It was a beautiful November day in Dubai when we continued to shoot the second day of Ivy & Rafael’s wedding celebration.
The bride was getting ready with her bridesmaids at the Four Seasons Resort with their room overlooking the stunning skyline of Dubai downtown. Rafael, on the contrary, was getting dressed at home, where the love story of the couple had begun. Ivy and Rafael lived in the neighboring houses with adjacent gardens. One day Ivy’s cat trespassed on Rafael’s garden and got chased by his dog. Both owners ran to the noise and met each other when Rafael heroically saved the cat. That was the fairy tale beginning of a beautiful love story that led to this wedding day.
Thanks to the outgoing and quirky personalities of the support team the morning preparation of the couple was filled with fun and laughter. There were also some heart-melting moments of tears when the bride was about to set off to the church. The air was filled with definite sense of excitement, and despite perhaps a tiny undercurrent of nerves, we could tell that everyone was looking forward to the day immensely.
The touching family blessing was followed by the formal wedding ceremony at St Mary’s Church in Oud Meta. Focusing on sincere emotions of the couple and the guests, we had a glorious time capturing the beautiful moments of Ivy and Rafael's nuptial union.
After a short portrait photo session around the downtown the couple arrived at Armani Hotel Dubai for the evening banquet. What could have been a more iconic culmination of this wedding than celebrating the reception in the heart of Dubai with the view of Burj Khalifa tower at one side and the famous Dubai fountains at the other? The venue was tastefully decorated by Ali Bakhtiar Designs and a smooth running order was coordinated by Jennifer from Exquisite Events.
The evening was lit up with dancing, touching speeches, live music, spectacular display of fountains and lots of joyful laughter. And on that happy note we would like to wish our couple a long and happy life together and for their pets to get along and to never quarrel again.
