Liz + Brice

Thirteen years and many, many adventures together, Liz and Brice decided the best way to kick off their next adventure together officially as the Dunnings was with one amazing intimate beach wedding in Costa Rica. To say the least, Liz and Brice’s wedding was one heck of a celebration for this couple that compliment each other — as in opposites attract! In fact, task driven and super organized Liz planned her whole wedding! From the flowers to the food, it was one beautiful and delicious wedding. And if you’re wondering if anyone ended up in the pool, with DJ Zach starting up the party, it was the first thing Brice did after his first dance with Liz!

Congrats you two!
