Wedding Date: May 24th, 2026
May 24th is a date deeply rooted in legacy for Mariana and Tommy—it’s the exact day Mariana’s parents were married. Throughout the evening, the toasts beautifully echoed just how much her parents mean to them, and how much they’ve taught the newlyweds about love, patience, and choosing to be the best version of yourself for your spouse.
While Mother Nature had her own ideas about “perfect” wedding weather, the nonstop rain couldn’t dampen the joy. Mariana and Tommy completely embraced the day we were given. With a little bit of luck, a positive attitude, and a trunk full of clear umbrellas (which I always bring along just in case!), we captured some absolutely stunning portraits.
Their day began with private vows read separately while getting ready, followed by a gorgeous, traditional Latin mass at their church. Everything about the day felt intentional, right down to their choice of yellow as an accent color—a perfect burst of sunshine for a rainy day! We wrapped up the celebration at Great River Golf Club, which is always an incredible, seamlessly run venue with so many beautiful backdrops (even in the rain).
It was such a spectacular day surrounded by wonderful family. Cheers to the next 100 years, Mariana & Tommy!
