FALL IN LOVE FOR A LIFETIME

Your Once In A Lifetime
Love Story

We cannot get enough of good stories. They are the stuff of life. Your story? It's the only one of its kind!

How you met. Why you work together. Your inside jokes. All of the reasons you are better together.

We want to know it all!

The words of the wedding day tell your story. That is the reason videos are so important. Our films encompass all of the best parts of your first day as a married couple, told through your vows, and through the words of your favorite people in the world, so that forever more, you can return anytime to the magical day that it all started.

The Power Of The Beginning

We whole heartedly believe that marriage is one of the most important and best decisions you will ever make. It also requires a tremendous amount of work and sacrifice. You're making the bold decision to wake up and choose another person for the rest of your days. In the good times, and especially the bad. Each difficult season you journey through together makes you that much stronger. Through our lowest seasons, we have always found respite in going back to the beginning: How we felt on our wedding day, and why we chose to get married in the first place.

This is why we love wedding videos. On your hardest days, (which we pray are few!) you can pull up your own film, and be reminded of the commitment you made, and all of the many reasons you chose your partner.

We are forever rooting for your marriage!

LET'S CREATE YOUR TIMELESS WEDDING STORY TOGETHER

Your wedding day is an extraordinary chapter in your love story. We specialize in crafting cinematic wedding films that will beautifully narrate the beginning of your forever. Get in touch with us to start planning your unforgettable wedding film.

KIND WORDS FROM OUR HAPPY COUPLES

We are utterly OBSESSED with everything you delivered to us. I don’t want to admit the amount of times we have collectively watched and the amount of times I have watched and listened on my own. I can speak for both Nick and myself when I say you far exceeded every expectation we could have had.

We had intimate viewing gatherings all weekend to show our closest family and friends and every person we showed was in awe of your talent and how perfectly you captured the day.

We will cherish these films forever. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and beyond for EVERYTHING. You are great at what you do, but you are even greater human beings and we are grateful to know you. Keep being amazing.

Toni + Nick

When Trenton first laid eyes on Tomasina, he fell in love immediately. His best men informed him that he did not have a chance in the world with her. Trenton did not accept this, and pursued the woman of his dreams with quiet determination until she saw it too. He won her heart, and still looks at her with the same adoration as the first day he saw her.

Their wedding this past weekend at Nemacolin was nothing short of unforgettable.

Tomasina and Trenton opted not to do a first look—and saw each other for the first time as she walked down a floral-lined aisle.

Trenton’s eyes told the whole story. There was that iconic look that so encompasses their love story. He is captivated by her. A hush fell over the crowd. All eyes were on them—but his never left her. ✨✨

And then came the reception. Straight out of a dream.

Nicole and her team from Exhale Events and the incomparable Joe Mineo Creative transformed Nemacolin’s already elevated estate into a whole other world of elegance and wonder. Picture candlelit tables, floating disco balls, textured white florals, and the kind of layered luxury that takes your breath away. This powerhouses duo took Tomasina’s dream and turned it into something beyond imagination.

So grateful to have documented it all alongside the phenomenal @megannollphotography.

We can’t wait to share more. This one’s for the books. 🖤🎥

Naz as a dad
Funcle to father.

It’s certainly no secret that Naz is really good at what he does. He’s talented and magnetic. With those amazing qualities comes a lot of praise, and recognition.

A reality that can be in vast contrast to life at home - where there are no breaks, and lots of big emotions. A place that requires your all day after day - often with little to no appreciation (at least from the littles, but sometimes from me too).

Tears and tantrums. Sleepless nights and endless messes. Never ending to do’s.

These girls have forever changed us and become our world. We wouldn’t trade this life for anything. And still, it’s really hard.

It is refining and holy work. But dang, is it work.

But to the man (and men) who have chosen to step up, lean in, and keep learning. Who show up. To be a gentle landing place when all you want to do is scream.
To snuggle two ladies to sleep when you’d rather be out.
Who wipe the counter clean day after day.
Who work really hard and then come home and aren’t checked out, but check in.
You are raising the bar and changing lives.

Thanks for being there for the fun adventures and the big feelings. You are our literal hero. We feel it when you’re gone, and dang do we know it when daddy is home.
The load is lighter, the laughter comes easier and the kitchen is always cleaner.

Thanks for navigating this learning curve - from birthing babies to raising little humans.

I have never loved you more than because of the fact that our girls have the highest standard of a man and will never question their worth or how much they are loved.

You’re our everything and more, Megatron! Happy Father’s Day!

Guana Preserve gave us everything and more — soft sand, glowy light through overcast skies, and even a rainbow to end the session (But somehow we miraculously never got hit with the rain!!) 🌈

This incredible family of five bravely relocated across the country to build a slower, more intentional life by the water. Watching them together — full of patience, laughter, and the kind of connection that speaks without words — was something truly special.

They just celebrated 14 years of marriage! A truly remarkable milestone. This session was such a testament to the incredible team they are, and the beautiful life they have built.

The way they held their babies, moved together, laughed in the in-between — it was a reminder that amidst the beautiful chaos, this is what it is all about.

Because one day, these are the moments they’ll come back to — proof of the love they built and the life they’re still building. We are just out here living the good ‘ole days <333

Have you been to Legoland?

We actually didn’t go to Lego land, we went to Peppa Pig world. But we *did* stay at the Legoland hotel and when we say we were blown away, I think that’s still an understatement.

Never have we ever been somewhere that was so kid friendly (and let’s be real, fun for the adults too!) They had entire Lego ROOMS all over the place.
Waiting for your dinner? No problem, just go to one of the enormous pits of legos and build your heart out!
There was a pajama dance party in the evening. A delicious family style breakfast included in the stay. And fun themed rooms and displays at every turn.

We both want to return, *and* buy a bazillion legos to recreate this at home. For now, we’re just reminiscing the fun times and brilliancy of those who brought this dreamy place to life.

Apparently, there are Lego master builders who make some serious money to bring these Lego creations to life. It might be too late for us, but maybe there’s a chance for you!

#legoland @legolandflorida @lego

Sisters by choice. 💐✨
When your bridesmaids see you for the first time… and then your maid of honor puts it all into the most eloquent and heartfelt words 💖

“Isn’t that what you call it when someone chooses to love you, be your best friend, confidant, supporter, advice giver and always has your best interest at heart... even when they don’t have to?”

When the maid of honor spoke these words — love that isn’t required, but given freely — it felt like the heartbeat of the whole day.

This day at TPC Sawgrass was beyond dreamy — sun-drenched florals, forever friendships, and a bride who was everything.

Naz traveled for a large chunk of April. That distance and time apart was HARD. We’ve gotten our reps in, to be sure. And each time we reach the end of the distance, I am left in awe of the sacrifice that military families make for so much longer. Distance may make the heart grow fonder but, geesh!!

Kudos to this incredible couple who didn’t just survive the challenges thrown their way, but has thrived in spite of them. We are ever amazed by you to and so grateful for you and all of the couples out there, just like you!

When your teenage sons are assigned your reception introduction AND a toast and they make it absolutely unforgettable.

We will never be over the way this couple incorporated their sons into their day. And how their boys showed up resoundingly for their parents. They are literally #familygoals

A year ago, a friend read a book that inspired the question - If you could go anywhere, with anyone, where would you go and who would you want with you?

Nazari knew pretty quickly that he would love to have a trip with his brothers (he has SIX of them!!). After much deliberation, he realized that more than going somewhere else, he would love to have them visit our home, especially since many of them haven’t yet been to our new home since relocating to Florida.

This seemed doable enough! (Naively optimistic about where we would be at a year later with a 2 and 4 year old 🙃). But we would figure it out!

Plans were set in motion. Dates were chosen. Travel plans arranged.

At the turn of the new year, there was a chilling realization that I would be taking the girls somewhere, alone, for multiple days. *gulp*

The planning and countdown was not all sunshine and rainbows, to be sure. But we found a place near the beach for a couple of days (win!) and some friends agreed to host us for the remainder.

Busy days leading up to this caused a lot of tension. So we cancelled plans. Worked together to get the house ready and get packed, and alas, the weekend has now come and gone.

The end result? It was a roaring success for all parties. Thankfully it went super well with the girls. And the guys had a fabulous time!

With as much chaos and stress that surrounded it, this weekend was so special for so many reason and so worth it.

It started with a fun discussion. Evolved into the planning and blocking of dates. And ended with tired humans with very full hearts.

Committing a year in advance is a big deal. But it was important to all of them and they made it happen.

Life is flying by. So this is just a little reminder to keep having the conversations and doing what it takes to help make dreams come true for those you love the most. You’ll never regret it.

It will also never happen if you don’t dream and plan today.

So, we challenge you - if you could go anywhere, where would it be? Tag the loved ones you want to join you!! And get those dates locked downnnnnnn ✈️🫶

Ang is a whole vibe. She is so beautiful and has such great taste. It will likely come as no surprise that she is a passionate aesthetician who owns her own exquisite space called the @the.skinhouse.byangelarae !

She is a true force as she bravely followed her experience and passion to help others look and feel their best. Angela - you shine from the inside out! You can check out her about page on her website to learn more about her inspiring journey.

And if you’re local to Pittsburgh, be sure to get to The SkinHouse pronto!! You won’t be sorry.

When home is a person 🥹

“When we first met, I simply didn’t believe someone like you could really exist, and if you could really be the Prince Charming I was beginning to fall in love with…
But you, my sweet Henry, made me quickly realize, that it didn’t matter where we were in the world, because with you, I was home.”

Planning your photoshoot and bringing your beloved grandma along?! 11/10 idea!

It’s an immense blessing to have grandparent present in your life. Preserving memories with them?! Such a special idea!

Outside of weddings, we don’t know many opportunities or occasions where there is time set out to document multigenerational portraits. Planning them yourself as a gift to your loved ones?! Top tier idea.

“I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this…”

Rooftop vows. Friends turned lovers. All of this because she had the courage to share how she felt. And it changed everything in the best way 😭😭😭

A moment for the groom. One with a proclivity for self improvement, including multiple admirable attempts to stop drinking coffee.

Albeit, we both love coffee so, so much that cutting it out has never worked for us either ☕️ What is a life without coffee?

Liberty’s current obsession is having us tell her stories. Naz’s stories seem to always include a segment about him being the fastest. Once, I literally heard him say “because mama is so slow”.

We often race on bikes, but his bike is ELECTRIC, so it doesn’t count as a real win. Liberty doesn’t understand this and just thinks he’s faster. So, we had no choice. We had to race.

Unfortunately, in the case, I proved him right. He smoked me!

Regardless of the outcome, we remain a house divided. Two of us still believe that mama is faster. And who can argue with a two year old?

A moment for Kyla and her dad 🥰

In honor of being back at TPC sawgrass this weekend, AND getting to work with Mccurry events again, we are flashing back to that dream combo from last spring with Lauren and Andrew!

These two did not see one another before the ceremony! There was so much sweet anticipation all day long. Their ceremony was remarkably intentional and meaningful. Our favorite part was when they had two of their bridesmaids sing a worship song while they shared a private communion!

Their love for one another had everyone in attendance shedding happy tears 🥹

When you pull off the most epic surprise with the absolute PERFECT gift!

Surprises aren’t easy. Nor is giving a gift that you know will elate someone. Cristina achieved the ultimate of both of these feats with her wedding gift to her new husband.

Henry did NOT see it coming and as you can see, was ecstatic by the surprise from his bride and best friend!

Cristina and Henry - We can’t get enough of your enthusiasm and radical love for each other!!

When you find the one, and want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible 😭😭😭
Proposals have our hearts exploding. Especially when it’s between two of the sweetest souls on earth like Ethan & Kathryn 🥰💍

These two knew each other from high school. They were very different at the time and dating wasn’t even in their realm of consideration.
Years later, both graduated from college, they reconnected at church. This time, the stars aligned and the connection was pretty instantaneous.

Ethan and Kathryn - you are so good together and we cannot even wait to watch all the incredible things that God has in store for your life together!!

Christmas. The happiest, and possibly the most hectic? time of year 🎄🙃

We actually did put up decorations before Thanksgiving this year for the first time ever. (Gasp!) I think I had high hopes that starting early would somehow equip us to be more prepared *ahead* of time for the mayhem and never ending to dos that accompany this joyous season. Yet two December birthdays, and a stomach bug this past week derailed those best laid plans and humbled us real quick.

It again reminded us that this Christmas Card video tradition is one of the many things in life that we both love and hate simultaneously! It often brings about more than a few quarrels regarding what we will do, when and how we can do it and… what we can chalk up as creative differences 🙃

In the end, on the other side, we often find that our different ways of looking at the world actually make us better. And when we can laugh *at* ourselves, life is a heck of a lot more fun.

Merry, merry Christmas and the happiest new year wishes to you! May you find time to be present, and find patience and grace when you aren’t actually running ahead of schedule 🥰

Pro tip to the guys - New Year’s resolution - actually book the babysitter 😉😉

Our wish for all people is to find the great love of their lifetime. Cristina and Henry have found that in spades and anyone lucky enough to see them together knows it too. They are electric. They are remarkable people who are somehow even better together. They light up the room, and the world around them. No posing needed.

This past weekend, they threw an unforgettable celebration to mark this next chapter in their serendipitous love story. While Pittsburgh is their city; Naples is also home, and where they decided to celebrate their fairytale.

The caliber of the wedding vendor dream team, friends and family in attendance, and the couple themselves may have made it feel make believe, everything about these two is the real deal. Thus, it’s no surprise they have the most incredible people surrounding them and cheering so loudly for all of their love, happiness and success. We are forever in your biggest fan club too, Cristina and Henry!

Infinitely grateful to have been invited into your wedding weekend! Congratulations to the iconic, exuberant, fabulous and totally in love newlyweds!!! 🥂

Fall in Florida Christmas minis were a blast this year! Isn’t it wild that it’s the fall season until December 21??? As in, for most of the countdown to Christmas, it’s FALL, not winter?

In elementary school, we were exiting the classroom one day and instructed to line up by season. My birthday is December 18, so joining the winter line seemed like a slam dunk. But no, that was not in fact the place for me. I was indeed in the Fall section. And to this day, it still hurts my brain a little, because December should be winter!

Combine that with Florida’s warmer weather and I don’t even know what’s happening anymore 😂🙃

If you’re in north Florida and looking to have photos taken after the holidays, stay tuned for another mini session in the new year!

Cozy Christmas movie nights are the bessst!

Homemade popcorn and hot cocoa.
Curled up by the (electric) fire.
Soaking in the holiday magic with timeless movies is one of our favorite parts of the season.

This past week, we had our first movie night as a family of four (it was the first time our newly two year old had the attention span to sit and watch half of a movie!!) For Naz, it was a bucket list item check off his list. 🥰

The movie? The Santa Claus!! It’s a classic and one we love watching every year. We compiled our top holiday movies in this reel - the ones we don’t get sick of and return to watch year after year.

We are behind this season because, albeit late the game, we started watching Suits, and we just can’t stop. So we either have to complete the series (three seasons to go), or table it to assure we don’t miss out on these seasonal favs.

The Holiday
The Family Stone
The Santa Claus
Elf
I’ll Be Home For Christmas
Little Women
Klaus
Last Christmas
Love Hard
Love Actually (edited version 🫣)
The Grinch
The Family Man
It’s A Wonderful Life

What do you think of our list? Anything we missed?

Lauren + Tashi 🫶 Not the meet cute story you hear every day. Despite the hilarious, and less than ideal intro, that meeting still led to their happily ever after!

We were lucky enough to get to document their celebration and couldn’t be happier these betrothal newlyweds whose joy lights up the world! Congratulations to The Engs!

Last night; the moon shone brightly and we paused to admire its luminescence in the dark sky. Liberty looked to me and asked, “Mom, can I talk to the moon?”
“For sure you can!” I replied, reveling in her sweet innocence.
Gazing upon the night sky at the crescent moon, she spoke in full sincerity, “Hi moon! I wish it was Christmas ALL THE TIME!”

Same girl, same!!

This weekend is full of Christmas fun. North Florida is COLD and it is making this season even more magical. The girl’s ages make every ounce of Christmas that much more special.

Tonight, we ventured to a new farm and were wow’d at every turn! They had bounce houses, kids Christmas games (with candy cane prizes which you can’t beat for a 2 and 4 year old!), a gigantic tree rivaling NYC, the most picturesque Christmas cabin with the most top notch Santa I’ve seen to date, food trucks, outdoor ice skating?!?!? AND a 360 Photo Booth!

We’ve seen these at so many weddings and events but fun fact, this was our first go at participating in the fun and it did not disappoint!! Thanks for this memory @callthegifguy

I echo libertys sentiments: “Can it always be Christmas?!”

If you’re in North Florida, don’t miss out on @christmasexperienceac ! 🎄🫶

Not a hallmark Christmas movie. It’s better! And we couldn’t love these two any more. Seth and Alexa share a love and connection that is palpable. Seth’s reaction here … literally the reason we could never stop doing this. Thank you to our couples who have invited us into your most intimate and vulnerable moments. We don’t take it lightly.
Your stories inspire us, all those around you, and everyone lucky enough to witness it 🥹

Just add this to the list of things we said we’d never do 🙃

We were never planning to do Disney, especially with the girls being this little. But now we live super close. Our dear dear friends from Pittsburgh planned a Disney trip over Thanksgiving. Annnnnd a good friend advised that a perk of Disney at this age is that it’s so real to them. Que two little ladies deep in their princess (and lightning McQueen) era and it was the perfect storm, er, recipe to take the splurge and make it happen.

While it was a LOT of things (fun, challenging, exhausting, expensive, fabulous, so much work)… it really was pretty magical. Seeing our little Cinderella Stan meet her hero in person, and be brave enough to talk with her, was pretty unparalleled. The little one obsessed with Snow White didn’t get to meet her hero, which can only mean one thing…. 😬🫣

Thankful for this time with friends that gave us enough incentive to do the thing! Naz may just have had the best time of us all (it was all four of our very ever first trip to @waltdisneyworld @disneyparks @disney !!)

What about you?! Have you been? Tell us what we need to do for our next trip 😉😉

It’s constantly a surprise the things that will give you a pang of homesickness for the known. Living and working in Pittsburgh for so many years, I had all my favorite spots and knew the city extremely well. A process that took YEARS!

While exploring all the new to us and unique spaces in our new home state can be a lot of fun, it’s also a challenge continually starting over again: With clients, and locations and all that comes along with that - where to park, walking distances from place to place, lighting, and on and on. Slowly but surely, we are finding new spots and new grooves and new friends 💛

This particular family also relocated their family last year to the same area we moved. They are also from the north! And hilariously, we both built the same house (floor plan wise). It’s been a blast sharing commonalities that draw us together. Another? They were up for venturing to the city for their family photo session!

Jacksonville was showing off last night and we are reveling in this time of year and the attributes that remind us of the draw to the area in the first place!

Our last Pittsburgh wedding of the season certainly left its mark. It felt like a family reunion alongside so many of our favorite vendors and people. Pittsburgh weather painted the most idyllic backdrop to accompany the unparalleled cityscape views from the iconic hotel Monaco rooftop. That in and of itself deserves a moment.

Emotions ran high because the love was so evident between this couple and their families. The vows. The dancing. And the father daughter first look will not soon be forgotten.

There are so many good things to say and even more good things to show you! Stay tuned for the real deal from this day and in the meantime, enjoy a little BTS look into our favorite kind of work that still doesn’t feel like work 🫶

Birthday celebrations are my favorite. And this darling girl has had us counting down to hers for MONTHS, each day asking when it would be her birthday. So much so that we finally made a numbered paper countdown to visualize the days until her big celebration. For 58 days we counted down. Until at last; the day arrives 🥰

She had many plans and wishes and it kind of feels like the superbowl of parenting to see it all come together.

Parenthood is hands down, incomparably, the most challenging journey we have been on. Yet, as it tends to go in much of life, the most rewarding and meaningful things are those that come through struggle.

It doesn’t seem fathomable that our first baby girl can be four. We often find ourselves on the seesaw of wishing for time to fast forward so we can get our heads above water, yet clinging for dear life that time slows down so we can hold onto our baby a bit longer.

Thankfully, when I get emotional about Liberty growing older, she reminds me that while she may get bigger, she’ll always be my baby 🥹🥹

As long as many of the days have felt, this particular birthday is a reminder that it all happens in a blink.

There is not much in our lives that is the same as it was four years ago. And while most of our life has been uprooted, this little one has kept us grounded. She is everything and more.

We are so thankfully for the community that surrounds us, near and far, who resoundingly showed up to celebrate our girl. 🫶🫶🫶🫶

The moment you first lay eyes on your future spouse… a story that never gets old.

If you haven’t talked about that with your partner recently, this is your sign to bring it up and share those memories of the first time you saw one another 🥰

Tis’ the season for family photos! We ventured to one of our favorite parks here in north Florida and had the dreamiest night of weather, a picturesque sunset, and a fabulous time meandering around the towering oak trees with their cascading Spanish moss.

It is always a tremendous honor to document a season of life for a family. It’s especially meaningful with this beautiful crew who has added a family member amidst moving halfway across the country, AND starting a new business venture! (Check out @therealestateographers for the best real estate photo team around!)

The past couple of years have been a wild ride! But sharing the ups and downs of expanding families and making big moves alongside this crew has been a high of our life! We adore you, Golmic fam!!

When John Mayer shows up at your wedding, you might imagine that component would steal the show. While certainly, it’s an unforgettable, once in a lifetime, show-stopping component, it was one of many for Cassidy and JD.

These two are living proof of what can happen when you open up your heart to loving again. JD’s sons delivered remarkable speeches that encapsulated the rare and epic love story of these gorgeous newlyweds.

Every moment was mesmerizing. In the words of the officiant, “If you love love, you’re in the right place.”

Forever swooning over this @nemacolin wedding celebration of grand proportions and radical love. Cheers to the newlyweds and the lifetime of loving and living that lies ahead.

“We hope you enjoy growing old with him as much as we’ve enjoyed growing up with him!”

In all of our years filming weddings, we’ve never heard this line and now it’s (happily) living rent free in our minds forevermore! Truly the sweetest sentiments from these two about their brother and we are here for it!!

Also. the champagne popping on the caboose of a trolley?! Heck yes! We can’t get enough of these newlyweds 🍾🥰

Is there anything you love that your spouse….Doesn’t?

For Nazari and myself, there are a few things that fit into this category. Atop that list is my propensity toward endurance events. Naz hates them. With a passion. Yet he has an unparalleled ability to make others dreams his own and has been by my side for quite a few of said endurance events.

The most challenging race that we did was, by far, a half Ironman. It was like adding a part time job. While I may have taken the training far more seriously, Nazari was there every step of the way.

From our experience with a marathon, one of the best parts was the actual race where thousands of people lined the streets cheering you on. Although it was so challenging, it was electric.

We imagined we’d have the same energy to carry us through the half Ironman.

Oh how wrong we were.

There was a much smaller crew completing the event. And 60 miles of bike trails are not easy to line with people. It was desolate. The race itself was more difficult than we could have ever imagined.

We ended up not doing the race together. I’m too competitive 🙃 but I never imagined how utterly alone that would make the venture.

By the time we made it to the run, there was hardly anyone left (most participants were doing shorter triathlons). The hydration stations were vacated. It was bleak.

The 13.1 mile finale was split into two laps. As I was completing my first lap, Naz was just embarking on his. We were both struggling. I felt awful that he was suffering due to something that was my goal, not his. I mentioned in passing that he could join me and cut the run in half, thinking he would easily agree.

He chuckled, and considered it. There was literally no one there to see it. Nobody but us would have known.

Yet he didn’t turn to join me. He carried on to complete the entire, agonizing race. Because he would have known.

And that speaks volumes to the man that he is.

To the hardest working, kindest, best guy - the world is so much better because of you.Thank you for all you do to raise the bar and never tapping out when life is really hard. You’re my favorite adventure.

Happy birthday Megatron! Have the best day ever!!!

Everything was different after Alex met Brian at work. There was a spark in her eye. And those who loved her noticed.

All previous relationships Alex was in never lasted past the one year mark. With Brian? She moved her life across the world to live with him in Ireland! A seven hour plane ride from everyone else they knew sealed the deal. They fell in love and never looked back.

Brian is enchanted by his bride and throughout their wedding day he couldn’t stop exclaiming what a lucky guy he is!

When you mutually find the one you believe is out of your league and know without a doubt you’re the luckiest, hold on tight.

Brian and Alex, your love is what life is all about. Thank you for inviting is into your fairytale.

For two Pitt alums who also happen to reside in Oakland, there could be no better place to tie the knot than at the iconic @heinzchapel and @theoaklanderhotel !

Bree was a radiant bride who selected the vendor dream team to bring her wedding vision to life. Being super detail oriented, she quite literally thought of *everything*. From a choreographed first dance, to her storybook wedding theme, to the idyllic weather that was behind anything you could dream of for a Pittsburgh celebration, this weekend was a dream come true and then some!

Documenting life stories alongside many of our favorite and dearest Pittsburgh vendor friends?! It doesn’t get better! We are SO happy for you and cannot wait to get your films into your hands, Bree & Utkars! This is a small snippet into the real life fairytale. Stay tuned!!

What isn’t a stand out detail regarding Mari and Kamron? These two are remarkable. Both are attorneys who first met while in law school (the same law school my dad attended!)

It didn’t take long for them, or anyone around them who knows them, to realize they had found their soulmate in one another.

Their wedding celebration was classic and timeless, with elegant and romantic elements and chic and modern touches (much like the gorgeous couple themselves!)

Their two year old golden retriever, Rooney, served as the ring bearer. And Mari closed out the reception by serenading guests with ‘Last Dance’. Dang, she can sing!!

These two set the bar high on every level. But nothing stands out more than their unwavering love and devotion to one another.

We are so happy for you, Mari & Kam!
