The Amber Room: Danbury, CT: Kristina & Lou's Wedding Story
Thursday June 10, 2010

We started the day with Kristina and her girls as they were finishing up getting ready in the bridal suite at theThe Amber Room Colonnade in Danbury. Amidst champagne toasts and last minute make-up and hair touch-ups, they chatted away and reminisced. Once the time came for Kristina to put on her gown, she had plenty of help from her friends and family who made sure everything was just right.

The ceremony was originally supposed to take place outside on the grounds but a crazily strong wind storm meant a change of plans. It still took place outside, but with the protection of an awning, which meant nothing was blowing around and everyone could actually hear the exchange of vows instead of the howling of the wind. Right after the ceremony we took a few minutes with just Kristina and Lou, giving them the opportunity to take in the fact that they were now officially husband and wife.

They kicked off the reception with their first dance to a song by Kristina's favorite band, Dave Matthews. It was a particularly sweet moment with their friends and family gathered around the floor, holding one another and cheering Kristina and Lou on. After dinner the party really got into full gear - the dance floor opened and the photo booth was hopping. They had so many props for the booth that many times during the night you couldn't really tell which was which, boas on the dance floor, dance moves in the photo booth. It was definitely one fun party - exactly what Kristina and Lou had hoped it would be.
