in their matching robes and slippers. Down the hall, Kevin and his groomsmen wrapped up their morning with a relaxing round of golf and started getting ready. Kevin’s soon-to-be stepson, Elliot—also the ring bearer, got dressed by his side. Kevin added a touching tribute to his tux: a pin honoring his late father. Once ready, we brought Karena and Kevin out to the golf course for their first look. They shared a quiet moment together and exchanged a few sweet words before we dove into portraits. Family and the wedding party joined in for group photos, then everyone took a quick break to freshen up before the ceremony kicked off!
After refreshing, the excitement began to build for the big moment. Guests arrived, excited with anticipation, and took their seats. Up front, Kevin stood beside his stepfather, Roger, who had the honor of officiating. In the front row, Elliot—waited patiently to watch his mom marry the love of her life. Every seat held a colorful ribbon wand, ready for a fun and grand exit! Then, all eyes turned as Karena walked down the aisle, escorted by both her mom and dad. Kevin’s face lit up with the biggest smile! After exchanging vows, Elliot stepped in to deliver the rings—such a special moment. The couple sealed their promises with a kiss. As they made their way back up the aisle, ribbons filled the air and cheers followed them. Without missing a beat, Karena and Kevin headed straight into cocktail hour, ready to celebrate with their favorite people!
