Mohring / Vivero Wedding Deering Estates



On February 28, 2009, the very beautiful and sophisticated Gisela Mohring married the love of her life, Dr. Richard Vivero. Gisela and I began planning this wedding in early 2007. She had a clear vision of what she wanted and what she liked. From the very beginning stages, Gisela had chosen her colors and knew that her style was geared towards what she called "Vintage Glam".





The celebration took place at the breathtaking Deering Estates. The ceremony area overlooked the bay and tall palm trees. The dinner area was neatly arranged in their intimate courtyard and the dancing took place inside the historic mansion. It was a night full of love, glamour and incredible shining stars in the sky!



Thank you, Gisela and Richard for allowing me to be part of your special day and many thanks to Brett Tyler for the outstanding pictures!!
