So many weddings start with a grand venue, expensive outfits and a colour scheme planned down to the last detail.

Anna and Victor’s love story began in Watamu, a coastal town in Kenya, where they met through a mutual friend.

"Turns out, more spontaneous decisions were about to come,” She never went back to Nairobi, and she never went back to Germany. Instead, she and Victor built a life together in Kenya.

When Daria slipped into a vintage Mark Ingham gown, everything suddenly made sense. The dress fit as if it had been made for her, and with that, all the uncertainty about how and where to celebrate their wedding disappeared. She and Kaleb had considered everything from a formal church ceremony to an elopement in the mountains, but none of it had felt quite right. The dress, however, made the decision for them. They would marry at San Francisco City Hall and end the night in their own way at the Phoenix Hotel.
