Laguna Beach Wedding Photography - Tivoli Terrace

This couple was so sweet and laid back. Brian and I had a great time at their wedding and loved the details! :) Here are some pix from their big day at Tivoli Terrace

Getting Ready






I thought this was cool - very neat looking chest.....


and inside a bottle of wine for them to open at their 25th anniversary or when things start to get a little rocky. They put letters in the box to each other. Instead of doing a unity candle or sand during the ceremony, they nailed the box closed (along with their maid of honor and best man). Very cool and different idea (too bad I don't drink - otherwise I would have loved to do this!)




The groomsman always have something else in mind other than photos. :)


Love the shoes!


During the ceremony at Tivoli Terrace. I love when they do flowers on the walkway.











I have been to A LOT of weddings in the last seven years. I can count on one hand the times I actually had tears. My wedding, my friend Melissa's, and this one. For some reason - during the father daughter dance I got a couple tears in my eyes. It was SO obvious how much love they had for each other. Very touching.

The dancing crowd!

Hotel Valley Ho Wedding in Scottsdale, AZ

Brian and I got to go to Scottsdale AZ for a BEAUTIFUL wedding a few weeks ago. The bride and I have been friends since I can remember (probably my first friend in life). Her hubby is one of the sweetest guys I have ever met! They are such an awesome couple and it was so fun photographing their wedding. WARNING _ LOTS OF PHOTOS. I couldn't decide what to put on - so I am putting on a LOT!










The Guys:






The Bride with her sister and bro-in-law






The Ceremony:








Father Daughter Dance:






With destination weddings - it is common to take photos the day after with just the bride and groom. There is no stress and we can take our time finding cool spots. This day was definitely worth it!


























This is where they got engaged - so it's significant to them:










Can't do AZ without a cactus!


All in all - a gorgeous wedding and awesome weekend. Thanks guys!
