KIERA & YUSUF

Some love stories are worth celebrating twice.

Kiera and Yusuf had already said “I do.”

But marriage isn't only about the ceremony. It's also about the people you want standing around you when you celebrate it.

So they did it again.

This time, the reason was simple: to share the occasion with Kiera's family.

Their daytime wedding at Bell and Blossom was small, intimate and wonderfully relaxed. There was none of the pressure that sometimes comes with trying to make a wedding enormous. Just family, friends and two people getting another chance to celebrate being married.

And then there was the bridal party.

Any possibility of this becoming a quiet little affair disappeared rather quickly.

There was laughter, silliness and plenty of personality, which gave us exactly the sort of moments we love photographing. The ones that happen between the photographs everyone knows they're supposed to have.

Bell and Blossom gave us a beautiful setting, but it was the people who made the day.

Proof that a wedding doesn't need to be enormous to have enormous amounts of joy.

And that sometimes saying “I do” once simply isn't enough reason to stop celebrating.
