coast lines + carnivals
“I wanna love you, dancing on the floor
we keep dancing, which makes me love you some more.”– just friends
After waiting nearly an entire year due to postponing, Kim & Willy tied the knot on a sunny day in Asbury Park – and the city was positively bursting with summer energy around them. Their day was a beautiful love letter to their journey together – from photos in front of the legendary Stone Pony where they’ve attended many shows, to the coincidental carnival taking place across the street from their venue (they met while working as performers at Six Flags!). They capped off the day with a sweet and wildly entertaining brother/sister dance, an epic Frank Turner singalong, and a few cheers in front of the ferris wheel. Kim + Willy – they say the show must go on, and this was one hell of an opening night! Here’s to forever!
