Liz + Frank, oh Liz + Frank! First of all, usually during meetings, I try extremely hard to keep my typical professional cool. But Liz’s meeting was a different story! Let’s just say she stated that she was pretty much into HP as much as I am. So after some squeals + squeaks (and maybe tears of joy as I got to my car), I was ecstatic when she asked if we could work together on their special day! So YES, I am full on feeling a Leslie Knope + Anne Perkins moment right here. OR well – better yet: Harry Potter + Ron Weasley.

(As a matter of fact – when I arrived on their wedding day her bubbly, adorable self was watching the Chamber of Secrets as her makeup finished.)

Moving onto how beautiful her + Frank’s love is: They are that wonderfully happy couple you meet in a bar or walking down a city street. The sparks that flew when they stared into each other’s eyes tugged on all my heart strings. I loved hearing the story of how Frank’s friends didn’t believe Liz even existed until they met her. They danced under romantic string lights on an apple farm, and basically it was pure perfection.
It was – taking advice from Ron Weasley – like following the butterflies 🙂

Enjoy some of my favorites from their special day! // xo Mariss
