Amorette & Cam’s wedding day at The Refinery at Perona Farms was an absolute blast! It was the most perfect grand finale to an amazing 2022 wedding season! The whole vibe of their wedding day was so unique and fun! The vintage touches like Amorette’s bird cage veil, and unique seating chart display with antique keys on a refinished vintage vanity brought it all together! I loved the dried florals, and they even had the most beautiful Rolls Royce car come for us to use with portraits! I loved how Amorette had a sentimental detail for her something blue: a blue bird pin in memory of her grandmother.
Cam’s cousin happens to be the insanely talented Jess, from “The Jess Press“! She always does such a beautiful job with signage and invitations, etc. It was so fun to see all the gorgeous pieces she created for Amorette & Cam, AND to get to finally meet her in person! 🙂
With Cam being a talented DJ, I knew from day one that their reception would be AMAZING! And it did not disappoint! The energy on the dance floor made it so much fun!
I have so many favorite photos, and cant wait to share them all! But first, their love story!
I asked Amorette to share the story of how they met and she gave me all the details! She said, “I was bartending at Wicked Wolf in Hoboken. I usually worked the Friday night shift but this particular weekend a girl asked to switch shifts as she had a wedding. That night this new DJ was playing and I thought “oh great, a different DJ, a different vibe- should be a good night!!! The night went on, music was amazing- such a great time and the patrons were having a blast!”
“I saw a friend from high school (had to be 5/6 years since I had last seen him) we caught up- told me his friend was DJing- I said “tell him he’s killing it”. Fast forward to the end of the night, I was cleaning my bar and closing tabs. I saw this guy at the other end of the bar, none of my bar-mates were helping him. I even tried to get the girls attention to serve him- nothing. So I walked down, asked him if he needed anything- Corona, please. Lime? Yes. Do you have a tab? “I’m the DJ!” I was like oh my god, you did amazing tonight! I’m Amorette, Cole’s friend (from high school)!” That was pretty much it. Didn’t think anything of it- gave him a compliment, added him on IG. I woke up to a DM. LOLL”
Their perfect Saturday together looks a lot like this, “Hopefully the puppies allow up to sleep in! Once we are awake it’s outside to walk the pups and have our morning coffee together and make a game plan for the day. The perfect Saturday is knowing the house is clean and having no plans which allows us to relax on the couch watching sports or movies, enjoying good food all day together. We rarely ever get to do this so this makes a perfect Saturday to me!!”
Amorette & Cam thank you so much for having me as a part of your wedding day! It was such a joy to celebrate with you two and capture so many memories from your big day. Ryan and I are so grateful for you guys! We love you and couldn’t be more excited for this next chapter in your love story! Sending you the biggest hug and all our love! xoxo
