Proof that you don't have to leave Erie to create a wedding that feels effortlessly luxurious, romantic, and unforgettable.
The Vision
Inspired by the timeless charm of the Victorian Princess, this styled shoot blended classic romance with a modern editorial feel. Soft ivory details, elegant florals, refined tablescapes, and breathtaking waterfront views came together to create a wedding aesthetic that feels both luxurious and effortlessly romantic.
Our goal was simple: to showcase what happens when Erie's talented wedding professionals collaborate to create something truly unforgettable. Every detail was thoughtfully designed to inspire couples and demonstrate that a dream wedding doesn't require a destination, it can happen right here in Erie!
From the intimate ceremony setup on the upper deck to the elegant reception design and golden hour portraits on Lake Erie, this shoot celebrates the beauty, creativity, and collaboration that make our local wedding community so special.

Presque Isle Bay is one of Erie’s most beautiful natural backdrops, making it an unforgettable setting for more than just weddings. From bridal showers and engagement parties to rehearsal dinners and intimate celebrations, the waterfront brings a relaxed, elevated atmosphere that feels both scenic and special.
One of the most unique features of the Victorian Princess is its upper deck and tower area, which creates a truly memorable space for ceremonies. With sweeping views of the bay and open water all around, it offers a one-of-a-kind moment for couples to exchange vows while surrounded by Erie’s shoreline beauty.
