7/6/08 - Stephanie and Steve - Beckwith Pointe

When I first met with Stephanie she had two requirements for her reception - that it be on the water and that they have a Greek DJ. We searched high and low and up and down the coast of Long Island Sound and came upon Beckwith Pointe in New Rochelle, NY. Stephanie and Steve knew it was the right place when they saw the beach right outside the reception room window. Finding a Greek DJ proved to be a bit of a challenge but we eventually found Greek Wave of Long Island and we were so pleased with this choice. So with the sun shining brightly and celebrating with 150 of his and her closest Greek relatives the couple danced their way into the night overlooking a spectacular view of the Sound.

Earlier in the afternoon the couple was married at Arcangels Greek Orthodox Church in Stamford. Following the ceremony they spent some alone time in a vintage Rolls Royce which took them to Beckwith Pointe. Ann, of Dirt Floral Design in Cos Cob, created the beautiful bouquets, centerpieces and pew markers in red and pink with touches of light green. They were beautiful in the space as the color popped against the white background of the table linens. After dinner, Steve toasted his new wife with heartfelt words of love before sharing a touching dance with his mother. Following the wedding the couple will spend a few days in Spain before heading off to Greece for a 2 week honeymoon.

I'm so truly happy for Steve and Stephanie that they had the day they dreamed of back when we first met. They were a great couple to work with and I wish them many years of happiness, patience, love and understanding.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Tania Sones and her 2nd shooter Christa Bosco (I'll be working with Christa in September on another wedding) at yesterday's wedding. Here are some of the great shots Tania took of the happy couple.
