I am so excited to share this wedding with you! Nifer and Aaron were married after sunset at Kohl Mansion in Burlingame, Ca. It was a traditional Jewish celebration in almost every sense of the word. The ceremony began after sunset on a Saturday since Jewish weddings cannot take place on Shabbat. I always love documenting the hora and the stomping of the glass at the end of a ceremony, but I experienced new traditions that I enjoyed as well. The Groom’s Tisch, which is a time for guests to gather around a table to sing, give toasts and hear a speech by the groom was great to be a part of. The reception Hall was out-of-this world gorgeous! Five foot tall centerpieces, chandeliers, candles, and dramatic lighting were just a few of the amazing details that gave this wedding a glamorous feel! I have shot a lot of Jewish weddings and they are all so unique in their own way, but one thing that always remains constant is the fact they are ALWAYS the best party ever! The reception was kicked off with the Hora, which I must add, am dying to be a part of someday…as in I want to hold hands and dance circles around the bride and groom then put them on a chair and throw them in the air. Or more accurately I really just want to be tossed in the air 😉 Photographing it is pretty awesome too though! The energy in the room was electric! I absolutely loved everything about this wedding and truly adore Nifer and Aaron…especially their humor. These two are perfect for each other. I pick up on so much as I document a wedding day, and one thing that stuck with me about this couple is how Aaron looks at Nifer with so much adoration and love. Gave me goosebumps! Congrats you two!
