Jenifer and Matt's Wedding! Melbourne, FL 12.28.08

One of my last weddings of 2008 was awesome! Jenifer and Matt, who live in Boston, married just a few days after Christmas. It was a great way to transition from the Holidays into New Year's! Heather Ahrens and I traveled to the lovely East Coast of Florida to Melbourne where we met Jenifer and the whole family at a gorgeous home right on the water. There we documented Jenifer's getting ready and also the most precious moment of her and Matt seeing each other for the first time. They chose to see each other beforehand because after that, we had a good amount of family photos to shoot and there was going to be no time after the ceremony to take them. Jenifer's dress was a beautiful Maggie Sottero gown and I loved the veil she chose to where. Not to mention an absolutely breath-taking ring that was her Grandmothers! And yes, it's real!(see below)
The ceremony was held at a nearby Temple and then reception at the Indian River Colony Club. Jenifer and Matt have known each other most of their lives and as the Rabbi explained, this was such a wonderful thing when they realized they wanted to be together. After the blessings, toasts, and speeches, Jenifer and Matt and the rest of their friends and family danced the night away. It was truly such a pleasure working with you both! Congrats Jenifer and Matt!! xo - Abby
