It’s hard to believe that just three months ago ~ Ani + TJ celebrated their wedding celebration! Recently, they wanted to get dressed up in their wedding best and have some more fun!

Was it a “deja vu” moment when TJ saw his Bride all over again in her amazing Alfred Angelo bridal gown? I have a feeling that it is a moment that he would love to experience at least once a year ~ anniversary (hint~hint)

You may recall their wedding that was featured last year in our Blog ~ “Through The Eyes Of Love” It’s well worth seeing again to get a glimpse at their amazing wedding experience.

They had an amazing engagement session and to check out their very sweet proposal story ~ He Did So Good!

Enjoy Ani + Tj’s beautiful day after session by playing the video below:

Enjoy your weekend!

I know that all Brides love weddings! For months you’re consumed with creating the perfect experience for you and your Hubby ~ family and friends! Finally that day arrives ~ your Wedding Day! Breakfast with the girls ~ you’re the Princess as your every wish and desire is attended to by your amazing Bridesmaids, the make up artists, hair stylists and Mom! Before you know it you’re walking down the aisle to your soon to be Husband and Married! The hugs, kisses, tears and well wishes fly by you as the night flies by faster than the speed of light! And then the last dance is announced and it’s over ~ and you’re wondering ~ I was just getting ready a little while ago ~ just getting married ~ just having my first dance with my new husband ~ just cutting our wedding cake and that’s it! You don’t want it to end and you really wish you could stay in your dress a little longer ~ What IF you could get dressed all over again in your beautiful wedding gown, see your husband in his tux and be the Bride and Groom one more time? Well you can! And that’s exactly what Yari + Ren did!

You may recall Yari and Renan’s amazing wedding featured on our Blog recently ~ Well the day of the wedding was a flurry of excitement, anticipation and not enough time to create some amazing portraits of this lovely couple and so we recently got together at the Four Seasons Hotel in Miami where Mom delighted in styling her hair once more and the wonderful Jessie Sierra doing the make up!

Those of you that know me know that when it comes to my Brides ~ I am inspired by them! There is nothing more exciting for me than to emotionally invest myself in your day and then throughout the wedding day experience capturing countless moments that I know will bring joy, laughter and tears of excitement for years to come! But then to have a day to spend with a Bride and Groom and create beautiful portraits ~ no time constraints ~ no worries about getting the dress a little dirty ~ no wedding day stress ~ inspires me to inspire you!

So it was with Yari + Renan that we had carte blanche at the beautiful Four Seasons Hotel in Miami and then we took off for some dynamic locations in Miami. Before you know it this day too passed quickly but not before we created some amazing images!

Check out the slide show below for a delightful experience ~

Those eyes!~ They are the windows to Ani’s Heart ~ A Heart that is shared with TJ’s. But back to the eyes ~ they are beautiful, expressive and I love the way Ani kept glancing at TJ throughout the ceremony. Eyes that strike at the passionate heart as does Cupid’s arrows ~ TJ never had a chance!

But then again neither did Ani ~ it is said that there is someone for every one and these two are made for each other!

You may recall the engaging engagement story that accompanied their engagement session. Hundreds of rose petals ~ chocolate kisses and an endearing proposal spelled out on the bed with more rose petals ~ I knew when they shared their love story with me that I was in for an incredible wedding experience!

So real is her smile ~ her love shining from her eyes ~ amazing!

Their wedding took place at the inspirational St Patrick Catholic Church in Miami Beach ~ just knowing that I am photographing a wedding here just gets my creative mind flowing with inspiration!

Today I want to share with you the La Antigua, Guatemala destination wedding of Jennifer and Rolando. Rolando would spend summers with family in Guatemala and when they started to think where they wanted to get married—La Antigua it was! Established in 1543, La Antigua is one of the best preserved and charming of colonial cities in Spanish America.

They chose the Casa Santo Domingo, once a beautiful convent to have their wedding weekend with a tight group of family and friends. The weekend started off with a rehearsal dinner at the Meson Panza Verde. What a beautiful restaurant! Several wonderful toasts and one of Rolando’s Ta-Ta’s (aunt) taking a dip in a fountain endeared me to this wedding and I knew that this was going to be a fabulous wedding to photograph.

If a wedding is like a cake then the Day After Session was the icing! Wedding day schedules quite often allow a few moments with the Bride and Groom and to have a couple of hours with Jennifer and Rolando was heaven. We took off from Casa Santo Domingo in a pair of Tuk-Tuks. A Tuk-Tuk is a small passenger vehicle that resembles a three-wheeled motorcycle with a metal or canvas frame. As we cruised along ancient stone streets, we found wonderful arches, doorways and numerous little nooks and crannies to photograph in.

Life should be an adventure and Jennifer and Rolando’s Guatemala Destination Wedding is an amazing start to a great marriage! So enjoy this amazing wedding slide show and thanks for showing up on my Blog for the latest adventures of Roy Llera Photographers!

Have a great day!
