8-8-8 Wedding @ New Jersey with Ian and Leny

Date : August 8, 2008
Church : St. Ambrose, Old Bridge NJ
Reception : The Venetian Grand Ballroom, New Jersey, USA
Photographer : Lito Q. Genilo

Ian is the brother of Dolly, our beautiful bride 7 years back. When Ian and Leny decided to tie their knot, Dolly introduced me to them. I first met them in Boracay last May 2008 where we had our engagement session.


A wonderful romance started in NAIA international airport when Ian offered his help to carry some of Leny's luggage. Ian and Lenny are both balikbayans but stay in East and West Coast respectively. When their paths crossed serendipitously at NAIA Airport, the pair hit it off, despite an awkward start: Ian pursued her, and a subsequent text messages and dinner date sparked a romantic relationship, and the rest is history.


Here are my favourites from the Wedding of Ian and Leny. They were two of the nicest people you could ever meet, such a loving couple. The day was perfect, lovely people and lovely venue.


Ian & Leny: Thank you so much for the hospitality...until next time

Detail of the brides "bible" and the rings. She is just gorgeous During the ceremony! Photo ops with Grandparents... Exhibition Time! What an absolutely beautiful bride! I absolutely adored Lenys dress! Doesn't she look beautiful? The couple had prepared a brilliant first dance. (All that hard work was worth it!) Few sweet moments... And after the ceremony, Ian and Leny snuck away with me to the St. Ambrose church Garden so that we could do another mini-session with them before returning to the cocktail hour. Infra-red shots! There are so many more I could still add - but I've got to stop somewhere ! Slideshow of the wedding photos to follow...
