Welcome to the Recent Wedding Page. Here you can see a sampling of ~ 30 images from each of our recent weddings.

Weddings are posted in the order in which we shot them. Alternately you can locate a wedding in the list of 'Recent Weddings' on the right side of this window, click on the link and you will be taken to the sample images from that event.

If you are here shopping for a Photographer, we may have a sample of a wedding shot at your venue. Scroll trough the 'Recent Weddings' (right side of the window, in blue). Events are listed by the couples name, the venue, the date.

If you are considering using Aaronstadt for your wedding photography we really appreciate that! We have been telling wedding day stories, with images, for many years and could not think of a better way to spend an afternoon, evening, weekend or whatever it takes to make those memories come alive again and again for you.

Marci and Chris, Club Paesano, That's Amore!

Marci and Chris were married last Saturday at Club Paesano / Cedarville Park in Gresham.    Club Paesano is an old fraternal social club off of Powell Blvd.  It is surrounded by acres of park, beautiful trees and a meandering creek.  The meeting hall itself is a beautiful faux log cabin style structure with facilities for quite a large group if necessary.

Marci's preps and portraits included shots on a Harley provided by a family friend, while Chris and the groomsmen tried to stay out of sight in the woods.  Marci and Chris did not see each other prior to the  ceremony, they were both getting pretty anxious by the time the ceremony was to begin.  Marci's father walked her down the aisle, which was an event made more special by the fact that Marci's dad has not walked for two years.  What a special moment that was.  Chris' brother performed a short but wonderfully personal ceremony. 

After the ceremony the family met in the park for family group pictures, while the guests visited, enjoyed the bar and made good use of the family-made custom photo booth.  The large fun collection of props were a big hit and kept everyone entertain while we took some lovely bride and groom portraits in the park. 

The cake was accompanied by lots and lots of yummy  treats.  My personal favs were the cheesecake lollipops and the mini pecan pies, yum.    Catering by Laurie, who provided the buffet as well as the cake and desserts, never fails to wow the eyes as well as the mouth. 

The beautiful bouquets and boutineers and other floral touches were provided by Flora and Form.

The party was great.  How could it be other wise considering there were lots of dress-up ops and even a limbo snake, . . . it was  quite an adventure!

Thanks guys for a great evening!
