They knew in 10th grade they were destined to be together forever. Amanda and Arie have been together every since. They even work together- at Mountain Spring Lake Resort. So it was no surprise they chose that venue for their wedding this summer. It was like a family reunion for the staff and the bride and groom as two of their own said 'we do' last week.

After a super romantic first look by the red barn, we started with some family formal photos. Of all the places for formal photos in the Poconos, the pond at Mountain Springs Lake Resort is hard to beat for a backdrop! We even slipped away from the family for a few extra romantic photos on the property.

Stephanie from Journeys of the Heart (http://www.journeysoftheheart.org) had the honor of officiating the marriage outside on a perfect summer day. After the ceremony, guests ate and drank in the courtyard while we finished some formal photos. Then we moved inside for dinner and dancing lead by DJ Dave Kish (http://www.djdavekish.com). 

A stunning sparkler send off sent Amanda and Arie off on their honeymoon!
