Wedding at Waters Edge at Centerport | Angela & Steven

When Angela and Steve chose us to photograph their wedding at the Water’s Edge, we were so excited. It was our first time photographing at this venue, and it didn’t disappoint.

Angela started her day at a family friend’s waterfront home. The house, with its large windows and peaceful water views, made for a great place to get ready. Surrounded by her friends and family, Angela looked stunning as she got into her dress. The relaxed atmosphere set the tone for a wonderful day. After an emotional first look with her dad, we set off for the venue.

Angela and Steve’s first look took place at Water’s Edge in a quiet spot overlooking Mill Pond. They shared a private moment and exchanged personal vows, making it a meaningful part of their day. The fall colors and water views created a perfect setting for photos. Water’s Edge offered fantastic spots for photos. The dock, with its rustic look and scenic views, was perfect for capturing intimate moments. The vibrant fall leaves added a unique touch to their gallery.

Their outdoor ceremony had the pond and beautiful foliage as a backdrop, with soft sunlight and crisp autumn air. Angela and Steve’s vows brought a lot of emotion to the moment, making it truly special.

After the ceremony, the reception kicked off indoors. Stage 39 by Hank Lane kept the energy high, and the dance floor stayed full all night. From the first dance to the final song, it was a celebration to remember.

Angela and Steve’s wedding at Water’s Edge was everything a fall wedding should be: warm, colorful, and full of joy. From the relaxed morning at the waterfront home to the lively reception, it was a day filled with love and celebration. We were honored to capture their story and look forward to returning to Water’s Edge for future weddings.
