Christina & Cole

There is a particular kind of couple that makes a wedding photographer’s job feel effortless. They move through the day with grace and good humor, completely unbothered by anything outside of their control, fully present in every single moment. Christina and Cole are that couple. And their wedding day at The Belle of Blue Bell was a beautiful reflection of exactly who they are!

Christina got ready at the venue, which set a calm, connected tone for the morning. The Belle of Blue Bell is a stunning property in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, and having the getting-ready moments unfold right there meant the whole day had a natural, unhurried flow. When the time came, Cole waited outside for his first look.

Christina and Cole chose to read personal vows to each other privately before their ceremony. No guests or audience, just their own words exchanged in the quiet of the morning. Throughout the morning, there were patches of rain, but these two were completely unfazed. They made the most of their time outside with the biggest smiles on their faces the whole time.

The ceremony took place in a church nearby, and Christina and Cole were met with cheers from their guests as they exited for the first time as husband & wife. Back at The Belle of Blue Bell, we gathered the bridal party for portraits on the gorgeous grounds of the estate, and continued with more couples portraits throughout the afternoon.

Golden hour at The Belle of Blue Bell was magic. The clouds parted, the light turned warm and amber and low, and we stole Christina and Cole away for a few final portraits that were worth every bit of the wait. The glow of that sunset was genuinely stunning, and the couple was radiant in it! Their party in the venue’s ballroom was just as fun as these two, and it was a joy to capture.
