Outdoor Fall Wedding

When Tommy & Shannon’s plans changed in late 2020 due to Covid travel restrictions, this couple adapted and overcame. In just a few short months they were able to plan their joyous outdoor wedding at Stephany’s Catering in Erie, Pa. The couple had originally planned a destination style wedding out of state. But, with the help of Shannon’s family they were able to find a new venue close to home and a crew of wedding professionals to make their wedding day a success!

What We Did

Our team was honored to be chosen for Disc Jockey, Coordination, Photography & Videography for Tommy & Shannon’s Wedding at Stephany’s Catering. We began the day with Getting Ready photos for the groom at the couples home and the bride at The Victorian Inn in downtown Erie, Pa. The outdoor ceremony followed at Stephany’s Catering on Wyoming Avenue. Stephany’s is a unique venue that has both indoor/outdoor options for ceremony & reception. As the name implies, they provide their own catering service.

Our own Erie DJ Entertainment team provided sound and music for both ceremony & reception. Also, as I previously mentioned we worked alongside our Erie Videography team while they captured the magic on film. You can view a short highlight reel of their wedding day below. The most memorable moment of the day for me was the look on Tommy’s face as he watched Shannon walk down the aisle. He could barely contain himself. 

Taking Advantage of Alone Time

Because the entire Wedding at Stephany’s Catering was in one location we were having just a bit of trouble getting photos of the newlyweds alone. The bride & groom’s best friends came up with the genius idea to take off alone for a few hours. We drove a few minutes away to Frontier Park and spent some time as the sun was beginning to slip away capturing some much needed newlywed photos. It was the perfect ending to a sweet day. 

Undaunted by Challenges

Indeed, 2020 and all it’s restrictions proved challenging for people everywhere. It was refreshing, however, to see a couple who’s love was strong enough to carry them through these difficulties. We’re thankful and inspired by Tommy & Shannon’s resolve to hold a Covid Wedding during these trials. Thank you for remaining undaunted by the challenges and sharing those beautiful, joyful moments with our team. Congratulations. We know that you will successfully overcome many challenges together with strenght and resolve.
