The ceremony at Complesso Vignola Mattei: A beautiful, historic venue
Their ceremony took place at Complesso Vignola Mattei, an ancient church that has been transformed into a civil ceremony venue. The historic setting added so much charm and significance to their wedding day. Masie and Brad exchanged deeply personal vows during the ceremony, creating an incredibly emotional moment. It was such a privilege to witness this intimate moment, where their love and connection were so evident.
