Templeton Landing Wedding

Filed in weddings shot by Ayres Photography on April 26, 2021 at

There’s just something about Emily and Sam that had us absolutely loving everything about them and their special day. If you take a scroll through this post, we’re confident that you’ll know exactly what we mean. Maybe it’s how purely and honestly they look at each other. Maybe it’s because of how clearly and genuinely they’re both so loved by all of their family and friends. Maybe it was just something in the air that day (but we’re betting it wasn’t just that). Whatever it was, we’re so, so happy that we were there to capture it all.

Emily: “Sam and I lived in the same dorm during our freshman year and had some mutual friends. We all ended up hanging out one night. Two days later the large group turned into a group of 4 … and soon it was just me and Sam. It wasn’t long before the two of us were inseparable.“

Emily: “The night Sam proposed, we went out to dinner at a nice Italian restaurant right on the East River. Afterward, we walked along the river a bit until Sam found the perfect secluded area with views of both the Manhattan and Brooklyn bridges, and got down on one knee! After many hugs and kisses, laughter and tears, and a few photos to commemorate the moment, we went to a nearby bar to celebrate with a glass of champagne!“

Emily: “We’re each other’s best friends, and we want to share all of life’s finest moments together.“

Emily: “For us, family is #1. We also both value our friendships, having fun experiences, and our careers (mainly because they make those fun experiences possible).“
