paradise weddingWe’ve all heard of the Match.com fairytale romances but this one lived up to its magical Made in Paradise Weddings Splendor. We were honored to have witnessed and captured the most fabulous moments of the best day of Marcus and Kristy’s lives. From the rustic surroundings to the grace and elegance of the decor, this wedding was one for the record books.

 

Maui Models“I knew Kristy was the one after the first night we hung out. I didn’t want to leave her and told her by the second date I’d marry her. Id been praying for her and God made it happen when the time was right.” We’ve had the pleasure of knowing Marcus for years and those words pour straight from his heart.

When asked of Kristy when she knew Marcus would be THE ONE for her, she replied, “I knew Marcus was the one after we went to church for the first time and I saw what a true, deep, genuine spirit he had. I’d never met someone so real and so full of love. His priorities are in line and I knew my heart would be safe with him. I’d never felt that type of connection before and from then on I didn’t want to be without him.”

Seattle Wedding PhotographersThe love between this couple is evident from the way they can laugh together, the telling of secrets between each other with only a glance, and the respect that fills any physical distance between this beautiful bride and groom. On their one year anniversary, Marcus lowered himself to his knee and simply whispered, “Will you?” to his future bride. Just like a match made in Heaven, these two agreed to join lives and become one in God’s eyes.

 

Wedding PhotographerPicture if you will, a rustic wedding set in a beautiful countryside surrounded by forest – a little bit of country smoothed with a little bit of modern. In walks a most beautiful bride approaching her handsome groom. Think of Cinderella with her lovely blue-dressed bridesmaids and charming groomsmen creating a path to this bride’s enchanting new future.

Escorted by her adoring Grandfather, he was only too proud to be witness to this blessing. The two families celebrated as one and the magic of the night continued well after the sun had dipped behind the trees and the stars splattered the sky in their honor.

 

Wedding momentsThe fun continued with dancing, drinks, fantastic catering and A DJ that played music up until the very last minute. Watching these families work together to put on this amazing wedding shows how they are no longer separated by blood lines, but combined as new kindred spirits. Hawaii Wedding Photographers
