When we started speaking with Junia & Andres about featuring their wedding, we were so excited! They are an incredible couple with incredible taste.
How did you and the groom meet?
Junia: Aye…there’s a very cute and epic story that follows whenever anyone asks how we met and how long we’ve been together. For this reason I wrote a short story about how we met and had it on our wedding website for all our guests to read.
Paratinovia: How did he propose?
He planned a little weekend getaway to Upper Lake, in Northern California. Said he just wanted it to be relaxing, have a picnic by the lake and stay in a cute bed & breakfast. The idea of him proposing to me totally crossed my mind too! We spent all of Saturday lounging around but when the day ended and he still hadn’t asked me, I convinced myself it wasn’t going to happen on this trip. Sunday came, we had a great breakfast, drove around and then searched for a spot to have a picnic.
We must have stopped at five different locations for our “picnic”, because we just drove and drove for hours. He kept saying he wanted to find a better spot. When we finally found a spot that he was happy with we set up our little area, I started reading my book and he went off with our video camera to film himself the minutes before he was going to ask me to marry him (so I later found out).
ParatiNovia: What were the main colors & theme of your wedding?
Yellow, grey and sage were our main colors. Picked because they’re the colors I wear so often and compliment each other so perfectly.
As far as setting a theme for our wedding, we wanted a blending of modern, graphic design elements, and traditional Mexican touches to come together to make an awesome wedding. We also wanted it to be super fun!
Hey ladies….check out more details tomorrow….
