FROM THE BRIDE:

“We wanted things to be clean and modern while maintaining a personal feel. We designed and printed all our stationery, and I hand made fabric flowers for the bridesmaids’ bouquets. I also made my own bouquet using rhinestone brooches that had some meaning to us. Overall, we wanted our day to be a stress-free celebration, so the planning process was much the same!”

{LOVE BIRDS}

From Mario…“I love our conversations, because she laughs at my goofy jokes.”

From Jessica…“I love that Mario is willing to try the things that I like. He is a picky eater but is becoming more adventurous–I love that he tries new things just because I love them!”

Congrats Jessica and Mario and thanks for sharing your special day with us. Also, thanks to Catherine of Catherine Guidry Photography for sharing these images.  Click on any thumbnail below to view the entire gallery.
