Amanda & Giezi are married, after an amazing weekend wedding in Baja, Mexico.

Amanda & Giezi are both very fun and caring people, and they know how to put on a good wedding. Festivities began a few days before the wedding, and included good food, plenty of sun, bocce ball,  and a group of awesome people, all making the whole event a blast to be a part of.

Much thanks to both of their families for their generous hospitality and fun times shared! Here are a few photos and my attempt at summarizing our time together. Congratulations Amanda and Giezi.

A little relaxation was key to making this wedding what it was, the location, delicious food and tasty drinks all made it easy to do just that.
