Ralston Hall, Belmont Wedding

Are you still looking for an amazing venue for your wedding? Consider Ralston Hall Mansion in Belmont which is part of Notre Dame de Namur University. Amazing place!! Such grandeur and character.

I have photographed here several times now but this wedding in late September was THE BEST! A Persian ceremony and boy can they party. The dancing was so much fun! The festivities went all night long without a break. And I couldnt stop photographing because of all the fun and amazing emotional energy I was getting!



Take a look at the HUGE wedding party below! It was fun to organize these photographs into something other than a straight line! Those can be so boring.



Ahhh...the sweet twilight time




WOW, so the couple hired a bellydancer to come perform for their guests as a special treat. Sandra is a professional arabic bellydancer out of the SF Bay area. After performing several songs she then took the bride and groom individually onto the dance floor and danced with them. THEN, Sandra took the bridal party and then the groomsmen. Absolutely fun to see all these first timers giving bellydancing a go!

I just love this photograph of the bride right before she tossed the bouquet - her expression is just too cute!
