Described by Tina as a 'tweet cute', she met Cesar online after replying to an underground speakeasy on the Lower East Side of NYC. The venue announced its closure during COVID with a tweet and Tina wrote back with a clever remark, catching Cesar’s attention. "He was was surprised to find that my entire Twitter was dedicated to birdwatching across NYC's parks, and followed me to learn more about birds", she told us. "I was pleasantly surprised when I saw my new follower was coincidentally the founder of my favourite app, 1 Second Everyday. 1 Second Everyday is a video journaling app that empowers users to record 1 second every day of their life, and I had been using it since 2017 to sentimentally document my new life in New York when I moved here after college. In a way, Cesar had been making my life better and making memories with me even before we'd even met."

By now, you’ve probably seen those viral “wedding recap” reels on TikTok or Instagram – the ones that somehow appear just hours after the ceremony. The ones that make you go: Wait, how did they already post that?! Well, there’s a good chance a wedding content creator was behind it. A wedding content creator is a service provider who creates primarily video content on their phones. The idea is you have a skilled person who is capturing all of the moments of a wedding, candidly. That is also the person, a couple would put in charge of recreating any trending videos or transitions, lip syncs, etc. They often provide clips in a quick turn around, so the couple can share their wedding “in real time” or within a the few days after, on their social media. Some wedding content creators even offer a wedding day takeover, so they really are posting the wedding day in real time. We spoke to Falon Mei of Vegas Wedding Content Creator all about this rising, and sometimes controversial, new trend.

As a gay, non-gender conforming couple, tradition wasn’t something AJ and Ryan felt obligated to follow. That freedom shaped every part of their day into something intimate and imaginative. "We had no expectations on us so we could make it our own, start our own traditions", they wrote. "We skipped pretty much all of the normal wedding traditions bar not seeing each other the night before the wedding. We kept that one for the excitement and to give each other space to decompress after the hectic build up."

t's not often you see gothic inspired weddings on white sand beaches, but that's exactly what felt right for Koleen and Tay. Both hairstylists with the same February birthday (!) they chose a private stretch of Mexican coast because Koleen had always dreamed of getting married by the ocean wearing black. Tying the knot the day before Halloween, right in the middle of Día de Muertos celebrations, it was the perfect setting for them.

Every now and then, a shoot lands in our inbox that makes us want to scream YESSSSSS and throw our laptops across the room in pure excitement. This is one of those shoots. It’s not just visually stunning, it’s visionary. Bold, sculptural, mythic and modern all at once. A wedding editorial that doesn’t just break the mould - it tosses it into a volcano and dances in the ashes.
