Alyssa and Josh’s love story began back in 2011 at a hometown bar called Le Terminus. It almost didn't happen thanks to a cheesy pick-up line, but fate (and a shared English class) had other plans. From Josh waiting at a bus stop in the rain to Alyssa offering him a ride home, their journey has been one of perseverance, shared adventures, and a house full of love with their golden retriever, Georgia, and their two cats.


After 11 years together, they chose the breathtaking Sky Terrace at Royalton Riviera Cancun to say "I do." It was a magical peak for a couple that has grown up together. The modern, panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea provided a stunning backdrop for a ceremony that was a decade in the making.


From the emotional vows high above the ocean to the high-energy celebration that followed, every moment was a testament to their enduring connection. As their destination wedding photographers, it was a true pleasure to capture a love that started in a simple bar and blossomed into this incredible lifetime of happiness.
