ASSEMBLY ROOM WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

Check out our Saint Augustine wedding photography sessions for more sessions like this Assembly room wedding photography session in the area.

Through our efforts on social media we got in touch with Cassidy who was looking for a photographer and videographer. This would be our first wedding that Rachel and I would do together doing both photography and videography simultaneously. We typically recommend having a pair/team do photography and another that does videography. We understand sometimes it works for budget to pay a team and in that case we just split. One of us, Rachel would be on photos all day while I would be on video all day.

Usually it’s nice to have two people shooting special moments because things happen so quickly. Things like the first kiss can be very quick and it’s better to have 2 people capturing photo. There’s the potential to miss things, thankfully for Cassidy and Gregg and this Assembly Room wedding photography we didn’t miss anything. For their wedding we also rented a Canon 5D Mark IV which has better video capability as it can autofocus while recording.

During the time of their wedding we were at home in Colorado enjoying family, friends and the mountains. We flew out to Orlando and Rachel has family in Jacksonville so we drove up and stayed with them. While there we explored the area, did a few shoots and relaxed before the big day.

Our day started with meeting the bride and her bridesmaids at Beauty Bardot Lounge in St. Augustine, FL. The groomsmen had opted to get ready later and not have pictures of them getting ready. While there we enjoyed getting to know all the bridesmaids and share some champagne.

Once the hair and makeup was done we went over to the Assembly Room where Gregg was. Cassidy and the bridesmaids got dressed and finished the final touches once at the venue. Once they were ready, Cassidy met with Gregg for their first touch. They sat back to back in a pair of chairs and shared some laughs, touches and a bottle of their favorite liquor.

For the ceremony they had live musicians playing as the guests awaited the start of the wedding. Once everything was set they played as the bridal party walked down the aisle. The ceremony was filled with laughter, joy and even a custom kneeler that Gregg had made for the wedding. Once the ceremony had concluded we took the bridal party and had group shots in the room closest to the ceremony while guests moved their way downstairs to the reception.

Art ‘N Motion had beautiful vehicles throughout and this was their first wedding they were hosting. We loved being able to capture this Assembly Room wedding photography and Art ‘N Motion wedding videography for the first time in this beautiful venue. Before the reception area filled we snuck downstairs with Cassidy and Gregg to capture some shots with just the two of them.  We asked for permission before jumping in front of the classic cars on display.

For dinner they had brought a food truck into the parking lot and guests were able to select from their menu. It was a fun and unique touch and the food was delicious. Once everyone had eaten and got a start on the drinks it was time for toasts. The toasts were beautiful and even included a remix of Ice Ice Baby by Cassidy’s sister.

After the toasts they jumped into first dances and then began to celebrate. We had a blast with them moving around the venue finding shots and even stole them away for a few shots of just the two of them (we were ambushed by nerf guns once the photos were complete). Gregg and Cassidy’s family and friends were so great to meet and work with for this special day. They concluded their evening with one of the most epic sendoffs we’ve seen so far.

For their sendoff they had a group of motorcyclists out front waiting with all their guests. The guests all had sparklers and lit them as the garage door opened to reveal Gregg and Cassidy on their own motorcycle. Gregg and Cassidy pulled out to cheers, motorcycle engines revving and cheers from all their guests. The other motorcyclists pulled out after them and they all revved their engines as they made their grand exit.
