Birchwood Manor wedding photographer

Notes for couples marrying at Birchwood Manor: the garden ceremony, the ballrooms and the Route 10 logistics.

The venue

A Morris County ballroom with a garden

Birchwood Manor has hosted Morris County weddings for decades: ballrooms, a garden with a gazebo for ceremonies and a cocktail space between them. It sits just off Route 10, minutes from the Whippany and East Hanover hotels.

Route 10 is a divided highway with jughandles, and the turn into the manor catches drivers who are not expecting it. Mauricio gives the limo the exact turn and arrives early.

Mauricio hasn't published a gallery from Birchwood Manor yet. He scouts your venue before the day and plans the timeline around its light.

What Mauricio plans for at Birchwood Manor

  • The garden ceremony

    The garden faces open sky, so the light is even through the afternoon. He sets the angle so the gazebo is the backdrop and the sun stays off the guests.

  • Portraits beyond the manor

    For more texture than the garden offers, the Frelinghuysen Arboretum and Jockey Hollow are ten minutes away. He builds a short stop in when the timeline allows.

  • Ballroom light

    The ballrooms are classic and dim. Mauricio brings light for the dances and the toasts and keeps it warm.

  • More than one wedding

    The manor often hosts two events on a Saturday. He coordinates portrait timing so the garden is yours when you need it.

How he works

What to expect from Mauricio

  • He scouts first

    Mauricio scouts your venue before the day and plans the timeline around its light, so portraits happen where and when they look best.

  • Candid first, posed when it counts

    Most of the day is documented as it happens. Family photos and portraits are planned, quick and directed so you get back to your guests.

  • One photographer, start to finish

    Mauricio photographs your wedding himself, from getting ready to the last dance. The person you talk to now is the person behind the camera.
