Monica + Ramez {Los Angeles, California}

Mr. + Mrs. Ibrahim

If you’ve ever met Monica + Ramez {and all their sweet family and friends}, you’d know exactly how special and loving their big day was. I don’t know if I’ve ever been to a wedding before where the groom and bride were showered with so much love and selfless attention on them {throughout the ENTIRE day}. My heart truly melted watching the amount of love between these newlyweds, their family, and their friends. That is what a wedding is truly about …. a celebration of love, family, and friendship.

{Oh, and if you’ve never been to an Egyptian reception … you’re missing out! From the food, to {ALL}the dancing, to the music … they know how to throw the perfect celebration! So much fun!}

Monica and Ramez, thank you so much for trusting me to capture your engagement session and big day. You’re both so special to me! Have the BEST time ever in Hawaii!

xoxo,

Mel
