Samantha + Nick = Married!

We photographed this sweet couple’s wedding at the Columbia Club in November and had a blast with them! Sam’s dress was STUNNING (hello couture gorgeousness!!) and their venue was the perfect, elegant setting for their big day! We were able to take some beautiful pics in the lobby and then hop outside to the monument for some fun photos with the wedding party. Santa even stopped by on a motorcycle so we got a few photos with him! LOL They had a gorgeous ceremony on the 3rd floor overlooking the monument after sunset and then Jim Cerone got the party started and the dance floor was packed all night long! Thanks for a fun time you guys!

In Samantha’s words…

1. How did he propose?

“Nick proposed in San Antonio on the Riverwalk next to a beautiful waterfall. In fact, we had passed by that very location several times during the day. I really wanted a picture together in front, but there was always a crowd. After dinner, we headed back to the location. It was finally clear & I joked that I’m sure it’s a popular proposal spot. At that point, Nick got down on one knee. I actually thought he was joking & laughed telling him to get up. Of course Nick was trying to get the ring from his pocket, but I still kept laughing at him thinking he was taking the joke too far. When he actually got the ring out, I was in complete shock. At first I didn’t even remember to say “YES”. I wanted to know every detail of who knew & how he managed to hide this from me. Of course I said Yes eventually! 🙂 The best part was that the Riverwalk has tour boats & people were cheering & helping to take photos of us after it happened. We got to put on a little show for the tourists!”

2. What was your favorite wedding moment?

“Is everything an acceptable answer?! I’d say my dad’s speech. It was perfectly thought out & really showcased our love. He nailed it. ALSO Jim playing ‘This is Indiana’ & everyone singing along & dancing. Our group was filled with love.”
