CJ and Matt were married at the amazingly welcoming Saints Polish National Church in Carnegie on a Friday afternoon. Their day was one surrounded by friends and family, who notably were there out of their busy Friday afternoons to celebrate the joining of their lives. Their ceremony was wonderfully personal, with lots and lots os musical touches. They are very active in the music at the church and their wedding ceremony was complete with a guitar, violin, and harmonious singers.
After their ceremony, their reception was held at the beautiful and vintage Grand Concourse in Station Square. They had cookies galore and spent their evening celebrating and mingling with their friends and relatives.
Thank you for having me with you on your wedding day, and I hope you both had a wonderful time in Aruba!
Her mother’s locket.
All of the guys looking handsome in their brown tuxedos!
The church was beautiful. I like how you can see some of the choir peeking down to see her come down the aisle.
The ceremony was very personal, and I believe this was at one point where the priest was talking to the longest married couple. He asked how they did it and from the back of the church came: “I just agree with everything she says.”
Again, music was a large part of their wedding day.
CJ is just radiant in this one.
Some quick portraits before heading to the Grand Concourse.
It is so gorgeous inside!
He was really good, and I hope I got him from his “good side” 🙂

Fantastic pictures! I didn’t think that pictures could do justice to such a beautiful event at the church and Grand Concourse. The photographer did great capturing the moment forever without being too obtrusive.
