I’ll never forget the day I met Catherine and Lori. It was at a bridal show where we struck up our first conversation. They told me how they were both HUGE Disney Fans, and they were planning a Victorian Era Peter Pan Themed wedding. The challenge they were facing, however, was that their venue was […]

Every once in a while I meet a couple at a coffee shop or restaurant, and we almost instantly click. Such was the case almost exactly a year ago when I first met with Amanda and Chris. If the meeting took any longer than usual, it was because we were gabbing more about our mutual […]

I have known Matt for many years, and he introduced Kris to me at a party a few years ago. But I didn’t realize just how perfect these two were for each other until they asked me to work with them on their wedding. What sums up their wedding/relationship the best to me was what […]

Multi cultural weddings have been a favorite of mine for a long time now.

Janelle and Nader met at Pierce […]

I’ve attended some “magical” weddings in my day, but tonight’s wedding added a new dimension to that term.

After all, it was at Dapper Day where […]

When two college kids from California meet each other in the airport heading off on a class trip to Italy, then proceed to spend the whole week of that trip getting to know each other, you know romance is bound to bloom. Then, when the same two people move to Washington DC to start a […]

One of the great things about my job is on occasion someone will ask me to travel with them to do a destination wedding. When Fiona and Sean told me they wanted me to come with them up to Bass Lake, I started packing immediately! Not just because the photos of their venue, The Pines […]

Pickwick Gardens is one of those beautiful oases hidden in the urban jungle that is Burbank. The famous Garden Wedding Pavilion, with its backdrop of trees, flowers, and a waterfall, yet covered from the July afternoon heat, is where Michelle and Chris began their new lives together.  This day was not just about the two […]

Sometimes you hear a couple’s story that just defies the odds. Such was the case with Amy and Andrew. Meeting each other at a crossroads in their lives, these two were told not to get involved with each other, because it would never last. Two years later, I was sitting down with Amy, Andrew, and […]

From the moment I met Hannah and Dan, I knew I wanted to be a part of their wedding. More so, I wanted to tell their story. These two met back in High School in a Sports Medicine class. He was grading her on her skills to tape up an ankle, and she thought he […]
