Connie + Lucio are married!!!!!

These two had such a beautiful look throughout the day, filled with color... I really loved their favors and asked Connie to explain their meaning:

"Traditionally, Korean couples incorporate ducks or geese in their wedding ceremony. Because ducks and geese have one mate for life, it is a symbol of faithfulness and of a long and happy marriage. After the wedding, they are placed somewhere in the couple's house. Their position tells of the couple's marital state. Face to face means the relationship is good. Tail to tail means there is something wrong. A couple is never to go to bed with the ducks tail to tail."

Congrats you Connie + Lucio!!!! It was sooooooo much fun and filled with eye candy :)

megan + peter . the wedding

Megan + Peter were married at the Los Angeles River Center & Gardens this past Spring in front of their friends and family... and it was beautiful. simply beautiful.

These two are so adventurous; their stories amaze and inspire me. They met in Guatemala --Peter was at the tail end of a six month traveling stint and Megan was studying Spanish on a grant from Grad school. Their travels overlapped for two wonderful weeks and in that time; they decided to pursue a relationship... For the past five years, they have been in a long distance love, traveling on the weekends to see one another. Peter living in Los Angeles, Wisconsin, and Arkansas, while Megan resided in Minneapolis and Belize!!!!!

Now married, their flights continue but they'll soon reside in the same state, same city, same home :) These two are so connected and listening to their friends and family, I learned so much about their huge and beautiful hearts...

Congrats you two, enjoy married life!
