When we say there are no rules in wedding planning, we mean it. The most beautiful wedding is beautiful because it celebrates your love! ?

Viririana & Emmanuel are a perfect example. They were beyond excited to officially be married, so they exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony at their first house together followed by a elegant backyard dinner for their closest friends & family.

 

 

Four months later, the couple got married in a traditional Catholic ceremony at their home church Our Lady of Perpetual Help. Instead of wedding venue, they hosted a larger reception Toro’s Kitchen & Bar, a Spanish restaurant near the Historic Market Square. A parade of mariachis led the wedding party into the reception, kicking off a night of celebratory fun! The dance floor was never empty and they finished their night was the traditional Mexican dance called Vibora de la Mar.

Viririana & Emmanuel’s wedding celebrations were made all the more special by their family. Viririana’s sister put together all the florals while her Mom hand-stitched table cloths, napkins and her veil.
