Veronica + Floyd: Engaged!

Veronica and Floyd have been together for 7+ years.  They met while working together at an afterschool program for children.  Now a teacher, Veronica is thrilled to be planning the details of her November wedding!  One of the first places these two went when they first started dating is Lacy Park in San Marino, CA.  The park was the perfect spot for their fun engagement pictures.  With a beautiful rose garden and wide open spaces, they were able to bring some things that expressed their personalities!

Victoria + Tony: Married at Calamigos Ranch

Victoria and Tony met while attending school at UCLA, and celebrated their 5th anniversary of being together on their wedding day this past Saturday.   Tony is currently a successful video game designer for the biggest selling game of all time, Call of Duty and Victoria is exploring the PR field and is pursuing her passion for event planning.  It was no wonder their talent and creative mix lead to lots of fun and personal details!    Victoria and Tony chose yellow and grey as their wedding colors, as also seen from their engagement session at the Santa Monica pier.  These two tied the knot this past weekend at one of my favorite venues, Calamigos Ranch in Malibu!

Sakura & Nathan: Backyard Wedding

Sakura and Nathan’s wedding took place on Saturday afternoon at Nathan’s family’s home in Garden Grove.   The details of this wedding were planned to a T, with lots of bold style, handmade details, and cultural elements.IMG_2658x.jpg

The style of the wedding was BW stripes with red accents.  While some brides do a second dress for the reception, Sakura wore a white dress that showed her striped BW stockings and 3 different shoe changes (well, actually 4 if you count the ones she wore while getting ready).  Her first set was a fierce red high heel with deadly spikes!  Nathan wore a BW striped tie and red converse shoes.

Sakura and Nathan chose not to see each other until the ceremony; however, beforehand they wanted to do some formal pictures with the bridal party.  Sakura had a mix of bridesmaids and bridesmen.

Sakura waited with her father in a BW canopy tent as guests arrived.  I think everyone was pretty surprised when her sisters unzipped it and Sakura came walking out to a Muse song.  Guests were seated at their tables as they watched.
