With the boundless Black Sea lending an air of mystery and the romantic changing colours of the sunset sky, it was a picture perfect moment for the bride and groom to bask in each other’s love after exchanging their vows in hauntingly beautiful Crimea. The dreaminess of the bride’s lace gown, lilac ribbons and floral bouquet was a beautiful contrast against the enigmatic rock beach and waves. Thanks to Alexander Santi for this lovely set of photos, and to JRweddings for pulling together a beautiful shoot.

Julia Romancheva of JRweddings: “Probably every one of us would love to hear these words uttered at our marriage ceremony, ‘Wherever you’re going, I’m going your way.’ We knowingly chose this foreland overlooking the boundless Black Sea for this couple’s marriage ceremony as there is no better way to emphasise the power of those words.”
