Jessie + Mike’s Engagement Session at Riverside Gardens Park and Downtown Red Bank

Jessie + Mike’s engagement session at Riverside Gardens Park in Downtown Red Bank was amazing! It was a breezy, overcast day and the landscape of Riverside Gardens Park was so beautiful overlooking the river. Jessie and Mike looked amazing! They had brought with them two outfits and both looks complimented each other effortlessly. Jessie arrived in a long white lace dress that fit her stunningly, while Mike wore a navy blue suit that he paired with a blush pink tie and pocket square. Jessie’s second outfit was a super cute and pretty knee length floral dress with ruffles and Mike looked handsome in navy blue dress pants that he paired with a pale blue polo.

How did you and your fiancé meet?

“I was hosting a party at my house and a friend of a friend of a friend convinced Mike to tag along. It was a Sunday night and he had work the next day and still to this day he doesn’t know what made him say yes to going out that night. We ended up hitting it off and he never left. He literally just walked through my front door one day.”

Walking through Downtown Red Bank we stopped at a record store to take a few photographs. Mike loves and collects old records. It was very fun to experience this happy moment with these two while they looked around the shop and discussed music. We chatted about their wedding and what activities they like to do together. They told us they love trying new restaurants, opening a bottle of French wine and talking about anything and everything with each other for hours.

Finishing up their engagement session, we had to stop at the restaurant where Jessie and Mike had their first date. We photographed them sitting at the exact same table! HOW CUTE ARE THESE TWO!?! Everyone inside was smiling and congratulating the couple. It was such a precious and exciting moment for the two of them.

How did your fiancé propose?

“We were celebrating an anniversary at crystal spring resort and during dinner the sun was setting. Then he asked me to marry him.”

Jessie and Mike said they are so excited for their wedding day to have a chance to celebrate with everyone they love in the same place at the same time. They are also really excited to dance the night away.

Congratulations Jessie and Mike! Thank you for letting us be a part of this beautiful time in your life. We cannot wait to photograph your special day!
