Somehow, we always get really lucky and have couples that love to have a good time. Emily, Bill and both of their families were no exception. They had us laughing the entire time and their wedding photos prove it! Their Phoenix Cincinnati wedding was simply wonderful and we’re excited to share some highlights with you all.
Emily & Bill’s wedding day kicked-off at The Hampton Inn downtown Cincinnati with a revolving door of family and friends coming to visit them while getting ready. It was so much fun to see and feel the excitement everyone had to celebrate with Emily & Bill! Before heading out to the first look, Emily & her dad shared some sweet moments together. His reaction to seeing Emily for the first time in her dress just melted our hearts!
One of our favorite things about The Hampton Inn is that there are so many amazing photo locations in the hotel and just outside of it. Emily & Bill shared their first look in an alley across the street; yes, in an alley, and it was amazing!
After the first look, the bridal party hopped on the limo bus to take photos around downtown Cincinnati before heading over to St. Francis de Sales for the ceremony. If you haven’t been in St. Francis de Sales, do yourself a favor and see it. It is absolutely gorgeous!
Once they officially said, “I DO,” everyone headed to The Phoenix to celebrate the new Mr. & Mrs.!
We were absolutely honored to be a part of Emily & Bill’s Phoenix Cincinnati wedding and we wish them all the happiness in the world!
