Vanessa & Gerardo – I am not sure where to start with these two. They might be two of the happiest people I’ve ever met, two of the sweetest people I’ve ever met, or maybe just two of the most in love people I’ve ever met. All of these superlatives are exceptional and worth talking about about, and all of them apply to Vanessa & Gerardo. She’s sassy and bold, but melts completely when she looks at him. He’s a cut up and a jokester, but he lives for her. Normally I write a lot about how my brides and grooms feel about each other but today I think I would be remiss if I didn’t focus some attention on how this pair make others feel. Together they are a magnetic and they made me want to be a part of their bridal party, to stay and dance the night away with them, to basically become one of their inner circle. I feel just a little bit special to have been chosen by Vanessa and Gerardo to capture their day because to be around them is to know laughter and happiness, to know friendship and warmth. To know them is to know love.
