Romantic Wedding at Park Chateau New Jersey

Happy New Year’s everyone! I know technically we are already two weeks into the new year but it is my first time blogging in 2021 so I think the greeting is still relevant. 😂 Well I am starting off strong this year sharing literally some of my favorite wedding photos that I took in 2020 on the blog. If you are a photographer and have never been apart of a Styled Shoots of America’s wedding day shoot crawls, let me break it to you. You are missing out! This is just one of the amazing set ups that at the Park Chateau in New Jersey. And with all the vibrant colors, delicate details, and the most gorgeous couple ever, I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to share. This set up was honestly a wedding photographer’s dream come true.

Park Chateau is hands down one of the most gorgeous wedding venues I have ever been to. Every single space was just AMAZING! But the ballroom, where I shot these images, might be my favorite place in the whole wedding venue. With its tall white ceilings and gorgeous nearly floor to ceiling windows, the room was just perfect for the berry themed color palette. And the table set up was just EVERYTHING! I have never seen a wedding day table set up that was not either rectangular, round, or half-moon shaped. But this table was literally so unique I don’t even know what word I could use to describe it. You just have to scroll down to see what I’m talking about.

And I can NOT end this blog post without mentioning the stars of this entire shoot, Jayvonne and Francine. Not only are they a gorgeous couple but these two just have a way with the camera. In my experience, a lot of times when there is a wedding or coupled styled or shoot like this one, the couples aren’t actually a couple. They are paid models who just met and really have no real chemistry. This can make things a little awkward when it comes to posing. Just meeting someone and having to pretend they are your husband or wife would be a little strange for anyone. But we must have hit the jackpot or something because even though these actually two are models, they also happen to be dating in real life. So there was absolutely no awkwardness between them. Just super sweet embraces and a naturally adorable chemistry. And modeling obviously made them a lot more comfortable in front of the camera because we barely had to pose them. Honestly these two are just picture perfect. I do not think we could have had a better match for this wedding styled shoot. And I am so excited I got to be apart of such and amazing editorial wedding styled shoot. This may have been the first but it surely will not be the last.
