Samantha & Lalo
Some weddings feel even more personal when the day begins at home. For Samantha & Eduardo, there was no shared suite. Each of them got ready in their own home, gathered by their families, and the morning unfolded exactly that way: close, warm, and full of the people who matter most.
Eduardo, or Lalo to his friends, is one of our own. He's a close friend in the wedding industry and a registered officiant who has married so many couples. In July 2023, it was finally his turn. Their ceremony took place at San Cristobal Magallanes, followed by a reception at Monarca Events Center. On the wedding day, we also stepped inside McAllen Performing Arts Center for some amazing formal photos.
This gallery tells their whole story: an engagement session at UTRGV, the wedding day itself, and a Rock the Dress session at Hacienda San Manuel. Photographs to frame and a film to rewatch, from a day that put someone who has celebrated so many other couples at the center of his own.
