Caroline and Alberto – The Perfect COVID Halloween Wedding.
In late September 2020, I got an email from Caroline asking if I was available a few weeks for a small wedding on Halloween. Normally, I take these holidays off to go out with my daughter, but with COVID sticking around, trick or treating was being done only inside your house. I should also mention that Halloween is one of my favorite days, so it was an instant yes from me.
I met up with Caroline at her hotel as she was getting ready. Alberto was getting ready at another location and was meeting us at their venue, Opal 28. Caroline’s mother was also there helping her get ready.
And Caroline’s dress! Look at her dress! The silver and the sparkles was so gorgeous.
After Caroline was ready, I booked it over to Opal 28 and met up with Alberto to get him all ready for his first look. The venue has a perfect little courtyard for an intimate session.
With the wedding being during the global pandemic, it was a small affair. So we all tucked inside for a their ceremony with just their closest family members.
With this being a small wedding, we quickly breezed through the family photos. It’s nice and easy because everyone is already in the same room and easy to direct.
I then snuck the couple outside to enjoy some quiet time to themselves….and the fall colors! Opal 28 has a little park right around the corner, so it was the perfect spot for some quiet time.
Back at the reception, the party was getting started! Well, as much as we could have had during the restrictions.
Check out their cute details! I had to keep the Halloween theme going with the detail images.
Next to the ceremony room, was where a smaller reception was held. A dance floor was setup fro these two to celebrate their first dance together.
And we ended at them sitting down and enjoying this amazing dessert spread.
