Shannon & Andrew's Wedding in Skaneateles, NY at St. James' & The Skaneateles Country Club.

Here's a little sneak of all of the fun we had at Shannon & Andrew's wedding! Hope you enjoy!

A few weeks ago I spent the day with Shannon & Andrew for their wedding day out in Skaneateles NY and boy oh boy was it the most beautiful place I have been to in a long time! I love that they chose the spot where she grew up, and he proposed to her to begin their journey in marriage together. It was very romantic and reminded me of a scene right out of the movies! 

We started the day off at Shannon's parents house getting ready with her 3 sisters, bridesmaids, Mom & Dad and 3 adorable little children! I met Shannon back in college when I dormed with her sisters who are triplets. She is charismatic and really fun loving! I can tell that they really love each other which is so important! 

After getting ready we hopped into the limo bus to probably one of the cutest little churches on one of the most beautiful lakes I have ever seen, Saint James' Episcopal Church. It was beautifully decorated, very inviting and the Priest was hilarious! The ceremony was really nice and you could see the love between the two of them! 

Afterwards we took portraits on the lake and then headed over to the town. We were allowed access onto a beautiful little restaurant boat that was parked by the dock. Then we took portraits in the town gazebo and headed towards the reception at The Skaneatlas Country Club.  Right there is the city is where Andrew proposed to Shannon and I thought it was just too adorable! Before we headed out Shannon got a great little foot rub too, which is always a bonus! 

We left the town and headed to the Country club, and it was gorgeous! The view from the reception and the cocktail hour was just stunning! We had a great time, laughing, dancing and partying the night away! Thank you Shannon & Andrew for having us on your beautiful picturesque wedding day! I'm looking forward to many more memories with you two! LIVE.LAUGH.PHOTO. <3 Ariel
