Rebecca and Fabyan created one of the most unique, stunning, and fun wedding days. When you get to know them, everything about their wedding made sense for them and their story! Their relationship is one that is full of care, romance, love, selflessness and friendship and that was all reflected so beautifully in their big day. These two met when they worked for the same company about 5 years ago. They started dating just a couple months after becoming friends through their job and have been together ever since. Eventually they switched to the same department, which provided some challenges for their vacation days so Fabyan ended up finding a new job so that they could spend more time together. Their relationship grew through really happy things like getting a home together and caring for their dog, Fin. But it also grew through really hard things like Fabyan slipping while they were moving and breaking his elbow. They both talk about this time in life as being one where their relationship grew through having to selflessly care for one another!
Fabyan eventually popped the big question while they were in Mexico with his family. They had just finished up a private dinner on the beach when Fabyan got down one knee while they were standing by a beautiful driftwood tree. Of course, Rebecca said yes and that brings us to this gorgeous day! Fabyan said that he is a hopeless romantic, so he was excited about the growing anticipation that would come with waiting to see Rebecca in her dress. And the moment did not disappoint! As you’ll see below, Rebecca and Fabyan had a day filled with sweet moments and amazing details and I can confidently say that it lived up to their hopes for the day – which was to be surrounded by friends and family in a fun and carefree atmosphere!
