It’s no surprise that a women from South America loves to dance, especially Salsa. But a guy from Russia?
“We meet back in 2015 the day before Thanksgiving at Cuba Libre while I was out with some friends” Vanessa told me before their fall wedding at Union Trust. “We talked for a little and asked me for my phone number. Then we went dancing the weekend after…we danced all night and have been together ever since”.And dancing has remained an important part of their relationship.
As you’ll see in a few of their reception images below, Vanessa and Andrew ditched the idea of a standard first dance (well not at first anyway) and broke into some amazing Salsa to everyone’s surprise and delight! And I have to say that I was seriously impressed with Andrew’s skills, he danced beautifully with Vanessa.
The entire day was a beautiful mix of two cultures and was just as enjoyable for us as it was for our wonderful bride and groom.
Here are some of our favorites from their Fall Wedding at Union Trust, beautifully captured by Ralph Deal Photography.
My heartfelt congratulations to Vanessa and Andrew. We wish you both a lifetime of joy, happiness, and lots of salsa! And thank you to Thomas and everyone at Finley Catering for making it a great day! We had three Fall Weddings at Union Trust this year and all were perfect! Thomas and his staff are always a pleasure to work with and we look forward to seeing them soon.
