This is the TRUE ending of Cinderella.... they lived happily ever after!
I see the hands of a elderly grandmother hugging a young bride, which is touching.
I always love to see a Javanese wedding, unique and sacral, yet very beautiful :)
I'm wishing I could see another pic with the complete view of the dress! It's beautiful
I LOVE the idea of using sparklers. I've never seen them used for a wedding before now. Unique idea for a night time event!
I know it most probably is a genuine shot, but this being 2017, my brain jumps automatically to" Photoshop"! I hope the couple are doing OK. They are facing two different directions in this photo :)
I can't find the right words to do describe how touching and beautiful this is.
Nice! But stick that hand out of the pocket (that's just me being European :D - we find it arrogant and condescending to keep your hand in a pocket while interacting with someone)
I think it should have been the other way around... the couple being the bigger focus and the magnificent windows would have still shown through with glory
It would have been so simple to have Photoshopped OUT the lights in the parking lot. I think it would have made for a better photo.
very bohemian and fun - love the joy and sweetness of their looks and how natural the flowers and her crown are for her dress and hair, and how nontraditional the dress is and colors are...wonder where this is?
Wow - he can jump pretty high. Fairly certain I'd have been kicked in the head by mistake.
Sorry, but I've never understood why women run into the water wearing the most beautiful dress of their life.
I think she's missing her Mother who has passed away before the wedding. Her friends are supporting her as she takes a moment.
I wasn't too keen on this one at first, but looking back at it I wonder if it was a captured moment. If they are in a big city and walking over one of those air vents that blew her veil from her head and into the air. If that is the case then it is a great captured moment that may not mean much to us from the outside, but could be a fun memory for he couple.
This is the worst humblebrag I've ever seen. Whoever claims these are the best wedding pics of 2016 have terrible taste.
What, where, how?? I like it but it puzzles me. In isolation it would be hard to know it was a wedding.
Am I the only one who doesn't find staged events and photo shoots "touching"?
Why they should be always touching? These are ceremonies and they might evoke variety of emotions, e.g. beauty, solemnity, etc. They mark the important date, these staged events. They are sincere.

I think that there a lot of different emotions that go on during a wedding. For me, there were important moments of realizing that nothing in my life would ever be the same....and that is pretty heavy stuff. Moments of realizing that I would never visit with my mother alone again, that I would never go to such and such a place by myself again, etc. A wedding is more than just a big party. It is a ritual of transformation--two people are doing more than just connecting their life stories with each other's. They are also connecting their inner lives to each other's; and you leave the wedding a different person than you were before you got married. So these photos reflected some of this.
