A Timeless Golden Nugget Atlantic City Celebration
Elegant Beginnings at the Golden Nugget Atlantic City
Kathryn and Brandon’s unforgettable wedding day unfolded at the luxurious Golden Nugget Atlantic City Hotel, Casino & Marina, a venue known for its waterfront elegance and vibrant atmosphere. Their October 25, 2025 celebration perfectly captured the romance of coastal New Jersey with a blend of sophistication, heartfelt emotion, and golden-hour magic — beautifully documented by Red Bank Studio.
The day began with intimate getting-ready moments at the Golden Nugget’s elegant suites overlooking the marina. From 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM, both sides prepared for the day surrounded by their closest family and friends. The morning was filled with laughter, anticipation, and tenderness — highlighted by the exchange of private letters and vows, a deeply personal moment that set the tone for the day.
Couple’s Portraits and First Look
At 2:00 PM, Kathryn and Brandon shared a touching first look at the Golden Nugget’s scenic marina terrace. The Atlantic breeze carried a sense of calm as they saw each other for the first time — a moment of pure joy before the celebration began. Their couple’s portraits captured the glamour of the venue’s gold accents and the romantic glow of autumn sunlight reflecting off the water.
Bridal Party and Family Portraits
At 3:00 PM, the energy grew as the bridal party joined in for portraits around the property. The group’s laughter and love brought a lighthearted spirit to the elegant surroundings, perfectly reflecting the couple’s vibrant personalities. Family photos followed, honoring generations of love and support, with every smile and embrace thoughtfully captured.
The Ceremony – The Showroom at Golden Nugget
As the sun dipped low, the couple’s 5:30 PM ceremony took place inside The Showroom, one of Golden Nugget’s most iconic indoor venues. The space was transformed into a glowing stage for their heartfelt vows. Kathryn and Brandon chose a short, sweet ceremony, focusing on the beauty of their connection and surrounded by friends, family, and the joyful energy of Atlantic City.
Cocktail Hour and The Wave Reception
Guests moved seamlessly from ceremony to celebration as cocktail hour began at 6:00 PM, offering marina views and lively conversation. Soon after, the festivities continued at The Wave, the venue’s stylish nightclub, where dinner, toasts, and dancing filled the night with joy.
At 7:00 PM, the newlyweds made their grand entrance to an eruption of applause before sharing their first dances with parents and each other. Dinner began at 7:30 PM, followed by toasts from the father of the bride, matron of honor, and best man at 8:15 PM — moments filled with laughter and heartfelt words. The night concluded with a fun group photo and a whimsical pie cutting in place of the traditional cake, giving the evening a unique and cozy touch.
