David and Joy, where do I begin?! From the moment I met them via zoom, I knew they would be so much fun. We just clicked! We talked about sports, wedding day, and their vision. Fast forward to their engagement session. They show up with New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles jersey’s on and just wanted to “have a catch” to start off their session. Right then and there I says, “Oh yeah, we’re gonna have some fun.”

Fast Forward….3/11/23, “GAME DAY”. We had an amazing day with David and Joy. They were surrounded by their loving family and friends and we were their to capture it all. We are so happy to have captured another beautiful wedding day. Let’s take a look at the NEW Mr. & Mrs. Mam!

How did you meet?

We met in PT school. I fed him snacks and threw him a perfect spiral football. He was hooked.

How did you get engaged?

In classic Joy and David fashion, it was in an escape room. He hid the ring in the last puzzle.

Why did you choose your venue?

We wanted an elegant ballroom feeling with good food and a fountain.

Tell me about your favorite wedding details, and how you came up with them?

Since our relationship started around food and football, it was important to us that those themes and details fit tastefully into our wedding day. We wanted our personalities to show so we had food at every turn throughout the day so no one was hungry, and we had people sign the jerseys as the guest book.

Were you nervous? How did you squash the nerves?

Not really nervous so much as excited. Excited that everything did come together so nicely and excited to celebrate our love with all our people! When we did get nervous or emotional, we just looked at each other and made a funny face so we'd laugh it off.
