I have known both Ninna and Eric for several years now, and it’s always been a pleasure to meet up with them in various cities as our friends gather together. It was such an honor to help them capture their wedding in Chicago this spring. With Ninna’s kindhearted nature and Eric’s enthusiasm for new ideas and…
Dalen sat in front of Stephanie at a new church they were both visiting one day, and they met during the unusually long ‘meet and greet’ time after the service. Stephanie left the service thinking she’d never see Dalen again…until he walked by her a few blocks from her home. They ended up walking together to Trader…
Mawwage! Mawwage is wot bwings us togeder today. Yes, the ceremony from The Princess Bride. A (Jewish) friend dressed in full Catholic bishop regalia kicked off the wedding with his hilarious rendition of the ceremony, performed with a straight face all the way through. This happened after the bride walked down the aisle with a…
All throughout Friday and up until the morning of the wedding, dark clouds doused the area with a hearty bout of rain– much-needed for the drought-ridden state of California, but much-dreaded for Rebecca and Dave’s dreams of a wedding on the beach. We were all ready to be good sports about it all. The wedding would be perfect,…
Adrienne and Jenton are two peas in a pod. Their quirky energy and generous sense of humor always leaves them laughing together. Their wedding day was graced with a million beautiful details hand crafted by Adrienne and a beautiful first dance kicked off with singing from the groom himself. It’s hard to imagine two people better suited…
They first met at business school in Philadelphia, where they founded a startup together, and they later moved to California, the land of startups, where Jenny joined the team at Pebble and Adam joined Google. The two of them were full of smiles on their wedding day. The lovely Buena Vista Winery served as a perfect…
Katherine and Josh tied the knot as their friends and family looked on. And as they smiled and wiped away tears, an insistent whimper came from the back of the ceremony. There, behind all the rows of chairs, was Scout, their corgi pup who, having been left out of the center of attention, decided it…
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…
I absolutely loved Grace and Andy’s unconventional approach to their wedding. Everyone says your wedding day flies by too quickly, said Andy, addressing the crowd. So we decided to drag this out as long as possible. They went for a two-day affair. Day one was an adorable ceremony and outdoor party at the Rengstorff House in Mountain…
They met at the CIA (the Culinary Institute of America and not the Central Intelligence Agency). They had grown up across the country from each other, Ashley in Pennsylvania and Chad in Las Vegas, each with a wide range of interests. But their love of cooking drew them to California. They bonded over food, laughter, and wine,…
The story of how Jen and Mike met would not be complete without all the stories of how Jen and Mike almost but did not meet: their mutual friend Tom could’ve introduced them but decided Jen wasn’t Mike’s type; when Tom threw a party, Jen attended, but Mike skipped it; and when Tom invited Jen to…
There are a lot of things that float through your head on move-in day your freshman year in college. What are you going to major in? Who will your friends be? Is your roommate crazy? It might not occur to you to think, “Will I meet the love of my life today?” But of course that’s exactly what…
