First beautiful micro-wedding this year has been sent out A new favorite hidden gem. @montalvospecialevents is definitely a spot couples should consider when looking up wedding venues!

Thank you @weddingchicks for featuring our publication! As children, we learn of marriage through countless stories and fables across every culture. The strong and steadfast groom; the gorgeous and innocent bride. A theme runs deep, setting a tone that has defined traditional marriage roles for hundreds of years, if not more. However, cultures evolve and norms do shift, and in today’s world, women are rightfully gaining strength and command in almost every aspect of society,... staging the foothold of a cultural revolution that will be defined by equal share in the world for us and our children to come. In this way, we wanted this wedding styled shoot to personify the evolution of our culture in a way that celebrates both the beauty and the power of women.
