I have been excited for Malena & Ryan's wedding for the longest time! I mean super fun couple at unique location, copper fountain, black diamonds and Cuban cigars & music, ceviche and decadent petits fours ... it was all that fantastic! Two brilliant photographers Nadine Rovner and Erik Clausen a.k.a. POSER joined me to capture all this madness.

Old Cuban tradition (instead of bouquet toss), all the single women pull strings out of the cake. There's a gold ring attached to one of these!
Malena's Dad saved this very special Cognac for years to be opened at most special occasion:

The wedding took place at most unique location: The Foundry
Make up, by super talented and lovely Laura Nadeau
A designer- Genius, Dawn was responsible for fantastic details and styling of the Foundry space!
As seen on Malena & Ryan's wedding invitation: 'A symbol for Infinite Balance- a state of equilibrium, the degree to which all the attributes are in HARMONY, none either too prominent or deficient.'
