Some weddings carry a special kind of magic, and Mei & Ben’s day was one of them. The celebration took place right on the beach, surrounded by dunes and ocean views — the perfect setting for a day filled with joy, music, and tradition.
Mei & Ben are an American couple, and their wedding beautifully reflected both their love story and their rich cultural backgrounds. The day included Albanian and Jewish rituals, blending traditions that made the celebration truly unique and meaningful.
The weather could not have been better: a bright sky, soft breeze, and warm light that made every photograph glow. The day began with an intimate First Look before guests arrived, giving Mei & Ben a quiet moment together before the whirlwind of the celebration. Soon, family and friends gathered with their feet in the sand for a beautiful beachside ceremony. As petals filled the air at the recessional, it was clear this was going to be an unforgettable evening.
Cocktail hour was filled with laughter, hugs, and family portraits, followed by a lively reception that perfectly reflected the couple’s cultures and personalities. From the joyful Hora to the energy of Albanian dancers, every part of the evening brought people together in celebration. Their first dance set the tone for a night full of music, love, and movement.
Documenting this day felt effortless — everything aligned: the location, the weather, and the warmth of everyone present.
