“The Wedding” starring James and Reece

Clorissa and James. Married.

What a GRAND day! The big event was held at the Lincoln Theater in downtown Columbus. It was GRAND indeed! The bride was escorted by her father through the theater by spotlight. The ceremony took place on the stage where the bride and groom pledged their lives to one another surrounded by all of their loved ones.  Going with the theater theme, the guests were given “show tickets” with the couples’ names on them.  “The Wedding” starring James Williams and Clorissa Ogle.  The reception was a fabulous Tiffany & Co. theme.  The Tiffany blue color adorned the tables, the bridal party, the guest favors and even the brides gown.  Diamonds were EVERYWHERE!  It was such an amazing day.  Thank you Reece and James, for letting us be apart of it.  You both are such beautiful people.  Inside and Out.  It was a true honor.

She really could NOT be prettier. It’s just not possible.

    OMG Crystal-Jo,
    In a million years I would had never thought that my wedding pictures would be so beautiful. Although I didnt cry at my wedding I am extremely emotional now. The photos are not just beautiful but they told the story of my wedding!! They say that a picture can say a thousand words and with these photos a million stories from my wedding will come about and hopefully be passed down for generations.

    Crystal Jo, James and I are extremely grateful. Grateful for your patience, gratitude, professionalism and service. It was such a blessing to find someone that has the talent, eye, and personality that you share.

    With these photos I feel like I can relive that special day as often as I choose…and that is a great feeling 🙂

    I am the proudest father a daughter could ever have. I thank God everyday for James and Clorissa, and my prayer is that they have a Blessed future together forever. These photos are simply incredibly beautiful.

    Some people have a job, others a career; some are classified as talented, but this photographer, while she had a couple of perfect subjects, is clearly blessed with a gift. These pictures belong on the front of a national wedding magazine, absolutely breathtaking!

    I truly enjoyed the pictures. They conveyed the emotions of the day!
    Thanks for sharing!

    I’m about to turn 40 next month and i am a single mom who watches a lot of weddings on tv, from bridzilla to David Tutora and never on one of those shows did I see the Glamour, Excitement, and love i saw displayed between James and Clorissa. There was a smile on my face from the moment i walked into the theatre until the moment i walked out the dinning room where the funny pictures were being taking. There was just so much to do, i’m telling you there was never a dull moment. There was a timeline for everything. As I looked around at family and friends there was so much love in the air because both families came together knowing the bride and groom were deeply in love and we knew they would take care of each other. The colors of the wedding were fantastic, the bride was elegant and the groom showed a side of himself that i did not know and I loved it. I have to say that is was the best wedding that i ever saw in my life. Oh and the photo’s Are A+. I would most definately use this company when I have my wedding and i would refer anyone that needs a photgrapher to Crystal Jo. When I say you captured beauty…….YOU TRUELY CAPTURE BEAUTY.

    Awwesome!! I mean breath taking, I loved the theme and wedding party colors. Reece you looked so amazing and very pretty. From the photographers photo captures, I mean I missed the best wedding ever!!!! I was not their, but man the pictures illustrated that the wedding party and guest really enjoyed the event. May God continue to bless your strong unity. Congrats to the both of you.

    Hope you guys send this off to Jet, Essence, and any wedding magazine entry that exist, because I’m sure you have more beautiful photos and you have my vote..
