Mariko & Daniel | Brazilian Room | Berkeley Wedding Photography
From the first moment that Daniel saw Mariko decked out in her wedding finery, he let out a Daaayum girl! with a huge grin on his face. They both checked each other out, excited, happy, and a little bit silly. As we drove from the Claremont Hotel to their wedding venue at Tilden Park, the excitement of the day took a turn for the reflective. Mariko shared, I had given up on finding love. I thought maybe I would have to find someone who was okay, and I could just make it work. I didn’t think I would meet someone like Daniel. So I am so thankful to have met you met you. Truly.
It’s all of these emotions, from the fun and celebratory to the love-struck and appreciative that truly make the most beautiful of wedding days. Thank you so much, Mari & Daniel, for sharing that with me!
Dapper men and lovely ladies.
One of the many hilarious moments of the day: meeting the “Mexican bus” that Daniel chartered to take the guests from the Claremont Hotel to the Brazilian Room at Tilden Park.
We stopped for some lovely portraits along the way to the venue.
A sunset-lit mountain. The perfect backdrop for a ceremony.
Congratulations, Mariko & Daniel! I’m so glad you both found each other too. =)
