One thing that stuck out at this wedding was the fusion of two cultures: Cuban and French. From the cuisine that Chef Thierry prepared to the music and then the first toast, both cultures were seen throughout the details of the wedding. The ceremony was held at St. Francis Catholic Church and the reception was at The Shane Center in Miami Beach. The Shane Center's ballroom is a blank canvas which allowed Christina to make the space her own. Christina draped the room with white and yellow accents. I especially love the paper globes that hung on top of the dance floor. The paper globes gave a splash of interest to the photographs of their first dance which turned out to be my favorite pictures of the night. I also especially had a great time at this wedding because we were able to see old friends from high school. I felt more part of the crowd than a photographer which made the experience of photographing Cristina and Max's wedding so much fun. I loved the moments that we captured during the toast and the first dance. This is a couple who you can tell are genuine and compassionate towards others. I also saw a glimpse of how wonderful a person Cristina is. The first toast were given by two of her best friends who spoke so highly of her and such sweet words were said. I can see the love that the guests had for this couple and more importantly the love that this couple had for each other.
Because of school Cristina and Max have been jumping around quite a bit and are planning on moving to France in the near future. Cristina and Max: Where ever you may end up I wish you nothing but the best as you follow your hearts.
