Married at Verandas, Manhattan Beach
The first look!
Congratulations, Meghan & Derek! Thank you for sharing your amazing day with us!
Okay, we’re going to make this quick and get right to the photos because we’ve been making Meghan & Derek wait long enough for their sneak peek. But I just have to mention that one of my favorite moments of the day (one of many!) was when we first saw Meghan and she was so excited to see us & show us all her detail goodies because she knew how excited WE would be. The wine theme, the Old Hollywood glamour with that stunning Jim Hjelm dress, J. Crew jewels, a colorful bridal bouquet and that AMAZING birdcage veil. Meghan, girl – You SO get us!
It was one of the most gorgeous days of the summer and we were so honored to spend it with Meghan, Derek and their very special group of friends and family. Here are some of our favorite images from the day:
We’ve been keeping the wonderful Laura and Daniel waiting a bit (wedding season has put us so far behind in blogging – eek!) for the sneak peek of their Sunset Restaurant wedding, so we’ll be short on words and long on photos. But I will say that it was a complete pleasure working with this beautiful couple and their equally lovely families, as well as all the vendors they had on board. Congratulations, Daniel and Laura!

We have been looking forward to Nicole & Mark’s wedding at The Ritz for what seems like AGES! and we’re thrilled to finally be able to share it with all of you. Nicole & Mark both work in the event design industry, so we knew their wedding would be amazing…but we had no idea! Not only was the decor so elegant & lovely, but Nicole & Mark made sure to throw a spectacular party to entertain all their friends and family. From the Champagne Angel pouring the bubbly from a ring the air to the rockin’ band to the Bubble Girls floating in the pool, there was absolutely no end to the fun! And, of course, it was the sweetness & laughter shared between Nicole and Mark that really made the day extra special. Thanks to Jeannie at Details, Details for coordinating this gorgeous event and to the awesome Chelsea Elizabeth for helping us capture all the details & performers throughout the day.

Rachel & David were married at one of our favorite locations, Café Pinot in downtown LA, on one of the hottest, but most joyful, days of the summer so far. For Rachel & David it was all about the celebration of their love and they got the party started straight out of the gate. After a quick portrait session at the new downtown Ritz-Carlton (and a quick stop in a pigeon infested alley…eek, but totally worth it!), the day for Rachel, David and their guests actually started with the cocktail hour. Genius! Rachel & David were able to connect with their guests right from the start, cool down with a chilled drink, exchange their emotional vows and party into the night. Rachel was stunning in not one, but TWO amazing dresses (starting with a slinky Nicole Miller and surprising David as she walked down the aisle in a sparkly Reem Acra) and David couldn’t take his eyes off of her all night. These two are smitten with one another and their love just glows. We couldn’t wipe the smiles off of our own faces!
Here are some of our favorite images from the day:
