What can I say about this wedding? It's difficult to find words to describe it.
When Melissa & Michael texted us with a picture last year, we immediately fell in love with the beautiful couple. An African wedding in Hamburg - we were excited!
Usually we love small, intimate weddings: chic, DIY, bohemian, or vintage style, with lots of love for details and decoration; a celebration with the closest friends & family. Melissa & Michael's wedding was completely the opposite, but without a doubt was also incredible! 700 guests from all over the world traveled to Germany for this wedding!
On that day, we all had moments that surprised us, gave us goosebumps, and made us shed tears from emotion or laughter. Some moments where chaotic and joyful like when Michael and his groomsmen were dressing each other and dancing through the hotel room as they got ready. Other moments were somber and heart-warming, such as the beautiful and nervous Melissa getting her makeup done, or the touching prayer her father recited while donning the veil { even if we didn't understand a word }.
And then there was the actual ceremony and reception! The MANY colorful dressed people from the church congregation, the dancing entrance of the parents, groom, groomsmen and bridesmaids, the personal speeches of the 7!!! ministers, all the touching speeches from family and friends, and last but not least the BIG surprise from Michael to his Melissa: A famous musician from Ghana, who really brought the party to life!
Melissa & Michael, thank you so much for allowing us to experience all this, It was amazing!
