Erin + TJ | wedding

Erin + TJ were married at the Ocean Institute in Dana Point, one of my favorite Orange County venues! These guys are an amazing couple with the cutest baby I have ever seen - so sweet and adorable! The wedding day was truly a reflection of their love and one awesome celebration. In the morning, TJ went surfing at San Onofre with his groomsmen to start the day off right. The couple got ready at the Laguna Cliffs, and then we headed to the beach to take advantage of the gorgeous California light. During the ring exchange at the ceremony, TJ surprised Erin with a diamond ring, and I just loved her reaction! They had the band the Tijuana Dogs play all night long, and the reception was an awesome party! The day was definitely filled with lots of laughter, happy tears, and joy.

Kristen + Jeff | wedding

It poured rain on Kristen + Jeff’s wedding day, but I think that it perfectly fit San Francisco in the Fall! And it gave Kristen a chance to wear her awesome Hunter rain boots with her wedding dress! These two are really so amazing, and were up for anything…even pictures on the beach under an umbrella. They were married at the gorgeous Legion of Honor Museum, and although they had originally planned an all outdoor ceremony, the rain didn’t stop them - they held their ceremony under the lovely stone pillars in the Legion courtyard and it was absolutely…perfect. Their reception was held in the museum amongst the works of art and the rain outside only added to the cozy feel inside.  Here are just a few of the many details:

We’re in Taiwan!

First off, I want to wish everyone back home a Happy Thanksgiving! We’re currently in Taiwan to document Tina + Brian’s amazing wedding day and our last wedding of 2010! Yesterday was our first full day here in Taipei, and we’ve already had a pretty awesome adventure…walking all around the downtown area, taking the gondola to the tea town of Maokong, and visiting the bustling night market of Shilin all while using the really awesome public transit and pretty much having no idea what people are saying! The only Chinese/Taiwanese words we know are “thank you” and “good day!” We’ll have pretty limited internet access while we’re here, but we’ll do our best to get back to everyone by the time we come back on Dec 3rd. Here’s a quick shot of the foggy city view from the Maokong gondola….

Bethany + Ethan | wedding

Bethany + Ethan had an intimate wedding celebration at Bethany’s childhood home in Escondido. Their wedding was filled with warm and personal touches and many, many details. Bethany’s mom hand sewn all the gorgeous quilts that were a main part of the homespun decor. Handmade vintage ribbons and banners were strewn about the house saying things like “celebrate” and “eat drink and be married!” Bethany’s wedding dress was custom made on Etsy, and all the flowers and vintage decor display was designed by the talented Annette Gomez. Guests wrote well wishes to the couple on a vintage typewriter during the cocktail hour, and a personal chef created the most delicious menu! The evening ended with family and friends dining in candle light under an old oak tree, and eating slices of lemon bars and organic banana cake!
