I Now Pronounce You...
Hi everyone! Lori here from the "Here Comes the Wedding" blog to share some pictures of the big Bride of the Year wedding. This past Saturday Keyana and Eric finally said their "I do's" at Tavern on the Green, and home design editor Aimée Morgan and I were lucky enough to attend. We snapped a few behind-the-scenes photos just for you. Check them out:
|
When I arrived at Keyana's bridal suite at the Grand Hyatt, she was in the middle of getting prepped by her bridesmaids. She didn't look the least bit nervous as everyone moved around her.
|
Keyana's wedding dress had a few wrinkles, so it had to be steamed.
|
The ring bearer smiles as his mother dresses him up. Unfortunately, the little guy had other plans. Before we even left the room, he already had his jacket and vest off. He kept saying "I take it off," and we kept telling him, "No, keep it on." He was too cute!
|
Here's Keyana putting on her gorgeous wedding dress. Once she was all zipped up, she definitely was a vision in white.
|
Eric and his groomsmen take a breather in front of Tavern on the Green as they wait for everything to get started.
|
Celebrity sighting! Before Aimée realized who he was, she walked right up to Mr. Combs and asked if he was there for the wedding. Quickly realizing her mistake she apologized but still managed to get a few pics. When Eric found out he was there, he was more than ready to make room for him.
|
Lanterns add a whimsical touch to Tavern's outside area. The place looked amazing at night with all the lights.
|
Our photographers give Eric and his entourage some direction during the photo shoot.
|
Eric making some adjustments to the ring bearer's tux. Luckily he managed to keep the whole thing in tact.
|
Aren't they cute?! Eric and the ring bearer get down on one knee for an adorable pic. As you can tell, we just couldn't stop taking pictures of this cutie.
|
Keyana's turn in front of the camera!
|
The flower girl and ring bearer join Keyana for a few pics.
|
Keyana's bridesmaids smile for the camera. The matron of honor was due to give birth in two weeks, but that didn't stop her from traveling all the way to NYC to carry out her duties. Now that's what I call love.
|
Keyana and her mother share a moment in front of the camera. Their mother/daughter dance was so sweet that I even found myself getting a little choked up.
|
Keyana's grandmother showing off her wedding stuff. She was so great! At one point she and I were secretly taking a few pieces of candy from the candy bowls and sneaking them into our bags. What?! It's good to be prepared just in case you get a sweet craving.
|
Keyana gets her makeup touched up while Eric waits. Our photographers were great at capturing every moment, which you'll see in our Jan/Feb issue.

The wedding cake

The wedding was absolutely beautiful and both Keyana and Eric looked so happy. Congratulations again! Stay tuned for more pics and a few video clips of the big day.
