Jason + Bonnie’s Beautiful Spring Wedding | Shakespeare’s Restaurant & Pub at Olde Stonewall Golf Club | Ellwood City, PA | April 27, 2019 | PA Wedding Photographers

On April 27th Donny and I had the pleasure of telling Jason + Bonnie’s story. Their beautiful spring wedding at a medieval designed venue in Ellwood City, PA was so relaxed, sweet & fun. You could tell how much genuine love there was between not only the gorgeous bride & her groom, but also between the newly weds and their family members, bridal party and guests. We are so happy we had the opportunity to capture these unforgettable moments for such an awesome couple!

Enjoy some of our favorite moments & details from Jason + Bonnie’s big day!

 It was SUPER windy outside but it swept Bonnie’s veil up beautifully!

 Even though Jason and Bonnie did a first look before the ceremony, he still teared up as she walked down the aisle. Just goes to show it’s an emotional moment no matter what!

 There was a giant fish (yes, a real fish!) that kept jumping out of the fountain. Only a few of us got to actually see it and it was quite entertaining.

 Pittsburgh and Youngstown have what we call a “cookie table” and it’s one of the best traditions of all time.

Kind Words

We are so happy with our experience that we had to yell it from the mountain tops! They made sure we got all of the dreamy photos we were hoping for! It snowed like crazy, but nothing fazes these two!
