ALI + CONOR / Rehearsal Dinner

I’ve been covering more rehearsal dinners lately, and love their casual intimacy. I get to meet family & close friends early which makes it easy to identify them later on, I can document toasts that aren’t covered on the wedding day and there’s a palpable energy anticipation of what’s to come. Everyone is excited and maybe just a little bit nervous. It’s different than the celebratory momentum of a reception. Ali & Conor chose the Chef’s Table, one of Local 360’s private dining rooms, where the candlelit tables create a warmth that really adds to the experience. It’s my favorite way to light a cozy family dinner. Event Planner: Married with Michelle
