Today we are featuring one of our last weddings of the season, I have loved this wedding season and look forward to sharing these last weddings with you!

On October 12th, on a chilly but beautiful fall day, Justin and Stephanie tied the knot and became a family of four!

Their story started when Stephanie asked him out for a birthday dinner! Stephanie describes it like this… “Justin is super shy so that first date was kind of awkward! We went to dinner at Applebee’s, then the casino to watch some horse racing followed by a movie. Our second date was a hike and picnic in the woods at Penn State Behrend and a few days later Justin made dinner for me! That was the last dinner he has cooked for me! Haha! We quickly became inseparable and a short while later I introduced him to my children who absolutely adore him.” Then in December of 2018, a few days after Christmas, Justin proposed! Stephanie got home after a late day of work, the house was dark, Justin met her at the car and told her and the kids that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with them!! He got down on one knee and the kids plugged in the Christmas lights on the house to reveal the lights on the roof reading, “will you marry me?”. One of the sweetest holiday proposals!!

Justin and Stephanie’s ceremony and reception were held at the beautiful Gannon University Ball Room, it was full of color, happiness, and joy!

One of my favorite parts of the wedding day was watching Justin interact with Stephanie and seeing the love he has for her! The first look was my favorite!! When Stephanie took Justin’s blindfold off, he was so happy and excited to see her he could barely contain it! It was SO cute!!! I wish I had a video of it! Those moments are the reason’s I am so passionate about my work and why photography is such a must on your wedding day!!

Congratulations to our love birds! Here is to a happily ever after!!
