Dan and Marisa were married on May 3rd at Ambiance Gardens. These two are such an incredible couple—passionate, elegant, and incredibly fun! Their day was gorgeous and so full of love. Here are some of my favorite images from the day.
The shoes, dress, and flowers.

The ceremony…


Dan and Marisa are bringing children to the marriage and they had a beautiful moment in which they blended sands to represent the union of the family.




They have the most adorable kids. I love the motion of this shot as the kids chase their parents down the aisle.

A few details…

And some reception highlights…


(I think this next shot may be my favorite from the whole day.)

A little speech preparation…

Instead of a traditional cake, Dan and Marisa chose a dessert table. For the first bite, they shared bite-sized triangles of delicious chocolate cake.

Dan invited the Educated Cigar out to the celebration, which was a huge hit with the guests.


The first dance…

Congratulations and best wishes to Dan and Marisa!
