Wedding ~ Saritha + John ~ San Diego, CA

Marissa — Sun, 18 Jul 2010 10:27:48 +0000

Forget about Pacquiao versus Mayweather…the fight of the year was T-run (aka Saritha) versus Nord (aka John) in the rice fight of the century! Among the many symbolic rituals we witnessed at Saritha and John’s traditional Hindu/Vedic wedding, the pouring of rice on each other’s head (Talambralu) was definitely our favorite. Scroll down to see this tradition in action! This moment was just a small slice out of an entire day of amazing moments, laughs, and tears. We are thrilled to have been part of the Saritha and John Experience!

Stefanie + Thomas ~ Wedding ~ Lakeside, CA

Marissa — Sat, 03 Jul 2010 03:20:17 +0000

Stefanie and Thomas RULE!!! The king and queen of the night presided over their loyal subjects (almost 500 of them!!!) and celebrated the joyous occasion of their wedding. The wedding took place at the home where Stefanie grew up…how cool is that! The colors, the lights, and the entire setting were all perfect! I don’t think they could have found a more romantic or picturesque location to be married. Check out some of our favorite images of this amazing day. Especially the cake cutting…BEST CAKE SHOT EVER!!!

Wedding ~ Rachel + Tim ~ Point Loma

Marissa — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 08:50:16 +0000

Rachel and Tim are two champions that are meant for each other! On a day that could not have been more windy, with a sky that could not have been more blue, they racewalked their way down an imaginary aisle on the edge of the Point Loma cliffs (near the Cabrillo National Monument). The scene was incredible with Rachel and Tim standing on the edge of that cliff, with nothing but a sheer drop to the the Pacific Ocean way down below. Laughter, tears, and pennies flowed freely all day, cupcakes were voraciously devoured, and the dance floor was never empty! Here are some of our favorite shots.

Brandy + Pancho ~ Zihuatanejo, Ixtapa, Mexico Wedding

Marissa — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 03:25:17 +0000

We have never been part of a wedding quite like Brandy and Pancho’s. Brandy and Pancho, plus over 100 of their closest family and friends, got ready at Las Brisas Resort in Ixtapa, Mexico. Just a short cab ride away, everyone soon headed over to Villa de la Selva for the wedding ceremony and reception. It is an unbelievably gorgeous and romantic place for a wedding!

Brandy and Pancho were married on a ledge overlooking the ocean, nestled against a thick tropical jungle. They looked into each other’s eyes as they spoke vows straight from the heart and as the sun set over the Pacific. And though the sweltering heat threatened to dampen our clothes and frizz out our hair, and great strikes of lightning and thunder made promises of imminent rain, nothing could have brought Brandy and Pancho down from cloud nine that day. Here are are few of our favorite shots of the day. And click here to see the full slideshow!

Becky + Jeremy ~ Wedding ~ Levyland Estate, Carlsbad, CA

Marissa — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 10:47:56 +0000

From the first day we met Becky and Jeremy, the day we chased them around Petco Park and all over the Gaslamp Quarter, we were hooked! From Becky’s incredibly infectious smile, to Jeremy’s rat-pack coolness, to the undeniable energy bursting from them when they’re together…these two are so much fun to be around!

With Becky’s impeccable attention to details, they planned a dream wedding up at the Levyland Estate in Carlsbad. This gorgeous Contemporary piece of architecture was the perfect location. Everyone ate, drank, and danced the night away! Check out a few of our favorite shots of the day, and click here for the full slideshow!

Tricia & Jeremy ~ Wedding ~ La Jolla

Marissa — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 07:12:28 +0000

Tricia & Jeremy’s gorgeous outdoor wedding took place late this summer along the La Jolla coast. We came to know Tricia through an amazing organization called the Young Women’s Leadership Program. Each year, Tricia mentors a group of young, impressionable women, teaching them leadership, confidence, initiative, and many other life skills. We’ve come to know Jeremy for his dedication to health and golf fitness. It’s no wonder why these two individuals, who are so dedicated to helping others, have found their perfect match in each other. We are so inspired by Tricia and Jeremy’s story! For Jeremy, this day is memorable for more than one reason. Not too long ago he suffered a serious injury, marking one of the most difficult struggles in his lifetime. On this day, he has come full circle and has arrived at one of the happiest moments in his union to Tricia.

This perfectly sunny San Diego day started at the Grande Colonial Hotel and at the Bull & Bear Bar & Grill in La Jolla. We all headed over to the La Jolla Financial Building on Prospect Street to find a picturesque outdoor venue for a ceremony and tented reception overlooking the ocean. As the sun set, the party was in full swing with everyone celebrating the gorgeous Tricia & Jeremy! Here are a few of our favorite images from the day. You can view their wedding slideshow here.
