Keri + Matt | Hackensack Golf Club | Bergen County, NJ
Weddings are a beautiful celebration of love, but when they carry with them a sense of family legacy, the event becomes even more magical. Such was the case for Keri and Matt, a couple who chose to tie the knot at the Hackensack Golf Club, the very place where Keri's parents had exchanged their vows three decades earlier. This spring wedding was a beautiful testament to the enduring power of love, family, and the cherished memories that shape our lives.
Guests were greeted with a walk down memory lane, as large black and white prints of past family weddings filled the hallway as guests made their entrance into the wedding. We even took a photo at the same tree that her parents had on their wedding day! Keri chose to incorporate her family heritage in many other ways as well. Her bouquet was wrapped in a piece of her grandmothers wedding dress and she wore a stunning heirloom opal ring that had been passed down. The most special piece of all was her veil, which was handmade by her aunt and included lace from her mothers wedding dress!
Hackensack Golf Club is nestled amidst rolling hills and picturesque landscapes, that provided an idyllic backdrop for these college sweethearts. The lush green grounds blooming flowers, and a stunning blue sky filled with the most perfect fluffy clouds, made for a jaw dropping backdrop for photos. The cocktail hour was held outside and then the guests moved inside as the scent of cherry blossoms filled the entire ballroom where everyone was blown away by the towering beauty of the centerpieces that transformed the space into a spring affair.
Keri's parents, had celebrated their own wedding at Hackensack Golf Club 30 years prior. The choice to follow in their footsteps and exchange vows in the same location held profound significance for Keri, as she sought to honor her parents' enduring love and create her own chapter in the family's story.
This celebration served as a reminder of the profound impact our loved ones have on our lives. Keri and Matt's wedding bridged the past, present, and future, leaving an indelible mark on their hearts and the hearts of everyone in the room celebrating with them!

★★★★★ REVIEW FROM THE COUPLE…
So talented! I have nothing but amazing things to say about Cassondre! In the beginning, she was super helpful and answered all my questions before booking her. We used her for our engagement photos and it was the best idea ever because we got to know her before our big day. She was so accommodating since our first engagement shoot was cancelled due to the rain, and got us back on her schedule so quickly. On our wedding day, Cass was SO easy to work with and made the day so easy for both me and my husband. She knew exactly what poses to do and it never felt awkward or uncomfortable. She kept the day moving so smoothly and we were always on time because of her! We got our sneak peak within a couple of days and we are BLOWN away by our photos. She is so talented!! You will have the best wedding if you book her!!
