Anny and John first met at a summer camp, when she was just about to start as a freshman at UC Berkeley and he was a senior at Cal. They soon became good friends with a bit of a crush, but it took quite a bit of luck, determination, and quite a bit of time…
Happy Father’s Day! Here are just some of the many great father-daughter moments from the past year!
An hour east of Sacramento, there lies a tiny little town called Amador City. Today, with less than 200 residents, it is but a charming little remnant of the California gold rush. Nyesha and Eugene had vacationed here and stayed at the Imperial Hotel a year before, and they decided it would also be the…
Just seeing the way that he looks at her would be an inspiration to even the coldest-hearted cynic. Both Matt and Carla said it and exuded it throughout the day– they were just so happy to be marrying each other, and they could not wait to begin their marriage together. They waited through long distance…
They envisioned an outdoor wedding at a Napa Valley winery, V. Sattui. The courtyard would be strung with lights and guests would be seated in the cozy little square. But mother nature had other plans when the forecasts all turned to rain. Of course, Christine and Scott didn’t let it stop them for one second….

You can see it in the way their eyes sometimes lock– they’ve found their sense of home in one another. Catherine and Joe first met when they worked together at the same accounting firm, and it took years of friendship and dating before Joe– never the planner– planned a romantic beach getaway and proposed. On…
It was a beautifully warm day on 9.10.11, perhaps the most popular wedding date of the year. Kathleen got ready in her hotel room in South San Francisco, and then she hopped into the gorgeous 1946 Rolls Royce Bentley to join her husband-to-be at the church in San Francisco. A perfect way to start the…
It’s true, as Andy joked– it’s equally inconvenient for everyone. Even from the nearest airport we drove past several vineyards, the occasional corn field, and plenty of woods– until we reached the giant lake and the little town. Chautauqua. It may be far, but it is truly a sanctuary, with its tightly clustered houses referencing…
Their love stretches back in time and reaches gently into the future. There is never a sense of hurry. Rather, a feeling of space and suspension as they linger in every moment. Magali and Sam are both incredibly kind, warm, and thoughtful, and together they are simply wonderful. We were so honored to be there…
Are you ready to get married? Most people joke or laugh or have a slight look of disbelief when you ask them this question. But he responded simply with a smile, I’m ready.
