Surprise! Yes, I'm back and I'm married! My boyfriend of thirteen years and I had our civil wedding last month, February 22. We decided to have our civil wedding on the very same date of our church wedding (2.22.14) next year. Our civil wedding was very intimate, celebrated only with our dearest family. Imagine a place decorated with white balloons, white candles and white flowers. It was the perfect simple and quirky civil wedding I've always wanted. It definitely defines our style!
I love our gold wedding rings from Miladay. It matches my gold engagement ring (Miladay also) with a perfect round diamond only. Very classy and timeless when worn together, so beautiful! By the way, these photos were taken by my sister, Vianca Soleil. She designed the civil wedding, from picking my modern cabbage flower, to choosing color schemes and everything. I'm really thankful for having a very supportive family. And most importantly, for having a loving, caring and understanding husband, John Carlos Prieto. I feel so happy and blessed every single day! So now that our simple x quirky civil wedding is done, victorian x modern church wedding, NEXT!!!
The Niagara waterfalls is by far the most powerful scenery I have ever seen in my life! It is considered as the largest and most visited waterfalls in North America. Its wild beauty is totally incomparable! Riding the world's famous Maid of the Mist was such an exciting experience to get a better feel of the Canadian and American side falls. Hearing and feeling the water rush right in front of your eyes was unforgettable!
I still dream of coming back to that very moment. It was indeed an inspiring thrill of a lifetime! Flying from New York to Buffalo, touring Niagara for a day and getting all wet (including my camera) while capturing unusual perspective was so worth it, hehe! And yes, that's me pairing a Maid of the Mist uniform with a lucite Mango sunglasses, together with my beautiful engagement ring and with an equally beautiful backdrop!
