Faith + Alex are sweet + adorable and have the most infectious smiles! We can’t wait to shoot their wedding next year at one of our favorite spots in San Diego, the Darlington House!

Melissa + David are the sweetest couple you will ever meet, and these high school sweethearts had one amazing wedding celebration at the Inn at Rancho Santa Fe in San Diego! They had so many lovely details, many of them handmade, that created such a fun, happy environment. Bright pops of greens and yellow were found everywhere, and there were so many lovely details that they could of had a blog post of their own - from the striped green paper straws that said “drink and be married!”, to the fun croquet field, the succulent favors and name displays, the amazing hand made bunting flags, and hand painted signs…! They even created the awesome green, yellow, and white cake display and photo booth wall themselves from salvaged wood. Amorology did an amazing job coordinating the days events and setting up all the lovely details - they are simply the best at what they do! The day unfolded beautifully, and The Flashdance kept the party going all evening long!

I can’t help but smile looking through Jordana + Mike’s wedding. These two are unbelievably in love and such amazing people. We met with them a year and a half before their wedding date, and had been waiting forever to document their wedding day! Their ceremony and reception was held at the lovely Darlington House in La Jolla, and the couple did so many of the design elements themselves, from collecting all the vintage bottles for the table centerpieces to creating the look of amazing dessert display, complete with candy and cannolis and a variety of cakes! Jordana’s dress was one of Monique Lhuillier’s first lace dress designs! Her awesome purple shoes are Steve Maddens. The day could not have been more perfect…good food and good company and lots of dancing! Jordana + Mike started the dancing off with an awesome choreographed salsa dance that they had been working on for months….and they were amazing! Congrats again Jordana + Mike…we love you guys!

Jessica + Andrew are two of the sweetest people you could meet, and their wedding was filled with classic beauty! I loved the clean navy and white palette of their wedding, the lovely purses that Jessica hand made for her bridesmaids, and table number journals for guests to write well wishes to the couple! The day started at the Pasadena Langham…Jessica’s hair and make-up was done by the talented Kelly Zhang. Their ceremony was held at the Holy Family Church in South Pasadena, and they exited the church with all their guests cheering and ringing noise makers! The reception was at the Oakmont Country Club and the night was filled with tons of dancing and ended with an amazing dessert display, with all kinds of delicious pastries and donuts!

Jennifer + Mark’s wedding was pure fun! Their ceremony and reception was held at Bowers Museum in Santa Ana, which was an awesome venue right in the heart of Orange County. Their day was filled with so much laughter and love and more laughter! I loved the color palette of soft pink, taupe with pops of navy! Jen’s dress is by Rosa Clara, her shoes by Steve Madden.
