These two beautiful people are so full of love for each other, and they were a dream

Quiet moments like these 🖤

What is your dream wedding?
Is it a big party with all your friends, a small and intimate with just family or do you want to elope?

Why? Because even through a global pandemic, isolation, loneliness and heartbreak - people still find solace, love and happiness in each other.
