Joy & Kevin came in from New York City to have their epic wedding in hills of Wakefield at Le Belvédère. Both of their incredible tastes in style and their all around ability to throw an epic party, made for an incredible, one-of-kind wedding. Each element of the day was curated perfectly from the minds of Joy and Kevin and through the hands of Mint Events and the staff at Le Belvédère.
I always love photographing at this beautiful venue that sits up in the hills of Wakefield. But I was especially excited to photograph this day.
Kevin rolled up in his spectacular maroon suit with his crew while Joy got ready in the beautiful Garden House. After an exciting first look and some photos, they had their ceremony overlooking the valley surrounded by their spectacularly dressed friends and family.
During the cocktails a steel pan player entertained their guests among the tall pines. But even with all of the entertainment and fun their wedding was leading up to their reception, it was during the reception that Joy and Kevin packed in some more surprises. First, it was the Michael Jackson dance that Kevin moon-walked his way into, much to the surprise and delight of his friends. He even had the hat and gloves to complete the package. But then, after starting to dance themselves, they shocked the room with a couple of Samba dancers tearing up the dance floor.
It was a wedding to remember. What a day it was, and here are the photos to prove it!
