From the adorable ring bearer in his tiny Bentley, to the rocking dance floor, these two were all smiles all day. We are so lucky to be able to be a part of so many celebrations, and it’s days like these that make it truly special.

Aris and Leslie danced the night away with family and friends after their beautiful ceremony and reception at Cafe Brauer. They did not let the brisk weather stop them from enjoying an outdoor ceremony located on the South Loggia followed by a cocktail hour on the North Loggia. Dinner followed with speeches, toasts and kisses. Once dancing kicked off, the guests were provided with costumes and continued to dance the night away. Congratulations Leslie and Aris!
