NIAH & MARQUESE

“Our wedding day was an intimate moment with our closest family and friends. It was filled with the love, culture, and quirkiness that has always been in our relationship. We are high school sweethearts, so it was the culmination of over a decade of love and laughter.

“Our wedding’s theme was a combination of Coming to America, meets Black Fae Day, meets Buckingham! It was the intended goal to have a lavish, culturally rich wedding.

“Some of the most unique elements of our wedding was that we did away with westernized formal clothing, coordinated with our musicians to play our favorite nerdy scores (Final Fantasy, Disney, Zelda, Game of Thrones), and included traditions that we important to us.

“The only thing I would change is that I wish we could have afforded a videographer! It was such a beautiful day!” ~ Niah
