[Wedding] Marissa & Matt - South Gate Manor in Freehold, NJ

For the months leading up to Marissa & Matt’s wedding at South Gate Manor in Freehold, NJ – we literally scoured the entire map of Central(ish) NJ to find an off-site outdoor photo location which offered a potential indoor option as well (in the event of inclement weather). Little that we knew that such an endeavor would leave us with such limited options! But thankfully enough, Marissa & Matt did not have to contend with any rain on their wedding day, which allowed us to roam around freely on the grounds of Rutgers Gardens. Also major bonus points for getting married at the same parish where my son goes to school! PS: Check out Matt’s socks! I want a pair!

Thank you

There are probably more exciting ways to spend an evening than reading a few thousand words about a wedding venue.

But since you're here anyway, and now know more about this venue than some of the people getting married there next weekend, I figure we should probably say hello.

If you're looking for a photographer, I'd love to hear what you're planning.

We hear the coffee's pretty good here :)
