September Wedding at Rock Island Lake Club | Marissa & Yosef

What a gorgeous wedding day for Marissa and Yosef at the Rock Island Lake Club! We were absolutely over the moon to join the delightful celebration of their September wedding in none other than the enchanting Sparta, New Jersey.

Getting Ready

Marissa spent the morning with her bridesmaids celebrating in the private on-site bridal suite. Her glam squad helped create a flawless wedding look for the bride and her bridesmaids. The bridesmaids wore dresses in various shades of red—the perfect look for a September wedding!

Marissa looked stunning in her A-line bridal gown with a scoop neck back detailing. Our team worked to create a bouquet that added the perfect pop of color to her wedding day look.

Yosef and his groomsmen spent the morning getting ready in the Lakeside Lounge, relaxing and preparing for the big day! Yosef rocked a classic black tux, perfect for any time of the year.

The First Look

The gorgeous grounds at Rock Island Lake Club are the perfect spot for an unforgettable first look. It’s impossible to look at Yosef and Marissa’s first look photos without getting teary-eyed! Marissa’s wedding day look left Yosef (and us) speechless.

Following their magical first look, the couple enjoyed a moment to snap portraits with their adorable bridal party!

The Ceremony

The couple’s lakefront ceremony took place under a gorgeous wooden arch. We were so excited to make Marissa’s vision of a lush flower arrangement adorning the arch a dream come true. The arrangements throughout the day had the perfect pops of color!

The Reception

Moments like these remind us why we love what we do—witnessing couples infuse their special day with unique twists that reflect their personalities. The reception was a testament to Marissa and Yosef’s meticulous planning and style.

Are you looking for simple, yet stunning centerpiece ideas? Yosef and Marissa created centerpieces with flowers in glass jars and added candles to create a romantic touch to the reception space.

The couple’s sweetheart table included a simplistic garland arrangement that tied together the romantic ambiance of the ballroom. They also added a touch of greenery to the top of the fireplace, creating a cohesive look.

A trend we are loving lately is a live painter. Check out the finished product!

And last, but certainly not least, let’s hear it for the wedding cake! It looked almost too good to eat!

Marissa and Yosef, we are so happy we were able to be a part of your special day! We wish you the best of luck and many years of happiness!
