Ciara and Joe, who met when they were 11 and began their relationship as each other's prom dates, were married in July. Unhappy with how their wedding photos turned out, they decided to do a portrait session in September and they're so glad they did! "Our wedding was never about having a 'perfect' traditional wedding", they said "but weren't initially happy with how our original wedding photographs came out. We'd put so much thought into the look and atmosphere of our day, but the photographs didn't capture it in the way we'd imagined."

It happened in Las Vegas at Sure Thing Chapel, although they told their friends they were attending their joint bachelorette trip! At 3:30pm, after an hour of photos around town, the group found themselves standing outside a wedding chapel. Their photographer had ‘just happened’ to suggest stopping there, but inside Lady Elvis was waiting to marry them.

Las Vegas weddings are some of our favourites, but its undeniable that a lot of them have the same aesthetic. Rare Hearts Studio wanted to create something with a different edge - a little darker, with nods to their Latino heritage. Their starting point was the Sacred Heart, reworked through a queer Latino lens and layered with lace, devotional imagery, blood red flowers and incredible cakes. The concept gave the team a way to draw upon their cultural background while creating something for couples who feel detached from the standard Vegas look.
