OHEKA CASTLE WEDDING – ARETHA & JAMES
Happy Wedding Wednesday Everyone….When I first saw the beautiful images from Aretha & James’ wedding story, I immediately contacted Josh, their AMAZING photographer, Joshua Dwain Photography, and asked if I could please feature them at the cafe and share their beautiful story with Essence Online Bridal Bliss…Josh said yes and I’m so happy that he did!!
Aretha & James are truly a beautiful couple…inside and out…..they met in math class during their sophomore year in high school in 1998 and they started dating officially in 2001…now how sweet is that…they have a four year old son and yes, he is the cutest! Aretha & James were married on Memorial Day weekend at the STUNNING venue, Oheka Castle….their wedding is so timeless and filled with grace and beauty. Josh totally captured the love between them and all the happy and fun moments they shared with their families and friends….let’s check out all the lovely details on their special day….Enjoy! |
