Leave it to the Big Apple to bring these two together! Bridget and Justin met in NYC at a mutual friend’s birthday party and started dating after they happened to run into each other again later that year! Justin proposed to Bridget at one of their favorite places in NYC, the Metropolitan Museum of Art! Elizabeth is a manager of public relations and social media for Elizabeth Arden and Justin is an MBA candidate at Cornell University’s Johnson School of Management. Having a lot of family in Richmond, Virginia they decided that was the perfect place to get married and we loved spending the day as Richmond Virginia wedding photographers! Bridget and her bridesmaids spent the morning getting ready in the gorgeous The Jefferson Hotel in downtown Richmond, while the guys were having some fun at The Graduate Hotel. The wedding party traveled over to the St. Peter Catholic Church on the RVA Trolley which was so fun, we always love photographing the bridal party on the trolley! After the beautiful ceremony, their friends and family sent them on their way with applause outside the gorgeous Catholic church, the whole bridal party walked over to the Capitol building where we had time for some group shots of everyone together! Afterwards, we all headed over to the The Commonwealth Club to start the reception! It is such a beautiful ballroom and perfect for Bridget and Justin’s black tie Richmond, Virginia wedding! We loved the how Petals & Twigs lined the gorgeous staircase with flowers! It was stunning! What a wonderful day celebrating these two and we couldn’t’ have been happier to be a part of their Richmond wedding day. We enjoyed seeing all of their beautiful honeymoon photos of Greece and wish them all the best!
