Ari and Justin hold each other in a field

Ari & Justin

From perfectly golden leaves to crispy ones falling like a gentle snowfall from a gust of wind during the ceremony, as a relative would call it, the day felt “spiritual.” Ari and Justin had a very clear vision on what their day would look like; natural, romantic, cozy, simple, classy and lots of candles. And having been a witness, it was exactly that.
