Leanne and Ted at Rosecliff, Part Two

Posted by Mariah:

To think we almost bagged this second location! We had so much fun in the foliage that we thought we might not need another locale... plus the wind was picking up... plus it was getting dark... plus we were running out of time...
Should we do it?
Of course we should!



I thought it would be kind of a shame for Leanne and Ted not to have a little Newport - ocean action in their backgrounds. Luckily, they agreed.






I smell panorama!!! Trish took this amazing photo. Talk about dramatic.



A few more quick shots of Leanne before we are blown away!







Time to head back to Rosecliff...




It's starting to rain again but we manage to squeeze out the last couple bits of blue light.




I love the personal touches... nothing like having your own brand of wine.




The wine bottles and corks added a super personalized and great touch to the cocktail hour.





The ballroom was spectacular.





Yum.





Nothing washes down cake like a delicious pineapple libation.





The photolounge was in the house... here are Leanne and Ted giving it a test run.





How adorable are these mini- fish and chips? Melissa tells me this is how they
wrap them up in the UK.




Amazing centerpieces by Stoneblossom.












Apple green and brown were Leanne's colors.





Getting ready for the big intros...





Ta Da! Mr and Mrs!!!!






A romantical first dance...












So sweet.






A couple of great toasts by our maid of honor and best man...











Ted's brothers...





We tried all day to get a couple of Snap! signature ring shots... but it never quite came together. Trish remembered toward the end of the evening and got not one, but two fantastic ring photos.





Not sure which I love better, but this one is pretty sweet.





I was busy minding the photolounge (and trust me, it needed A LOT of supervision).
Meanwhile sneaky Trish got these amazing photos... I think she's envisioning the last page in the album... that's her move after all.





Again, can't decide which... maybe the first one because the reflection of the lanterns on the wet stairs is so cool. Oh well, luckily I don't have to choose, that will be up to Ted and Leanne.
So cute.
I think it's safe to say it was a pretty magical evening.
We love witnessing the beginning of a new family!
Everyone danced into the wee hours... I think they were pretty sad to see it end.
Leanne and Ted- enjoy Aruba! Thanks for including us in such a beautiful day!

Leanne and Ted at Rosecliff, Part One

Posted by Mariah:



I was only Trish's low-ly assistant at Leanne & Ted's fantastic wedding, but since Trish is busy whittling albums for the holiday season... I'll be posting these photos on her behalf! Hurray- I love blogging!!!
Leanne and the girls got ready at the Chanler... such a fun place for photos. The day started out raining, and Leanne sat patiently in the window having her makeup done (by Miss Robin McAloon of course) and watching the drizzle. Meanwhile, Trish is busy with all the details. Isn't this shot of her dress so dramatic?







This one is also so beautiful- love it.





Leanne's delicate and detailed veil.





Henry is watching over the bouquet. The bridesmaids got a kick out of this one.









Our two MOH's getting a little lesson in veil application.








Voila!











Dress time- it's coming in handy having two MOH's.










Leanne is having the best time!












We think the rain has stopped so there's time for just a few pics outside before we dash off to the church. My view.













And Trish's view...









Hurray for sunshine!






It was a pretty wet on the ground... and we didn't want to get Leanne soaked, so Trish hung her dress on the gate latch.







A quick pic with mom and dad. Love the MOB gown!





Trish workin' the photo- action.







This bouquet was so fun and big and perfectly round!







All the gals... many of which are practically professional bridesmaids!







A super sassy portrait of Leanne. Isn't she gorgeous?!
A side note: I love the berries.








Hurrying into church... a few minutes late, but no matter, you can't start without the bride!







Leanne and her dad.













Married!







Love these pretty green bouquets... by Stoneblossom.







It was pouring during the receiving line... but now it isn't so we are dashing off to do photos at some new secret locations...oooohhhh.








Right? How fun is this wall? Trish spotted on one of her scouting missions and thought it would be perfect for Leanne and Ted.







Romantical.












I love this photo of the bridal party... some of the bridesmaids were skeptical... trust ladies, trust.





Having the best time- ever!






Okay, so we stole this pose from Melissa. Leanne was very excited about this shot- hope you love it L!






Give the boys something to jump off of and you've always got a great shot.





Leanne is totally rocking the autumnal feeling in this photo.




Classic.




I scooted across the street for this one... As Trish would say, Bam! Panorama Page.




So pretty.





I won't even tell you what is so funny in this photo... okay I will, it involves a groomsman, a large stick, and Trish's backside. Pretty scandalous.





The brothers.






Leanne and the girls.






Is Trish risking life and limb in the middle of the street for a good shot or just trying to get away from that fresh groomsman?






Love the heart shapes on the fence.







Off to our second location...photo-ing is fun!





Stay tuned for some pretty dramatic & blustery photos seaside as well as all of the reception fun!
