The event of a lifetime.
I never thought I’d be married…I don’t think it was something I really imagined for myself. But after meeting Luis and experiencing our love, it became to clear to me that he was “the one”. He proposed to me in February 2017 and just over a year later, we were formally married in London.
Our wedding was the best day of our lives. Given Luis' talent for theatre and stage design and my passion for music and putting on shows — we knew from the very beginning that we wanted to design an event that represented a creative culmination of our love. Over the course of 18 months, we both worked hard to bring that vision to life. We chose a timeless, unique venue in London with such rich history, and then crafted our wedding's theme to exemplify what we love. The final result was a 9-hour celebration, comprised of three spectacular acts. And 120 of our closest family and friends from 10 countries traveled to London to be part of the event.
To showcase the experience, and all of the love and care that went into it, we have a dedicated archive of the event. The website is filled with stories about us, our friends and families, details about the event and the three acts, the history of the venue, inspirations behind the theme, and of course photographs and video moments from the day:

Many thanks to Lisa Jane Photography, who provided us with hundreds of jaw-dropping, stunning photographs. You can view many more of the moments she captured on our dedicated wedding website.
In addition to viewing these photos, a little further down this page you can watch the video from our first dance — a choreographed number to Madonna’s “Vogue” — which segues into a slideshow from the dance party that followed. Fittingly, Pet Shop Boys’ uplifting track, “Vocal”, provides the soundtrack. The video certainly showcases the theme of happiness from the day! 🕺🏻
After our joyous wedding, we headed to Mallorca off the coast of Spain for our honeymoon. It was beyond perfect…it was paradise. Check out the collection of photos in this Flickr album or read highlights on the dedicated honeymoon page of our wedding website.

Speaking of the celebratory dance party, if you’re interested the exclusive Remark mix that concluded the day, listen to Wedlock on the Remarkable Podcast, Podbean, Soundcloud, or Mixcloud. An embedded link from Mixcloud is linked below.
Luis and I couldn’t be more thankful and thrilled for all of our family and friends who joined in on our day, and for those who helped to make it happen. It will always be a day we will never forget, and absolutely one of the best of our lives. We feel so lucky to have found each other and to share indescribable, never-ending love. Love wins, every time. 🏳️🌈
