Congratulations to Meghan and Ben! They hosted a romantic and seriously beautiful Willowwood Arboretum wedding day. It was everything that Meghan and Ben envisioned – ethereal, eclectic and romantic… all in these stunning New Jersey gardens. It was such a wonderful day and I’m so honored that I could be with them to celebrate beside them and their family. 

Summer Willowwood Arboretum Wedding

When Meghan reached out about me being her wedding photographer, she began to describe their wedding day. The main goal was to design a fun wedding day that felt like an elevated garden party. After a church ceremony in New Vernon, the group moved to Willowwood Arboretum for a tented wedding reception. Dinner was served family style – including delicious wine flowing and passing plates. It felt intimate and just wonderful. Meghan loves bright colors, and they didn’t shy away from them at all. There were lots of pops of color throughout the party (and her bouquet!) that really brought fun vibes to the party.  The smiles were all so real and the laughter was loud… everything you want on a wedding day! 

I personally loved finding the perfect spots to photograph Meghan and Ben around the property before dinner. Willowwood is truly a beautiful location! Meghan’s bright bouquet popped perfectly against the greens around them and they looked stunning together. One thing I’ll always remember about Meghan and Ben’s wedding day is how happy everyone was – especially the newlyweds. 

Congratulations again Meghan and Ben. Your wedding day was beautiful – and inspiring. I don’t think I’ll ever forget this celebration.
