Stephen & Andrea | Dia De Los Muertos Wedding | Stern Grove

December 11, 2013

These two are adorable, in love and AWESOME together.  They met some years ago at a bar…but not the way most people meet in a bar…they were co-workers at the fabulous 540 Club.  She fell in love with his work ethic (I’m not kidding, she really said that!), he fell in love with her and her questionable cooking skills, they bonded over their love of tequila and the rest is history.

I LOVE Stern Grove and am always thrilled to have the opportunity to shoot there and when you combine that with Dia De Los Muertos themed wedding, I’m in Heaven.  Andrea’s Grandmother passed away on  November 2nd a few years ago and so this wedding was a beautiful way to celebrate their new love and the lives of the people no longer with them.

Stephen and Andrea did a fabulous job with all their DIY favors and decorations, this wedding was a true group effort and it went off without a hitch.  From the decorated wine glasses the doubled as favors to the decorated salt for the tequila shots, to the adorable themed  match boxes to the flowers that Andrea did with her friend and planner everything had their personal touch.

I recently asked Andrea how married life was treating her and she responded: “Oh it’s great! Much like the living together life with pretty rings. :)”  That put a huge smile on my face, what a perfect  description.  Congratulations you two!

A Huge thank you to Matthew Gillooley for being a fantastic second shooter!
