Meet John and Gloriana!
These two are some of the sweetest people I have ever met. From the moment the day started Gloriana began making sure I didn’t need anything and I can’t count how many times throughout the day her and John each asked me if I needed anything and if I was having a good time. I was blown away by their constant need to make sure everyone else was having a great time!!! Not to mention the Thank You email I got at like 8:00Am the next day from Gloriana!…SERIOUSLY? Girl you are too much!!!
And a great time was had by all….clearly!! Some of my favorite shots from this wedding are the dance shots from the reception where you can truly see everyone coming together and just being in the moment. From John’s Irish family teaching Gloriana’s father to Irish step dance, to John’s mother dancing with Gloriana on the dance floor….I loved seeing these two old world families come together and celebrate love!!!
Thank you John and Gloriana for allowing Beyond The Lens to be such a big part of your wedding day and for sharing the moment with us! You both are beautiful people inside and out and I know you will be truly happy for many years to come!!!!
I also would like to thank Dorian of Dorian Mode Photography for once again provide superb duel coverage as my esteemed side kick!
So without further chit chat on my end…here are the pictures








And of course some coverage of the guys from Dorian…complete with some really great detail of The Church of Notre Dame in NYC






Here are shts from Dorian of the speakers during the ceremony.

And I love this shot I got of this very sweet moment of Gloirana reciting her vows to John.


We then headed over the the Conservatory in Central Park for some portraits. Dorian’s shot is on the left mine is on the right….

Love Love Love this shot! We’re in the middle of
portraits and this little dude just walks right up to me, gives me this look, and then walks away! Clearly he would of liked to of been informed on my timeline and how long I may need the bridal party for!

Below are two shots Dorian snagged of the beautiful little flower girls. Both nieces of John’s and complete with little Irish accents!









Some more details from both Dorian and I…



I could not decide between which of these shots I liked more, so I just added both of them! Gloriana and her family are clearly very close and it was apparent several times throughout the day especially as Gloriana danced with her father!
And I could not get over how much John favors his mother….SERIOUSLY???

I love this shot Dorian got during the reception….


And of course some coverage of the reception events!

Including some cake cutting shots! The two on the left are Dorian’s.

I have to say that the dessert spread that The Surf Club puts out is pretty intense!

And of course…the ring shot!
