Naomi & Aldrin exchanged vows last weekend in front of friends and family at a Chapel on Fort Eustis Military base. It was a beautifully warm day for mid December and perfect for a wedding. Friends and family gathered from all over the United States to witness these two start their new chapter as a married couple.
Aldrin proposed to Naomi at the Luray Caverns in September and shortly after, we met them for their Engagement Session at the Lion's Bridge. They are both are so incredibly laid back, easy going and so enjoyable to have in front of the lens. They needed very little help posing and everything came so easily to them. Even on their big day, where things can be stressful, they were so calm and collected. Their beautiful wedding day was a true testimony to how amazing they both are as people, how in love they are with each other, and why so many people choose to keep them close.
Their wedding day was filled with incredible memories from the beautiful ceremony to the fun filled reception. Together, these two created such a memorable day for everyone involved, from the oldest to the youngest in attendance.
This first page in their new story together is such a beautiful start to their new journey as a Mr. & Mrs. Magalong.
Naomi & Aldrin opted for a first look, which I always love! This truly gives the couple a private moment to enjoy together before the craziness of the wedding day starts. They have a moment to share their excitement, nerves and to take in the importance of the day before walking down the aisle. They both were so nervous but as soon as Aldrin turned around to see his bride in her wedding dress, they both smiled and any nerves disappeared.
The couple chose to have their grandmothers serve as flower grannies in the wedding, which I absolutely adored! This was such a creative way to include family members! Naomi was escorted down the aisle by her father, as Aldrin waited to take her hand and exchange vows in front of those closest to them. It was so beautiful!
After their ceremony, we quickly gathered for formal photos hoping to beat the rain. Although it started to mist, everyone celebrated the new couple and smiled for photos before heading off to the reception to dance the night away. The wedding party kept things entertaining for sure!
Their reception was filled with a photo booth, dancing, trivia, prizes and lots of laughter. This was such a perfect way to celebrate the couple!
As the night was coming to a close, Aldrin's Lola shared a dance with everyone on the dance floor. It was such a touching moment to see everyone enjoying the final moments before the couple exited through sparklers to say goodbye.
Congratulations to Naomi & Aldrin!
