Behind the Scenes of a Wedding at an Ancient Spanish Monastery

Niaja and Danthon’s wedding at The Ancient Spanish Monastery in North Miami Beach was full of happy tears!

Niaja and Danthon had to reschedule their wedding day three times due to the pandemic. This beautiful couple finally got the March wedding day of their dreams at The Ancient Spanish Monastery in North Miami Beach!

Do you remember this gorgeous couple from their engagement session >>> here? They are both total naturals in front of the camera and they are not afraid to show off their love for each other. Their wedding day was no different!

My couple started the day by having a first look before saying I do. There were so many happy tears when Danthon turned around to see his gorgeous bride in her romantic wedding dress for the first time. It’s hard not to be filled with emotion when you see his reaction below!

The Ancient Spanish Monastery is an architectural treasure. With its sweeping garden, historic halls, and stone architecture, it is truly a photographer’s dream!!  Placing Niaja and Danthon in the covered passageways (also known as the Cloisters) for their first look added a breathtaking effect to their photos.

When it came time to say I do, Danthon was again overcome with emotion at the sight of his gorgeous bride heading down the aisle toward him. The couple couldn’t say I do without including their furbaby, Draco at the ceremony. The newlyweds love their furbaby so much that Draco even has his own Instagram account! You’ll get to see Draco in his dapper doggy suit in the photos below!

My couple’s wedding day was a full-on celebration! When it came time for their reception Niaja changed into a second bridal gown. The gown belonged to the bride’s mother but she had it altered to make it modern and sultry. Before you know it the newlyweds were both on the dance floor with fog guns and a light show having the time of their lives with the ones they love most!
