What a great day! We have loved getting to know Colleen and Casey over the last year through their engagement session, and planning meetings and emails. The love shared between the two of them is tangible. We loved photographing them so much not just because they’re a beautiful couple, but because the joy and emotion stream out of them in a way that is mesmerizing.
We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful Fall day for Colleen and Casey’s wedding day to unfold. After everyone was dressed and ready, we headed out to downtown Covington in the Licking Riverside Historic District for the couple’s wedding party portraits. These two shined during their emotional First Look, and we even got a chance to get the gang up on the Roebling Bridge for a few extra portraits. Colleen and Casey were so relaxed throughout the day – and you could tell they were truly taking it all in, and enjoying every minute of their special day.
The ceremony took place at the Bellarmine Chapel on the Xavier University Campus in Cincinnati, Ohio. This quaint, little church was the perfect backdrop for these two to begin their journey together. Fr. Barry of St. Rose Parish, long time pastor of the Selzer family witnessed the wedding ceremony. He made the ceremony a joyous occasion with a few wisecrack jokes for good measure (seriously, he injected a little humor into the day).
We ended the evening a block away over at the Cintas Center with a bang and all access to the Xavier Musketeers basketball court. It was a night packed with belly laughs, smiles galore, and many happy tears. Toss in an incredible team of vendors, beautiful decor, and the most amazing cake EVER, and this was one incredible wedding day. Not to mention, Colleen and Casey win the most original first dance award for their dance to the “Twizzler Song” by Jake Speed & The Freddies.
We were so honored to document this day for them and have a front row seat to the day their forever began.
