Real Wedding: Cynthia + Les in {Brooklyn} -Munaluchi Bride

Today’s wedding feature is a real treat. It was photographed by Angelica of Angelica Glass Photography…an AMAZING talent. I just love the way she captured all the divine details. The couple, Cynthia Etonga & Les Andrew were married in August of 2009 in Brooklyn. The bride did an outstanding job planning her wedding without the help of a wedding planner. Great attention to detail and very well pulled together. Check out the interview:

MBM: What was your inspiration for planning your wedding?

Cynthia: Thank God for blogs. I spent hours, days, and weeks on them looking for inspiration.

MBM: Did you have a huge budget or a small budget, and were you able to stay within it?

Cynthia: We had small budget and stayed on budget….Although any savings went towards our honeymoon.

MBM: Where did you go for your honeymoon?

Cynthia: We had a two week honeymoon: It began in South of France (Nice and Monaco), then Paris, and then we ended in Greece (Athens) and Santorini.

Take a look at Cynthia’s wedding. She is such a STUNNING bride! Don’t you just love the yellow accents?

Does anyone know more about the groom’s suit? Was it is a suit or a tux? Where did he find it?
