A perfect blend of timeless elegance and heartfelt emotion—Elizabeth and Nick’s fall wedding at Collingswood Grand Ballroom in New Jersey was one for the books. As a wedding photographer, there’s nothing better than capturing a couple who is head-over-heels in love, surrounded by rich fall colors and a beautiful venue like this one.

From their romantic first look to their emotional indoor ceremony and golden-hour portraits, every part of their day was filled with warmth, joy, and undeniable charm.

A Beautiful First Look Before the Ceremony

Elizabeth and Nick decided to share a first look before their ceremony, and it was such a special moment. Set against the vibrant fall backdrop just outside the Collingswood Grand Ballroom, their reactions were full of emotion, laughter, and happy tears. This private moment gave them the chance to connect before the day officially kicked off—and created some of our favorite portraits of the day.

Fall Wedding Portraits Around the Collingswood Grand Ballroom

After their first look, we spent time capturing portraits around the beautiful grounds of the Collingswood Grand Ballroom. With the changing leaves, soft autumn light, and historic architecture, it was the perfect setting for romantic, editorial-style images. Elizabeth’s gown flowed beautifully in the breeze, and Nick couldn’t stop smiling at her all day.

An Outdoor Ceremony With a Grand Ballroom Reception

Although their ceremony was ultimately held indoors in the Grand Ballroom, guests first gathered for a lovely outdoor welcome, surrounded by crisp fall air and vibrant foliage. Once it was time to exchange vows, everyone headed inside to the Collingswood Grand Ballroom, where the couple said “I do” under the elegant chandeliers and classic architectural details.

The ballroom was glowing with soft candlelight, florals in autumn tones, and warm gold accents. The ambiance was romantic and cozy—perfect for a fall celebration.

Reception Celebrations in the Grand Ballroom

The celebration continued in the ballroom, where Elizabeth and Nick shared their first dance beneath the high ceilings and vintage elegance of the venue. The night was filled with heartfelt toasts, emotional parent dances, and a packed dance floor that kept the energy high all night long. Every detail of the reception reflected the couple’s style—sophisticated, joyful, and full of love.
