Driving downtown in Miami on that bright and sunny afternoon, the urban scene felt like an ordinary day. It may have seem the usual Saturday but I was truly excited. I will be meeting and documenting Jackie and Carlos’ event of a lifetime and I just felt that it would truly be a memorable moment.
When we walked in Jackie’s room at the Double Tree Hotel in downtown Miami, you could feel the warmth of her smile and her contagious excitement. She was already starting her make up and all her bridesmaids as well as her relatives were all busy with the preparations and running around to help her out.
so let’s take a look at the images 
oh btw this beautiful view of Double Tree Grand Hotel Biscayne Bay’s atrium is impossible to miss. its a nice view but the closer you get to it you’ll feel a little weird
We got to Carlos’ room and you could see he is tensed mixed with excitement. The presence of his great buddies helped and eased out Carlos a bit and to make things better how bout just some fun times!
Now, it was game time! We headed to Christ Fellowship Church in Downtown Miami.
As the ceremony was about to start, last minute touch ups were made and Jackie’s bridesmaids and relatives were there to the rescue.
Jackie’s dress was gorgeous but when I saw the final and whole piece I could really see that it is a dress that has her name all over it.
The ceremony went smoothly and my favorite part was when they said their vows personally.
oh the Christ Fellowship Church in Downtown has very nice view on their interior and the candles really accentuated the beauty of the architecture.
and of course the BIG KISS!
When we came to the reception everybody was just so happy and just ready to party! so with big applause we welcomed the newly weds!
their first dance.. look out the happy faces of all the people surrounding them!
After their first dance, Jackie’s and her dad had their turn and so far it was the best moment that I had ever witnessed of the bride and dad’s dance. Jackie’s dad surprised her with a dubbed and recorded dedication for her.
and who would not be touched by that?
and we could see everybody just taking in this wonderful moment
Next was also Carlos and his mom’s turn.
then it was time to party!!
I was more blown away when I learned that the beautifully orchestrated and well planned wedding was through the big efforts of Jackie’s dad and I really congratulate and give props to him!
Carlos and Jackie cheers to both of you!
