Seven years into photographing weddings, April and I have seen a LOT of ceremonies, so it takes a bit to make our jaws drop. But Lauren and Geoff’s Baker Beach ceremony in San Francisco did just that. Completely gorgeous. And what we love most is that Lauren and Geoff did their whole wedding day THEIR way. Heartfelt, joyous ceremony, an impromptu stop for a drink at an awesome pub before the reception (just the two of them – and us, of course!), and rather than a traditional reception, one big cocktail party with amazing food.

I guess you could say that Fawn pretty much had us at “hello.” We were over the moon when she showed up to our initial meeting in her cute vintage yellow dress, talking of her plans for her afternoon garden wedding to the ultra-cool Brian McCool, complete with vintage table cloths, chalkboards, cute little felt birdies and fabric bunting. (We got a preview of some of her DIY projects at their engagement session.) Fawn and the girls all wore vintage and almost every single adorable detail was crafted or collected by Fawn or one of her fabulous friends. She & Brian even got a screen printing lesson at Grow Your Own Media where they got their tote bag party favors printed! And they had one of the sweetest invitations we’ve ever seen, designed by Le French Circus, featuring an illustrated version of Fawn & Brian in their wedding clothes including their bicycles and their kitties sitting in the tree behind them. J’adore!
Here are some of our favorite images from Fawn & Brian’s super fun and colorful day:
