Elopement at The Smith Center Las Vegas

April 23, 2020

This is a true love story. The one we hope for as young kids. Boy meets girl, they fall in love, they have a family and live happily ever after. You know how it goes… This story warmed my heart so deeply I was honored to be a wedding photographer to witness such a big event for their little family. A couple in a stone-walled corridor with green vines; the woman wears a white dress and floral crown.

Corina and Diego – a Romance Novel

Corina and Diego met in High School. Corina approached Diego on the first day of school. “Diego stood out with his height and his suave hair,” says Corina. And as fairytales go, ‘little did she know that meeting would change her life forever’. Fun fact about this couple, they both love chicken wings and started a Tuesday tradition of going to Buffalo Wild Wings to gossip or talk about anything on their minds. After years of dating through some of the most trying and formative years of their life, their love never wavered. They grew up together never trying to change each other, but supporting each other and challenging each other to grow into the best versions of themselves. This is what love is all about, and it’s a beautiful thing. A groom lifts his bride in a romantic embrace on a paved courtyard surrounded by tall trees and hedges. A bride wearing a floral crown embraces her groom in a navy suit on a paved walkway with green hedges. A bride and groom dance on a city plaza in front of a building with large windows and ornate railings.

After their magical engagement they had a hard time deciding on a wedding date. Then Corina came up with a bold plan, “One day I woke up and thought, I don’t want to wait anymore.” Two days later Corina and Diego had a Downtown Elopement at the Smiths Center in Las Vegas, NV. It was breathtaking. Corina wore a stunning sleek gown that fit her to perfection and paired it with a flower crown for a modern bridal look. Keeping it simple made for a knockout look. Carlos wore a coordinating matching their son’s. The colors of the modern building and a bright colored mural was perfect to hold such an intimate and moving affair. The family looked incredibly happy to finally be married! Now I know these three are living happily ever after.
