Today, I’ll be sharing photos from Carly and Ben’s Spiaggia wedding. Crazy things sometimes happen on wedding days. For example, sometimes you lose the groom’s pants on the morning of the wedding. You call the front desk, you call the alternations place, you have friends searching the floors of the floors of the hotel to see if they got dropped, and you have yet more friends shopping downtown to buy more pants. And then, after all that, you find the pants at the bottom of the dark closet. Fortunately, this was probably the only thing to go wrong on Carly and Ben’s wedding day, and the whole situation was resolved well before the ceremony! And except for the mystery of the disappearing pants, Carly and Ben had a lovely wedding day with a ceremony at Holy Name Cathedral and a ceremony at Spiaggia. Let’s get to the wedding photos!
Carly got ready at the classic Drake Hotel, across the street from Spiaggia.
Carly and Ben didn’t see each other before the ceremony, opting to wait until the beginning of the ceremony at Holy Name Cathedral.
After the ceremony, we jumped onto the trolley to grab a few wedding party portraits!
And then, it was off to Spiaggia for the reception.
Time for the dance party!
Congratulations again Carly and Ben! Thank you so much for letting me be a part of your Spiaggia wedding day. I had a great time working with you, your friends, and your families, and I wish you all the best! You can contact me here if you’re interested in working together.
