Gabriela & Paul
Gabriela and Paul’s wedding weekend was filled with meaningful moments and intimate celebrations. It all began with a welcome party at Katie’s Pizza and Pasta, where family and friends gathered to mingle and kick off the festivities in a relaxed, warm atmosphere. The following day, their wedding ceremony at the iconic Jewel Box was nothing short of magical. The couple shared a heartfelt first look and exchanged vows in front of their closest loved ones, creating a deeply personal and beautiful moment.
After the ceremony, guests moved to Zia’s for an intimate luncheon, where laughter and joy filled the room. The afternoon provided a moment of rest, before everyone gathered at the National Blues Museum for a delicious BBQ and a surprise jam session from the couple’s talented group of musicians (this included the groom). The night wrapped up with a sweet treat; Ted Drewes and other St. Louis desserts. This offered a taste of local flavor to cap off an unforgettable weekend of celebration and love.
Gabriela and Paul’s wedding was truly one-of-a-kind, with the couple choosing an intimate destination wedding that captured the essence of their love. One of our favorite moments was their first look, where they shared an incredibly joyful and emotional moment, filled with anticipation and excitement. We were also captivated by the bride’s unique rosette shoes, which added a personal touch to her stunning look. Another cherished moment was the bride’s sweet interaction with her siblings, a tender expression of love that made the day even more memorable.
