Easily one of the most fulfilling things about being a wedding planner is the joy and love you see radiating from the couple when they are officially married.

Candace + Shaun had a glow about them the entire day! They had a whirlwind romance upon meeting in New York. Candace was on a fun trip with her girlfriends there when Shaun approached her. In a nutshell, the couple dated long distance for a year before Shaun proposed exactly a year later with a picnic in Central Park. Since then, this New Yorker has moved to Dallas for his lady love. At the wedding reception, Shaun took to Texas by wearing a cowboy hat…and he looked pretty good in it too!

They also added cultural touches to their wedding since Candace is originally from Louisiana and Shaun has roots from Trinidad. Her cake and wedding gobo had the fleur de Lis, and their music selections included Zydeco (a nod to Louisiana) and Soca (from Trinidad).
