McLoone’s Pier House, Long Branch NJ Beach Wedding Photographer {Megan and Dave}

Megan and Dave are a beautiful couple inside and out. Not only do they share a love for athletics and health (you can check our her blog here), but they make each other undeniably happy. The way Dave looks at Megan is priceless. And the way Megan smiles and laughs while in Dave’s presence is a joy to witness. It is easy to see that these two are a perfect fit.

Megan and Dave became husband and wife at the Church of the Precious Blood  in Monmouth Beach, NJ and celebrated with family and friends at McLoone’s Pier House in Long Branch, NJ. McLoone’s Pier House is located right on the boardwalk and their reception room overlooked the ocean and beach with a gorgeous view of the New Jersey Shore. There was no better setting for Megan and Dave’s beach theme wedding and their carefree personalities. Though there was rain at times, we still had the opportunity to go for walks in the sand,  walk along the water, and even under the boardwalk beneath McLoone’s pier.

Megan and Dave it was an honor and pleasure to witness your love and photograph your wedding day. We wish you a lifetime of happiness! Ccongratulations!

Megan used her Grandmother’s handkerchief as her something borrowed to wrap around the stems of her bridal bouquet.

It was an emotional moment when Megan’s parents read the letter she wrote to them.

Megan and Dave also wrote emotional letters to each other which they read the morning of their wedding.

Megan and Dave saw each other for the first time on their wedding day to the sounds of the waves crashing on the sand on the breezy beach.

The First Look! There’s nothing a like a groom’s expression when he sees his bride.

Dave and his groomsmen were sharp in their Dante Zeller wear.

Megan and her bridesmaids were beautiful in their own: J. Crew dresses.

All the lovely florals were provided by Petal Beach.

Officially Mr. & Mrs.!

After Megan and Dave’s wedding ceremony, we headed over to their reception at the scenic McLoone’s Pier House in Long Branch, NJ and some time for a few photos under the boardwalk.

Piece O Cake carried out their beach theme in the delicious wedding cake.

Laura and Jenn of Pretty Little Details coordinated all the details of Megan & Dave’s wedding day beautifully.

The first dance.

Everyone was having a great time celebrating with Megan & Dave to the sounds of DJ Anthony Paglucci of A List Night Life

In the absence of the rain Dave was hoping for on his wedding day (he was hoping for a shot in the rain like we did at Emily & Noah’s wedding last year) we made our own magic and recreated a similar look with sand. Thank you Laura & Jenn at Pretty Little Details for your assistance behind the scenes!
