In the heart of Morristown, New Jersey, Mikaela and Jack celebrated their love in a gorgeous Country Club wedding at the luxurious Basking Ridge Country Club. It was such a sophisticated atmosphere for M + J’s wedding day. Fun fact, I ended up living 15 minutes from here when I moved to New Jersey! M + J are such a fun and playful couple! During their teenage years, they would rock out to Blink 182 and Yellowcard on the dance floor with friends. And their wedding was no different! This wedding was a dream come true to capture and it has been one of my favorites to capture thus far. Come along and see all of the amazing moments I got to share with Mikaela and Jack!

The Details That Made This Country Club Wedding so Special

Mikaela’s dress was so on trend for 2023, featuring a statement giant bow on the back! She also dazzled in a reception dress, showcasing her style and elegance. Not only was Mikaela dressed to the nines, but her guests were as well! Their elegance was the perfect addition to this sophisticated celebration. The wedding embraced a Pantone peach fuzz theme, infusing summer hues amidst the lush green surroundings.

Love from M + J | A Sophisticated Wedding in NJ

“Words can’t even begin to express how thankful my husband and I are for Kelsey documenting our wedding weekend. She was one of the first vendors we hired and it was the best decision we ever made. Kelsey was interactive throughout the wedding planning process. She took the time to get to know us individually and as a couple, which allowed her to not only capture genuine moments but evoke our most authentic selves. Kelsey was receptive to our suggestions and ensured her photos captured the vision for our rehearsal dinner, welcome party, and wedding day. I highly recommend Kelsey as a wedding photographer- she will be your hype girl, capture your most tender moments, and better yet create an everlasting portfolio you can admire for years to come. Kelsey, thank you so much for everything. You are truly one of the most talented photographers and I am thankful for our lasting friendship that has developed”
