We met through friends. On our first date over a jug of sangria, there was an immediate spark and we couldn’t wait to see each other again.
I wanted our wedding to be fun, playful, and give all the spring vibes. Spring is my favourite season because the world comes back to life and all the flowers are just unbelievable at this time.
