       Andreia and Steve share a passion for bodybuilding. Andreia is a teacher and Steve works at a gym. Being healthy in mind and body is their way to happiness. I fell in love with this couple when I realized how intense was the love between these two driven human beings and how they express it during the wedding day. Somehow they became role models and a source of inspiration for all their family and friends and even for me.
