I love all of my couples, but there's something extra special about these two. I've known Manny for 8 years, back when we were both working for the same employer. We've seen each other grow in so many ways and I couldn't be happier for him than I am now. He's found his soulmate and life partner and she is AMAZING. Marlia is sweet, gentle, patient, and makes things happen. They keep each other motivated and push each other to be the best versions of themselves. Isn't that what

The first time I met Alexandra and Jeff was at the Rock the Veil bridal show at 78th Street Studios back in April. The smaller show allowed me to spend time talking to each couple that stopped by, which I was so grateful for. We talked a little about their big day and it was just so cute to see the energy they had together. We ran into each other a little while later while I was out for a date night with my hubby and promised we would speak soon. I was so happy to hear from t

You may remember Ayesha and Saud from their Mehndi celebration which I shared on the blog not too long ago. Part 2 of their Memorial Day Weekend wedding, was their Nikkah and reception! These two beautiful people were surrounded by family and friends, some traveling all the way from India, to celebrate their marriage at Signature of Solon in Solon, OH. Enjoy!

Ayesha and Saud started their wedding weekend festivities with their Mehndi. The beautiful bride was adorned with amazing henna artwork on her hands and feet. (If you look closely, you may even see her groom's name hiding among the patterns!) The evening was full of family blessing the couple, dancing, great food, and everyone just having a great time before the wedding day. It was nice to be a part of all the excitement of the day!

It's not every day that you get to get dolled up and take photos with your boo. In fact, for most of you, you have probably never taken professional photos with your significant other. So how are you supposed to know what to wear, where to shoot? The most important thing I tell my couples is to be yourself. Tiana and Cortez definitely had a relaxed and casual side, but they also had an elegant, chic side that they chose to highlight for their engagement session. Tiana wore a

They make each other laugh, look at each other like no one else is in the room, and are just simply perfect together. What more do you need than to find your best friend and spend the rest of your life with them? Maya and Brandon were married in June in a beautiful, outdoor wedding ceremony in Cleveland, OH. Maya planned most of the details, and everything was perfect. There was so much love surrounding them that day and it was wonderful to be able to capture it for them. #we

Beautiful, fun, fancy, love. These are all words you could use to describe Bianca and AJ’s 5 year vow renewal. The details were classic and so on point, just like these two. The first time around, their nuptuals were small and intimate, but AJ always promised that when the got to their first milestone anniversary, he would throw her a party to remember. And that he did! With a stunning venue at none other than Landerhaven at Executive Caterers, their day was bound to be gorge
