Jessica and Ramy Wedding
Wedding Photography by Josh Wong

“Josh… I would love it if you can come photograph my proposal to my girlfriend Jessica in Central Park.” That was a year and a half ago. Today… They had their beautiful wedding celebration with their family and friends at the St. Abraam Coptic Orthodox Church in Long Island and I’ve been lucky enough to have been with them every step of the way. The initial proposal, the engagement session, and their wedding have been such a joy to capture for this beautiful couple.

The wedding day started out in the afternoon where both the bridal parties got ready in different suites at the Garden City Hotel. This was also where they hosted their wedding reception. The bride, Jessica, wore an ivory gown named the “Mona Lisa Royale”, by Maggie Sottero and the bridesmaids wore pistachio-colored dresses by Bill Levkoff. Her shoes were ivory colored, called Passion by Michaelangelo..they were charmeuse peep-toe d’Orsay heels with a crystal embellishment

Once everyone was ready, we all headed to the St. Abraam Coptic Orthodox Church. Their Egyptian Coptic Orthodox Christian Wedding was full of vibrant colors, songs, and beautiful biblical scriptures to celebrate the marriage of Jess and Ramy. From there we all headed back to the Garden City Hotel and partied and danced the night away. They literally fell over at the end. Congrats to Jess & Ramy!

Ceremony: Our Lady of Lourdes Church
Reception: The Carltun at Eisenhower Park

Today, I had the privilege of photographing the wedding of Jacqui and Ryan. The day started off bright and early for Jacqui and her bridesmaids as they got ready at Garden City Hotel in Long Island, New York. The bridemaids wore fun hot pink dresses complimented with glamourous honeysuckle bouquets. Ryan and his groomsmen were dressed in tuxedos with special cuff links that had a miniature photo of his mom. After the preparations, everyone headed over to Our Lady of Lourdes Church for the ceremony and then on to The Carltun at Eisenhower Park for the cocktail hour and reception where friends and family danced the night away.
