“Not only did he propose but he gave me my dream proposal. Only Moneyede and I know the special words that were exchanged that night, the color of the sky, the scent in the air and that is something that he and I will keep close to our hearts for the rest of our lives. It’s a moment in time that is uniquely ours.”
“After our countless random encounters, we finally got the hint – our lives overlapped in so many ways because we were meant to be together. We’ve been inseparable ever since.”

Can you imagine making it official here? Darian and Moneyede did! The venue is absolutely stunning!
The newlyweds enjoy every single moment of their oceanfront reception party. For their first dance they held each other as Stevie Wonder’s “Ribbon In the Sky” played.
“My favorite memory was my family serenading me during our reception dinner. They sang Bruno Mars – ’Just the Way You Are”, and I could not stop crying.”
“We spent an entire week eating our way through Italy,” Darian shares. “It was amazing. We were such bums that week. We didn’t do any work. Just ate and drank and talked to each other. The Italians call it “dolce far niente,” which translates to the joy of doing nothing – it was a great change of pace.”
Darian and Moneyede’s closest friends strike a pose for the camera.
“We all went cliff diving the day after the wedding. Jumping off that 30 foot cliff was an exhilarating experience that we will all never forget. There was even a special jump where Moneyede and I jumped in holding hands. I guess we took the plunge in more ways than one.”
