THE WEDDING DAY
"We picked this venue because it was so different and unique. It felt like an oasis in the middle of the desert. The minute we saw it, we knew it was for us," Banus said.
The newlyweds could not “wait to commemorate a decade of being together with a romantic and unforgettable evening in Joshua Tree.”

As they committed their lives to each other, the couple was surrounded by 90 of their loved ones for the outdoor ceremony and followed strict precautionary COVID-19 measures.
For the reception, the guests snacked on Caribbean, and Cuban-inspired food, which the bride shared was a nod “to our cultures.” On the big day, the Florida native wore two dresses.
