Finally a fantatic video without the cheeze factor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please don't settle for the over the top... cheezy cheezy video. We have all seen the videos that look like a bad soap opera, and your bright eyed girl friend who is gushing over her uber-romantic slowmotion tears on film.
Well..... those days are over.
Let me introduce you to the fabulous team of Monachetti.
Michael Eller and Andrew Bowser

Real Bride Stephanie and her new hubby Ulises

Better late than never, but still very late (so sorry stephanie!) We introduce to you Real bride Stephanie and her hubby Ulises. The fantastic team at Perez Photography took the following shots that we have shared with you.
Stephanie and Ulises exchanged their vows at St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church in Dallas.
We love these simple yet dramatic details.

Dramatic lighting by Lite Dallas created the perfect mood for a rocking reception. Perfectly lit monograms decorated the dance floor.
The W hotel in Dallas was an incredible reception location!
What a cute little getaway outfit! We LOVE.

The day after they met met up with Perez Photography again to capture some of the cutest shots we've ever seen. Such JOY!


Rather than wearing a birdcage veil, Stephanie custom designed a hairpiece with french netting, and an ivory feathered flower for a very nice vintage look.
How cute is this red ruffled bolero jacket!
A big thanks to Perez Photography and DallasBride.wordpress.com who put together a very cool posting with details from this wedding. (pictures originally found on these sites)

Meet our featured bride, the beautiful Danielle Joyce

The Venue
The ceremony was held at the Parkstead House in London on December 20, 2009.

Her style
Danielle wore and ivory strapless gown and a fur over her right shoulder. Her wedding gown was accented with a bow on the back, and in a very sweet touch, her bridesmaids gown had a very cute coordinating bow on the front.
Her birdcage veil
