It was a whimsical winter wonderland. We love working on concepts that bring our client’s vision to life.

Cheers to Justin and Romy!

Justin and Romy were so nervous to dance this special dance but all the nerves were in vain because everyone was swoon.

I always believe that lighting is so important for a first dance. It needs to be romantic and reflection of the music and dance.

Think we nailed it here. You were a vision Justin and Romy.

Justin and Romy were the picture of perfection. Their loved filled the room and we could all feel it.

Thank you for allowing me to walk this special journey with you it was a blessing.

This was an epic moment. One I’ll never forget.

When the rice paper went ‘bang’ the party began and the dancing didn’t stop until the sun was long gone.
