Cincinnati Wedding Photographers – The Renauds – Stacey & Ryan’s Wedding
Stacey & Ryan’s wedding will always be one of the most memorable weddings for us. Wedding days are always sweet days, but THIS wedding will forever be one of the sweetest to us. Matt & I value relationships above anything else, so when a family basically adopts us for the day, it’s “like Christmas morning” for us, hah! Stacey & Ryan’s families are the most genuine, laid back, servant-hearted, FUN, and welcoming people! We felt right at home, right away. Growing up, Grandma’s house was always the place to be for family events, and that’s exactly where the getting ready took place for this winter wedding day. (Stacey, I know we’ve told you over and over again, but we l-o-v-e your Grandma!) We were welcomed with a cup of coffee, hugs, and food. It’s so amazing to see a house full of family who really love each other…this Grandma’s legacy! Grandpa’s too, of course. đ We arrived on this wedding day to a smiley bride surrounded by friends and family. It was a morning full of laughs, tears, more laughs – you get it. I cannot get over these shots of Stacey getting ready! First, let’s talk about her dress. This lovely bride found her dream dress at Hyde Park Bridal. Such a unique dress! It was “made for” Stacey. I could go on and on about the moment Stacey’s bridesmaids and family saw her for the first time…sigh. Thankfully, photos speak for themselves because I have no words!! What a precious moment between Stacey and her Grandpa. đ I may have shed a few tears myself (“shocker”, for those of you who know me well). Here’s another thing we loved about this wedding. The ceremony was just for family. It’s so great when everyone can hear the couple say their vows – we were right upfront close to the “action”! Just a sweet, small, intimate time at the gorgeous St. Bernard Church . Loved it! The new Mr & Mrs took us on a little field trip around Cincy for their photos. Time of our lives! We love when couples express excitement and have ideas for their photos. It’s their day, after all! We went to everywhere… Turns out, you can find Santa at Washington Park in Over the Rhine. We also ventured into the Cincinnati Music Hall . Stunning! And along the riverfront were some of our very favorite photos of the day. That light, that bridge…photographer’s dream. Stacey & Ryan were super easy and fun to work with. They’re totally crazy about each other, so that helps. đ These two were so upbeat and adventurous with their photos! It wasn’t the warmest day either. I’ve gotta give a shout out to their bridal party…this crew was such a blast! Super supportive, fun, easygoing – just good people. Let me say a word or two about Stacey & Ryan’s reception venue. Longworth Hall Event Center is legit. This was our first time shooting there and the experience was incredible! It was originally the Baltimore and Ohio Freight Terminal, converted into an event center. Just the coolest place! Of course, Stacey and her family chose beautiful winter decorations and details. I must give a shout out to Ryan’s mom who did a phenomenal job on the wedding cake, it was delicious! This celebration was full of joy, tears, fun (and funny) moments. Just the BEST party. I’m always a sucker for “first dances”. Adorable with this family! Sound Station Productions kept the night moving with some fun tunes. You know it’s gonna be a good time when the grandparents hit the dance floor first! Stacey & Ryan had a blast dancing the night away together with family and friends. đ Here’s to a lifetime of friendship, adventure, and love for Stacey & Ryan. We love you guys!!
Thanks to all of the amazing vendors who made Stacey & Ryan’s wedding day beautiful…
