“I’ve always loved the tradition that you go to a church and get married,” says Bride & Blossom Featured Bride Lorenza. “Both Pete and I are Catholic and our faith is very important to us.

At the same time, the city is full of beautiful churches ideal for a religious ceremony.

It stuck though, and we’ve been together ever since!”
