Stephanie + Brandon: A New Year’s Eve Wedding | Waldenwoods Wedding Film

I’ve been so excited to film this gorgeous New Year’s Eve wedding since pretty much the very first email that Stephanie sent me asking about filming her and Brandon’s Waldenwoods wedding, and I remember thinking that I knew we’d get along when she mentioned in her first email how much she loves dogs. And I was right! P.S. Keep an eye out in their film for their custom cake topper of their dog, Amos 😍. So stinking cute!

Seriously, working with these two felt like working with old friends, and from the moment I arrived until the moment I left, I had a blast capturing their New Year’s Eve wedding. Both Stephanie and Brandon are just the sweetest and, throughout the whole day, it was very clear that they both have hearts of gold. I lost track of how many times they thanked all of their vendors throughout the day for being there. On a day that’s all about them, they were thinking of and grateful for everyone around them. Something that shows so much about who they are together.

It doesn’t get much better than a New Year’s Eve Wedding!

Couple that with the fun that automatically comes with a New Year’s Eve wedding, Stephanie and Brandon’s Waldenwoods wedding was definitely one of my favorites in 2018. Even though it was rainy and cold, these two absolutely glowed all day long because they were just so happy to be getting married. And that’s what it’s all about. There’s nothing that I love more than seeing two people so madly in love and ready to start their life together. 

Stephanie and Brandon, thank you so much for letting me be a part of your big day. May you always be as blissfully happy as you were on your wedding day and while ringing in 2019 full of love and happiness.
