A fairytale wedding at Hollyfield Manor is the simplest way to describe Nicole and Chase’s wedding day. It was a beautiful blend of tradition, love, and unforgettable moments. Set at the charming Hollyfield Manor, the couple’s celebration was a reflection of their unique story, personalities, and deep connection to family and tradition. Every detail—from the first look to the joyful reception—was filled with love, laughter, and heartfelt tributes to those they hold dear.
As a wedding photographer, I was honored to capture such a deeply personal planned wedding day. It was truly a celebration to remember!
A Ceremony Full of Love and Meaning
Nicole and Chase’s ceremony was held outdoors overlooking the water at Hollyfield Manor, the perfect setting for their intimate vows. Their ceremony was uniquely personalized, with moments that honored their families and their heritage. One of the most touching elements was Nicole’s bouquet, which featured a piece of her mother’s wedding dress—a meaningful symbol of connection between generations. In addition, Nicole carried three charms with photos of her late grandparents, a beautiful tribute to those who couldn’t be there in person.
The couple also honored Nicole’s Jewish upbringing with a beautiful and traditional touch—Chase stomped on the glass at the end of their ceremony, symbolizing the joy and the brokenness of life, and the couple’s commitment to stick together through both.
Another touching moment came when Cody, Nicole’s beloved pup, proudly walked down the aisle. It’s always special when couples incorporate their furry friends into their day, and Cody’s role in the ceremony was one of the highlights.
To make their ceremony even more special, Nicole and Chase had a close friend, Justin, marry them. The personal connection made the ceremony feel even more intimate and heartfelt.
First Looks and Secret Dances
Nicole and Chase also had not one, but three first looks on their big day! Nicole shared special moments with her bridesmaids, her dad, and, of course, her soon-to-be husband, Chase. Each first look was filled with raw emotion and genuine excitement—such a beautiful way to share these intimate moments with the people who mattered most.
The reception didn’t disappoint, either! Nicole and her dad surprised everyone with a secret fun dance for their father-daughter first dance. It was one of those moments that everyone will remember and talk about for years to come!
After their first dance, the celebration continued with a delicious and playful twist—a Gelati Celesti ice cream truck, which delighted guests with sweet treats throughout the evening. As if that wasn’t enough, Nicole made a quick wardrobe change into a second stunning and fun dress, keeping the energy up and ensuring the fun never stopped, and it didn’t!
Every Detail Thoughtfully Planned for this Fairytale Wedding at Hollyfield Manor
Nicole and Chase’s wedding was a true reflection of their personalities and how much they value family. From the heartfelt charms on Nicole’s bouquet to the sentimental touches like the note from her mother sewn into her gown, it was clear how much thought and love went into every detail. The unity ceremony, while still in the planning stages, promised to be a beautiful addition to their celebration, symbolizing their union in a deeply personal way.
The reception was a fun and festive affair with an incredible DJ from Tony at Black Tie Entertainment, keeping the dance floor packed all night. And the catering by Hollyfield Manor (Traditions) ensured that every guest was well-fed and satisfied, with a delicious menu to match the day’s elegance.
