Winter Light, Elegant Details, and a Heartfelt First Look
Evelyn and Anthony’s Historic Post Office wedding was a day filled with warmth, connection, and joyful celebration that began with a thoughtful first look before the ceremony. The Historic Post Office, with its iconic Beaux-Arts architecture and stone steps, created a timeless backdrop for their winter wedding portraits. Their first look was especially meaningful, allowing them to share intimate moments together before the ceremony in the soft winter daylight, a smart choice when daylight hours are limited in winter.
Ceremony Full of Meaning and Laughter
The ceremony itself was rich with emotion and personality, marked by the couple’s reading of “Resignation” by Nikki Giovanni, a poem that resonated deeply with them and set a poetic tone for the vows. In many photos, you can see the couple’s genuine expressions as they listened and shared that meaningful moment together. The Historic Post Office’s grand interior arches and classic details enhanced these scenes by giving them a sense of history and understated elegance.
Fun Moments and Lively Reception
Later in the reception, Evelyn and Anthony played the “shoe game,” a lighthearted tradition that brought laughter and playful competition to the celebration. Guests leaned in, smiling and cheering as the couple answered each question, and I captured reactions that truly reflected the atmosphere of joy throughout the evening.
Sparkler Send-Off on the Iconic Steps
The night concluded with a magical send-off outside in front of the Historic Post Office’s classic steps. Sparklers lit the scene, and the couple’s final portraits were taken under the soft glow of lights and meaningful smiles. The Historic Post Office wedding photography from this moment feels both cinematic and deeply personal, a perfect ending to a day full of warmth, laughter, and love.
Congratulations Evelyn & Anthony – thank you for choosing Kinstler Photography to document your wedding at the Historic Post Office in Hampton, VA. It was a beautiful day, and I really enjoyed my time with you and your guests.
