Married: Stef & Dave – Destination Punta Cana
She wore flowers in her hair. Small and delicate. And as soon as she put them in…anyone could see she was the kind of girl who should always have flowers in her hair. She stared into the small, round mirror as if she was seeing herself for the first time. As she was and as she was always meant to be. There in the reflection, she almost didn’t recognize herself. But somehow she just knew, this felt right.

Married: Stef & Dave
If you’ve been around this blog any length of time, I don’t have to tell you how we feel about Stef & Dave. They watch The Office, drink pineapply margaritas, and had us at hello. I mean, they got us custom made shoot sac covers with the J&M logo emblazened across them for crying out loud. They. complete. us. :) They were married last month in a destination wedding at the Majestic Elegance in Punta Cana. And as the cool teal water splashed against the baby powder sand, we watched them pledge their lives to each other. We hoped as they hoped. Prayed as they prayed. And could see every wonderful thing for their future together that they could see. Because it was evident. And anyone could see…this was how they were always meant to be. Stef & Dave….it goes without saying how we feel about you. So we’ll just say that we love you guys, and can’t wait to hang out again!
So much love,
J&M

There was leopard print on the bouquet too, as well as a locket with a picture of her grandma in it.

Beach weddings are the best. I love how Steph incorporated some leopard into her wedding and how she had a locket with her grandmother’s photo on her bouquet. I love sentiments like that. Love the photos of Steph & Dave dancing and the photo of Dave rockin’ his shades with the parasol. ;o)
You two are UNBELIEVABLE!! You captured my daughter’s natural beauty on her special day….and of course, Dave’s beauty, too! I cried when I read what you wrote about them ..l..my sentiments exactly…they are such a wondeful couple. Thanks for capturing the memories….we were SO glad you were there to share it and now I know why Stef wanted you and noone else!!
