Patrick and Tess met studying abroad in Madrid their sophomore year of college. Who knew it would take traveling thousands of miles away for their paths to cross. Through living just a floor away from each other, their love story blossomed amidst their time abroad! Tess shared that her favorite thing about Patrick was that "whenever he is around, I always feel at ease, at home, and safe. He just makes every situation and occasion better by being around!". We loved watching their romance throughout this process. Tess had a clear vision for her wedding—a classic black and white aesthetic. Every detail was intentionally curated to bring that vision to life. The sweetheart table was adorned with a breathtaking sea of white anemones. Each menu featured meticulously hand-tied black bows, and the reception table scapes were a perfect monochrome dream, from the florals and candles to the flatware. The result was an atmosphere that felt timeless, sophisticated, and deeply personal to the couple. For their day I focused on timeless imagery and capturing their family members. I also wanted to highlight Tess' stunning gown. She felt like royalty and I wanted to remember that forever!
