The Ashford Estate Wedding | Jessie & Nick

Congratulations, Jessie and Nick! This summer, they hosted a classic wedding day at the Ashford Estate. It was filled with the most beautiful blush pink, champagne, and ivory color palette and some truly sweet moments. I am so happy I was able to be with Jessie and Nick as they celebrated their next chapter with their family and friends. 

Ashford Estate Wedding

Located in Allentown, NJ, the Ashford Estate is one of the most elegant venue options for wedding days. The main house is simply stunning – with balconies, a beautiful “floating” gazebo, and lake. It’s perfect if you’re dreaming of a classic New Jersey wedding, like Jessie and Nick’s wedding day. Jessie prepared with her bridesmaids before meeting Nick along the waterfront for their first look. Nick was absolutely blown away by Jessie’s bridal look – and I don’t blame him at all! She was stunning!!!! During their first look, they exchanged their own vows privately, which I just loved. We even captured a few photos with their mini doodle pup, Finn. He totally stole the show in his tux! 

The rest of Jessie and Nick’s wedding day at Ashford Estate felt so elegant. They held their ceremony by the stunning stone fireplace at the estate. It looked incredible with lots of greenery around the white beams and so much natural light from the big windows. I honestly think the natural light at the estate might be one of my favorite parts about wedding days here!

Elegant NJ Wedding Reception

When the ceremony was over, Jessie, Nick and I headed to the ballroom for a quick reveal and some portraits of them together. I like doing this with couples so that we can capture their details and vision – plus a few more romantic portraits of them together  – before all of the guests arrive. The ballroom has incredible floor-to-ceiling windows so we had the best light to capture Jessie and Nick dancing around the floor and stealing some kisses. Jessie and Nick brought even more greenery and ivory roses into the space – and it looked amazing all night long! 

Congratulations, Jessie and Nick! Your day was beautiful and I know that you’re going to have a long life together filled with lots of love and laughter!
