“Live long, the magic we made.”

These two. When two people make it their daily goal to make the person they love the most happier than they were the day before, everything just simply works. That’s exactly how we feel about Bethany and Nick. It’s obvious that loving and caring for each other is an understatement. Throughout the day, they exchanged glances, embraces and dances. But to do this right, we have to recap from the top.

Bethany and her girls stayed at the Carriage House Hotel prior to the wedding that day, and as we walked in, we felt the hospitality immediately from everyone present. So much detail was put into the day, including a personal favorite, a hand written letter Nick wrote to Bethany speaking of his devotion to her, ever-growing respect for her and his longing to grow old with her.

Nick, you are one heck of a writer.

Everyone close by who could hear Bethany reading it aloud a second and third time was moved to tears. Grooms-to-be, take notes. Props to you, Nick.

After drying all of our eyes, we boarded the trolley and headed for the ceremony downtown, where rings were exchanged and lifelong promises were made to keep.

We then headed to La Marquise, perfectly situated in Parc Lafayette where good times and many, many guests eagerly awaited the newlyweds. About halfway through the night, we snuck outside with Bethany and Nick where we able to get some fresh air, chat about honeymoon adventures and of course, take photos of just the two of them. Thank you for setting aside time for photos like these, as they will be some of the most important ones you’ll look back on as years pass by. It was such a wonderful reception that we had the honor of documenting. And who doesn’t love confetti for an exit?

Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Sapeinza. You throw quite the party.
