Humbled Eyes Photography | Delaware wedding photographer rockin out weddings in Philadelphia, Wilmington, Maryland, Virginia and beyond.

Casey contacted me after seeing Joanna and Ryan’s Valley Gardens engagement pictures!  Joanna was showing her the engagement pictures, and I guess Casey liked them!  Come to find out I used to hang out with them back in the day…..”which was a Wednesday by the way.”  Any Dane Cook fans out there?  Delaware is so small that I often run into people I know at weddings.  Growing up in Wilmington really helps the wedding business…many times I get emails saying, “Hey you shot so and so’s wedding!”  Also on top of that…..there were two other brides interested in Casey and Brian’s wedding day, too!  So I emailed Casey telling her and she emailed me back in about two hours and told me she would be calling me in the morning to finalize everything!

Anywhooo…it was time for Casey and Brian’s engagement pictures!  We met up at Gibraltar in Delaware and the fun began.  We walked around the Gardens at Gibraltar and chit chatted about wedding planning and the old days!

So, I get a call from Christy at about 3:00 on Friday….a night before her Saturday wedding.  The conversation went something like this, “Hi Rob…what are you doing at 5:00 tonight?  I say, I’ll be at the office, why?  Christy says, you want to shoot our ceremony on the beach at 5:00 tonight?  I replied, LET’S DO IT!”  So the night before Christy and Tim’s wedding day, and before Hurricane Hanna showed up….we headed out to Lewes Beach for their ceremony!  Despite Hanna on the horizon, Christy and Tim were relaxed and happy.  So they had their dream beach wedding the Friday before Hanna crashed their wedding!  Another funny thing is that Christy’s dad was a wedding photographer back in the day and said, “Rob let me know if you need any help with anything.  I quickly replied, “Dad….you don’t need to worry about a thing….just enjoy your daughter’s wedding!”

Now the actual wedding day started, and everyone seemed so relaxed despite all the changes.

The guys had suited up in old Macy plastic garment bags and ran back and forth to pick things up and drop off at the room at Canal Inn.

Christy decided to head over to the main building at Canal Inn and get ready in one of the other rooms.  This was a great idea….seeing that Hanna was raging!!

We had a little break in the rain, but, her wind was still gusting!

After Plan A….there came Plan B and Plan C!  So, they had their beach ceremony on Lewes Beach the night before, the 2nd ceremony at Canal Inn and the reception at Christy’s father’s house!

LOL!!!

They danced so much that the floor was flexing…talk about a house party!

Have fun in Napa Valley!

Vendor info:

Make My Day Event Planning did an amazing job (as usual) coordinating and re-coordinating….and re-re-coordinating this wedding!

Silver Sound kept the party going until the last song!

Nage catering had some delicious food….again!

I met Daniuska and Yonnell, for the first time, to shoot some engagement pictures!  Dani initially didn’t want engagement pictures….but, I was able to get her on board with the idea.  I explained that her wedding day should not be the first time to work with her wedding photographer!  Well, we walked the streets of Wilmington chit chatting, laughing and snapping some photos.  Now that we know each other better….their JC Melrose Country Club wedding will be no biggy.

Jenn and Dan’s wedding day was finally here, and I knew they would be fun after taking their Newark Delaware engagement pictures!  Their wedding day weather was perfect, and everything fell into place perfectly.  Everyone headed over to Saint Mary’s in Wilmington Delaware to finalize preparations and get married!!!  St Mary’s is a small older church, and the ceremony was awesome.  After the ceremony we headed over to The Patio at Archmere for the reception.  The guests had a blast, the food was wonderful and the music was great!

Jenn was showing off for the camera!

Jenn was smiling ear to ear so much during the ceremony.
