Meet Alyssa and Mike who are sweet, thoughtful, kind who also planned a beautiful wedding and are now married!!! Here are some of their Lucien’s Manor wedding photos below! Their fall wedding color palette included deep red, white, greens and beautiful pastel pink. The bridal, bridesmaids and ceremony and reception flowers were a mix of all those colors. The bridesmaids wore beautiful mismatched floor length dresses that were deep red. The groomsmen had their tie of that same color. And Finnegan (Alyssa and Mike’s pup!!! HOW ADORABLE is he?!!!) matched the groomsmen with his gray vest and deep red bow tie and a pocket square. Also, talking about Finnegan, he NOT only joined the bridal party for some photos but also walked down the aisle and was there for the whole ceremony!!!! SO well behaved and handsome! Continuing with the look of the day though, Alyssa had dusty pink accents in her flowers and beautiful shoes. Her ring box also matched her delicate details and hopefully is there for a long time to keep her rings and remind her of the beauty of the wedding day. Mike looked super handsome himself too! Gray suit, white tie and a red rose for his boutonniere. These 2 looked amazing!!! Even more important though, they enjoyed their wedding and celebrated so well with their family and friends!
Everyone got ready at the hotel nearby. We then traveled to Berlin Park where Alyssa and Mike had their first look, exchanged compliments and started off with their portraits. It was a lovely October day and I am so glad there were some fall colors to commemorate it. We also did the bridal party photos and family photos at the park as well. Then we headed to Lucien’s Manor for a few more group photos and this is where Finnegan joined us! I met him during Alyssa and Mike’s engagement session but today he is SOOO extra handsome! It was fun seeing and photographing him!
The wedding ceremony was in the chapel. It was fun, light hearted and filled with laughter! Everyone enjoyed hearing Alyssa and Mike’s story as well as witnessing them exchanging their vows and now being officially married!!!! A few extended family photos later everyone joined the amazing cocktail hour that Lucien’s Manor always prepare! And then it was the PARTY time!!!! Impressive grand entrance, touching speeches, beautiful first dance and parent dances were all part of this. And of course there was A LOT of dancing! At the end of the party Alyssa and Mike shared a final private dance in the ballroom as the guests were leaving. I loved that idea!
I hope you enjoy looking through these moments and envision the wonderful celebration that has happened at Lucien’s Manor!

How pretty are Alyssa’s shoes?!!! I know it’s super stylish to wear high heels but this looks just as stylish but with a little more comfort!
And here is a sweet moment Alyssa shared with her dad for their first look.
I know you know that I think the bridal party looked sharp but seriously, I can’t get over what a cutie Finnegan is. He totally stole the show in my mind!
I used to not include family photos into blog post but I think I am changing it now. Families are the most important people for the bride and groom on their wedding days. So the plan is that you will see at least one family photo in each blog post :).
And here we go!!! All the special moments of the wedding ceremony!
What a stunning princess like ballroom for bride and groom!
Thank you so much for letting me a part of your special day! God bless you!!!
