YellowBird Wedding

because simple is beautiful

April 24th was a lovely spring day. If you could be outside, you were lucky. BUT if you could be inside Pearl Street for the wedding of Erin and Jim, you were even luckier. This was a couple that I found adorable the minute I met them, and I was excited for this day. After …

April 3rd was still a chilly spring day, but everything was perfect inside the VFW post on Delaware Avenue in Kenmore. Shawn didn’t seem nervous at all. He’s a cool, calm, and collected kind of guy.

March 27th wasn’t exactly a typical end-of-winter day. Slush & rain were prominent, but the energy at the Avanti Mansion was like a summer’s day party! Everyone was so excited for Hayley and Virgilio’s wedding! We just hoped Virgilio would get there soon since he was taking part of his police officer’s exam that day! …

I know some of you had a love-filled Christmas the included a heart-felt proposal. I can’t wait to hear from you in 2015!!!

I was a little bummed out on October 18th because it was my last wedding of the year. I decided to put a positive spin on it and give lots of love to Cindy and Barry for their day. Since then, one more wedding has been added to the year, so it worked out for everyone …

When I first met Tami and Art, they  loved kidding around about how long they had been together and how it was taking a long time to get down that aisle. After a decade together, they decided to finally make it official (and make the dogs legitimate) by getting married on October 4th at the …

This fall has been unbelievable. And you couldn’t be any happier if September was the month you chose to have your outdoor wedding. It’s always a gamble in New York, but on September 27th, it was truly a perfect day. After leaving my first wedding, I headed to Chestnut Ridge to their perfect little casino to share in …
