matthew & michelle (married)

There’s just something about a Southern wedding. The mossy oaks… The salty air… The joie de vivre of the family and friends, gathered in the places that hold the deepest meaning and memories of their lives. Michelle and Matthew experienced all this at their recent wedding in Panama City Beach, Florida. The couple said their vows in a Catholic ceremony before sharing their first communion with one another. Afterwards, they rode across town in vintage cars to their family’s private residence, where they were toasted by loved ones and danced the night away. The guests were treated to special musical performances by the Irish violin duo, Sephira, and ended the night with  a private fireworks show over the water. Words do not do justice to the beauty of the day, so here are a few images that I wanted to share with you. Please join me in wishing the new Mr. and Mrs. D’Isernia a huge congratulations and many years of happiness!
