Alex & Brandon // Big Bash On Treasure Island
Alex and Brandon had one big bash on Treasure Island! Their wedding was a quintessential San Francisco affair and every piece played a role in Alex and Brandon’s story. The church they chose to say “i do” was minutes from their place in North Beach, a neighborhood they have called home for years. Their guests filled the seats in the church and quickly filed onto shuttles that would drive them over the bridge to Treasure Island, where the party began. The big white tent welcomed all their guests and hosted a beautifully designed spread for dinner. Bustle Events really outdid themselves with this design…I mean look at all that gorgeous detail! The florals were designed by none other than Natalie Bowen who just captured the 1920s whimsical garden party feel that Alex was hoping to achieve. From sea foam greens, mint, blush and coral…it was such a beautiful party!! Dancing the night away under the big white tent, across from the iconic SF skyline…what could be better? Oh wait…fireworks. It really wouldn’t be the big bash on Treasure Island without the big fireworks at the end, how would it?

Chris & Jordan // Holman Ranch Winery, Carmel
I’m so happy that Style Me Pretty featured Jordan and Chris’ wedding and told their story in all its glory. They are such a lovely couple who are incredibly sweet and totally in love. It was such an honor to be part of their day. Their wedding was stunning, a perfect blend of sophistication and elegance. I just loved how they transformed Holman Ranch and created a party that really set the bar high. Chris has such a love and true passion for wine. So it was only fitting that his collection of fine wines made its debut along with his choice of italian imported salami for cocktail hour. The entire menu and dining experience revolved around the perfect wine pairings. It was magical. Jordan and Chris were surrounded by their close friends and family all weekend and really focused on celebrating with the people they cared most about. I had the pleasure of photographing their rehearsal dinner as well, which allowed me to share more time with their incredible families. It was such a special weekend…one to remember for sure.

Featured! 100 Layer Cake // Christina & Justin, Durham Ranch
Christina and Justin got married at one of my favorite venues, Durham Ranch. A romantic wedding with the gorgeous backdrop of St Helena, rolling hills and a lush landscape made up a perfect ambience. It was magical. The ladies of Enjoy Events Co did it again with their gorgeous styling and modern design. Shotgun Floral Studio killed it on florals, with the pops of orange and pink against the black and grey accents. I can’t say enough about this wedding and how much fun it was to spend the day with Christina, Justin and their families. They are such a sweet couple who are just too cute for words. You can read more about their story and see even more photos from their wedding featured on 100 Layer Cake.

TIm & Anna // Costonoa Wedding featured in Martha Stewart Weddings
Oh I am so happy to finally get to share this wedding! I am so so thrilled to see it featured on the cover of the November issue of Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine too! Can we say dream come true? Yes. It truly is such a sweet reward on top of being a part of Anna & Tim’s day, to see it grace the pages of the ultimate wedding mag. To say this wedding is near and dear to my heart is an understatement and I have been anxious to share it. It was a gorgeous day from beginning to end — with a team of incredibly talented vendors who came together to create a memorable day. Anna and Tim, although from the East Coast, chose Costanoa as their wedding destination and family from near and far gathered together for a weekend full of celebration. We had the best time exploring and shooting in the sand dunes overlooking the gorgeous views. The outdoor setting really captured the warmth of love that connected everyone together. Anna and Tim are two of the sweetest people you will meet, it truly was a joy to photograph and share this day with these two. You can also see more from their wedding on Ruffled!
