Victoria + Matthew, Francesca’s Cucina, Syracuse, NY

After Tori & Matt’s engagement session, I could not wait for their wedding! They had an intimate 40 guest wedding at Francesca’s Cucina on North Salina Street in Syracuse, NY! I have always imagined that a wedding here would be stunning as I’ve eaten dinner before. Keep scrolling down to see how my thoughts were true.

Tori told me that they picked their July 14th wedding date by researching weather patterns in Syracuse and found that this day consistently did not rain. True to their research, it was the ideal day for their ceremony and dinner on the stunning patio at Francesca’s!

Tori and Matt got ready before arriving at the restaurant, but they put the finishing touches on in separate rooms before heading out to get married and see each other. The ceremony was short and sweet by the fireplace, with their families and friends as witness. Their moms followed by the two of them blended sand together to represent their new family before sealing their marriage with a kiss. There were also hilarious toasts, delicious food from Francesca’s, and a dessert spread (and flowers) from Wegmans!

Their 4 hour wedding day was amazing, and I would happy to assist anyone else with their timelines who are looking for a smaller, more intimate wedding experience. Be sure to scroll down completely for a couple gifs by Brandon that we figured out how to make on this day. :)
