Meredith & Nick :: 4-16-2016 :: Wedding in Claremont

The amount of cuteness from Meredith and Nick was just overwhelmingly good :) This day was so unconventional in so many ways, but knowing these two and their quirkiness, you wouldn’t expect it any other way. These two met, fell in love, got engaged and got married at Pomona College with their wedding being held at the Seaver Alumni House. We began our day at Casa 425, an amazing boutique hotel in Claremont, where Meredith got ready with her sister and her mom and we documented all the fun little details (including Meredith’s stunning BHLDN dress!). After make-up and hair were done and the dress on, we all traveled over to the Seaver House for a first look. These two, not being ones to take things too seriously, had some hilarious reactions when seeing each other mixed of course with their genuine joy at finally getting married. We next took a tour of Pomona’s campus around some of Meredith and Nick’s favorite spots including taking some photos in and around the bio building where they first met and around one of the most beautiful places on campus, the main quad. After their portraits were done, we met up with their bridal party, Nick’s brother and Meredith’s sister for some bridal party shots and then it was time for the ceremony to begin! My favorite party of the ceremony was when their officiant (the professor who mentored Nick and introduced these two to each other) was talking about all the people there to support them and love them and a baby started crying. It was perfect haha :) After having a little difficulty during the ring exchange, they were finally pronounced Mr. and Mrs. We retreated to the house for some family photos and then these two strolled into their reception where they ate and socialized with their guests. The only formal events at the reception were some toasts and the rest of the time was filled with eating the delicious desserts provided by SomeCrust Bakery and The Donut Man, enjoying the photo booth set up (couch and other vintage rentals from the lovely ladies of Thrifted Sisters Vintage Rentals) and socializing. It was such a special, unique and sentimental day and we are so honored we could be a part of it!

Cherie & Max :: 4/9/2022 :: Wedding in Los Angeles

Another postponed wedding couple that finally got to have their day! YAYYYYYY! This was the most wonderful pink wedding of my dreams and every detail was off the charts!  Their venue, Ruby Street in Highland Park,  was a perfect setting to apply all their incredible colorful touches and to have a fun, beautiful day! We started out with Cheri's details and getting ready at the venue. After Cherie had donned her incredible pink and sparkly Lazaro gown and Max was all suited up in his custom pink suit, these two shared their first look!  After some more photos around the venue and meeting up with their wedding party, it was finally time for their sweet and short ceremony. Can we talk about the DIY ribbon arch for a second? These two created it themselves and knocked it out of the park ! Their wonderful ceremony was filled with laughter, personal vows, exchange of rings, a hand fasting ceremony and finally these two were officially married (again! They officially tied the knot last ye

Sasha + Brenden :: 6/22/24 :: Wedding in Fullerton

Image
Our first to two weddings this year and boy oh boy was it a good one (despite the unseasonably warm heat!). Sasha and Brenden tied the knot at the stunning Muckenthalar Mansion , just a few miles from our home! Our day with the couple started with their first look, wedding party and couple's portraits. Before we knew it, it was ceremony time. After one of the quickest (but sweetest!) ceremonies ever, featuring a "first shot" of tequila, these two were officially official! After family photos and some detail shots it was time to party. During the reception their guests enjoyed dinner, speeches, cake cutting, parent dances and creating a custom work of abstract art for the couple to hang in their home! Once the dance floor was opened with a giant group shot, we stole the couple away for some magical golden hour photos at the end of our time with them. A beautiful end for a stunning day!

Maya & Satish :::: Engagement Session at Carbon Canyon Redwoods

Image
Like many couples these days, these two cuties met online and the rest is history! After getting engaged earlier this year, they are planning a dual wedding incorporating traditional and western celebrations which will be so unique and beautiful! For their session they wanted to incorporate their pup Cybil (the shepherd mix) as she has been a huge part of their relationship from the very beginning and two different outfits reflecting their two celebrations. We had such a blast with these three on this dark and moody day at the Carbon Canyon Redwood grove and we are so excited for what lies ahead! Click any image to launch a larger viewing window. Enjoy!
