While I was photographing Alex and Andrew’s wedding last weekend, my associates Jocelyn and Marianne were down in South Jersey capturing Dalal and Michael’s wedding and I’m so excited to share it with you today!
Dalal and Michael met while clerking together for different judges after both attending different law schools. An e-mail went out at work that there were “Free Donuts” available for breakfast in Mike’s Judge’s chambers. Dalal immediately ran up to grab some and that was where she met Mike. It was love at first bite, they said, and they instantly connected. They ended up officially dating on October 24, 2017 and tied the knot exactly three years later on October 24, 2020!
I remember a few months ago when Dalal reached out about the possible effects the pandemic might have on their wedding. Like many other couples this year, she and Michael had to deal with a bunch of “what-if” possible scenarios, and ultimately, they ended up switching their venue so that they could have an outdoor reception.
These newlyweds got ready at the Seaview Hotel before heading out to their church ceremony. Dalal looked beautiful in her long-sleeved dress and was so excited to see Michael. There were lots of smiles exchanged between them during their ceremony, and when it was over, they were so joyful! Their portrait session was held on the grounds of the Seaview Hotel, as was the reception. Their Seaview Hotel wedding day was elegant, filled with hydrangeas and greenery. My associates Jocelyn and Marianne truly enjoyed capturing this wedding – enjoy this preview.
Congratulations, Dalal and Michael! You made such a beautiful bride and groom – all the best in your marriage! Enjoy your Florida getaway!
