Late-Night McDonald’s: The Perfect Post-Wedding Snack
I’m all about embracing the unexpected and capturing those fun, spontaneous moments that make a day truly memorable. For Josh and Hannah, their celebration took a deliciously surprising turn at the end of the night! After a full day of unforgettable moments, they decided to make an impromptu late-night snack run to McDonald’s in Monterey, CA. Nothing says "we’re having the best time" like a quick pit stop for some fries, nuggets, ice cream cones, soda, paper rings (que the Swiftie fan) and Marvel happy meal toys to round out the evening. It was the perfect, carefree way to cap off their special day—and a story they’ll be sharing for years to come!
McDonald’s After Wedding: French Fries in a Dress
Their May wedding on the central coast might just be my absolute favorite! Hannah was absolutely glowing, not just as a bride, but also as a soon-to-be mom, and she had one thing on her mind: McDonald's french fries! After the wedding wrapped up, all the goodbyes were said, and every photo was taken, we made a fun, unexpected stop at McD’s to satisfy her craving. It was the perfect, laid-back end to such a beautiful day!
When we arrived at McDonald’s, Josh and Hannah were in their wedding attire. We had the idea to capture it all so we asked the employees and they gave us the green light to shoot inside! As they enjoyed their food the couple took a quiet moment to sign their marriage license over nuggets, ice cream, and sodas. I loved the way they ended their night, just the two of them, ending their wedding day in such a personal and unforgettable way.
What made this night unforgettable was its spontaneity. Josh and Hannah's decision to end their wedding day at McDonald’s wasn’t just about satisfying a craving but ending the night with something so simple but unique after a Northern California wedding. This is a reminder to couples everywhere that your wedding day doesn’t have to fit in a mold and it should reflect your personality and you as a couple!
