• Real Weddings

Many say that long distance relationships cannot work, but Ana and Guy proved all the theories wrong with their cross contential love. From their first encounter of studying abroad in Europe, to Ana's hometown of NYC, all the way to Guy's home base of Europe they made the uncompromising journey of love.
Their final destination - Holland where friends and family flew from all around the world for Ana and Guy's purple and pink wedding. You must read on to hear more about this pink and purple wedding. As always, you can view more details in the full gallery here, all amazingly captured by Anouschka Rokebrand Photography.

Ana made all the decorations herself. She folded airplanes for the ceremony venue which were hung in the sky with clouds. Yellow pompoms were hung on the white chairs they had rented especially for the day. Even the reserved cards on the chairs and their wedding invite had the travel theme included by airmail stripes incorporated in them.

A lot of the elements were hand made so they cost less but also required a lot of time and effort. In the end, our final cost was 28,000€.
